resido: an R package for exploring amino acid residue composition of peptide and protein sequences
Frontiers in HorticultureAmino acid composition may be used in synthetic biology for fine-tuning amino acid content of plants to improve human or animal diets. One barrier to plant-based diet adoption is insufficiency of key amino acids such as methionine and lysine.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
