Induction and Stabilization of Peptide Alpha‐Helices on Silica Nanoparticles
Covalent docking turns silica nanoparticles (SNPs) into α‐helix‐stabilizing surfaces. Dynamic imine formation allows peptides with lysine residues aligned on one helical face to adapt to the surface before reduction locks the structure in place, while preserving the opposite face for functional recognition.

Coupling biosynthetic noncanonical amino acid production with genetic code expansion enables site‐specific incorporation of azatryptophans into PET‐degrading enzymes (PETases). By isosteric single‐atom editing of a conserved tryptophan, AzaPETases break the activity–stability trade‐off, delivering higher catalytic efficiency at elevated temperature and

Single‐cell atlas of neuroglial dynamics in SNCA‐A53T Parkinson's disease mouse model
We performed single‐cell RNA sequencing of midbrain and striatal tissues from SNCA‐A53T Parkinson's disease (PD) mice, revealing glia‐enriched PD‐risk gene signatures and disease‐specific subpopulations. Transcriptional dysregulation of key TFs (e.g., Rorb, Foxc1) and enhanced neuroinflammatory signaling (SEMA, CCL, MIF) were identified.
