Deep Mutational Scanning for the Study and Engineering of Protein Assemblies

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
This review explores how deep mutational scanning (DMS) can be used to improve understanding and accelerate engineering of protein assemblies, from natural fibers to engineered nanocages. We discuss various types of protein assemblies and their characterization, provide an introduction to the DMS technique, and then highlight examples in which DMS has ...

Two Lineages of DS‐1‐Like G3P[8] Human Rotaviruses in Sabah, Malaysia: Genetic Diversity and Evidence of Reassortment

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Group A rotavirus (RVA) genotype G3P[8] strains typically carry a Wa‐like genomic backbone, but DS‐1‐like G3P[8] reassortants have disseminated globally since 2013. In Sabah, Malaysia, surveillance in 2018–2019 identified frequent G3P[8] strains with a short RNA electropherotype, consistent with DS‐1‐like backbones.

Maize Biofortification Approaches for Fighting Malnutrition in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Maize is a staple food in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA); however, commonly used maize varieties are deficient in essential nutrients, including lysine, tryptophan, vitamin A, and minerals such as iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). As a result, millions of people in this region suffer from one or more nutrient deficiencies that commonly lead to malnutrition ...

Efficient Assembly of Coxsackievirus A16 Virus‐Like Particles in Insect Cells via VP4‐Deficient P1 Expression

Entomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) is a major causative agent of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), yet efficient virus‐like particle (VLP)–based vaccine development remains challenging due to enteroviral structural complexity and the cytotoxicity of the 3CD protease required for polyprotein processing.

CHAPTER 1.1. Disulfide Bonds in Protein Folding and Stability [PDF]

, 2018
Disulfide bonds are unique among post-translational modifications, as they add covalent crosslinks to the polypeptide chain. Accordingly, they can exert pronounced effects on protein folding and stability. This is of particular importance for secreted or
