UniProt: the Universal Protein Knowledgebase in 2023

Alex Bateman et al.

Summary: The UniProt Knowledgebase aims to provide comprehensive, high-quality, and freely accessible protein sequences annotated with functional information. The database has expanded its data processing pipeline and website to accommodate the increasing information content, with over 227 million sequences and plans to include a reference proteome for each taxonomic group. Detailed annotations are extracted from the literature to update or create reviewed entries, while unreviewed entries are supplemented with annotations from automated systems. The new website, https://www.uniprot.org/, offers enhanced user experience and easy access to data, including AlphaFold structures and improved protein subcellular localization visualizations.

SARS-CoV-2 vaccine breakthrough infections (VBI) by Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) and consequences in structural and functional impact

Zainularifeen Abduljaleel et al.

Summary: This study examined the effectiveness of existing vaccines against hospitalization and infection caused by the Omicron variant of COVID-19, specifically for individuals who received two doses of Moderna or Pfizer vaccines and one dose of Johnson & Johnson vaccine or who were vaccinated more than five months ago. The presence of 36 variants in Omicron's spike protein, which is targeted by all three vaccines, has reduced the efficacy of antibodies in neutralizing the virus. Genetic sequencing of the SARS-CoV-2 viral sequence identified clinically significant variants, including E484K, that may pose a risk of infection despite successful immunization.

SARS-CoV-2 spike protein aggregation is triggered by bacterial lipopolysaccharide

Jitka Petrlova et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) can induce aggregation of the spike (S) protein of SARS-CoV-2 at high concentrations. Through various experiments, the researchers confirmed that LPS enhances the formation of S protein aggregates and validated the role of LPS using an inhibitor. Additionally, they predicted that aggregation-prone sequences in the S protein are located near LPS binding sites and conducted molecular simulations to support this finding.
