Designed Amyloid Fibers with Emergent Melanosomal Functions

Hyeyeon Park et al.

Summary: This manuscript demonstrates that short peptides self-associated into amyloid fibers with metal ion-binding ability can exhibit melanosomal functions. The coordinated metal ions and the amyloid structure itself have different functions in accelerating oxidative self-association of dopamine and regulating material properties.

Biophysical characteristics of lipid-induced Aβ oligomers correlate to distinctive phenotypes in transgenic mice

Jhinuk Saha et al.

Summary: Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting cognition and memory, with recent studies showing a correlation between the characteristics of Aβ42 oligomers and their effects in transgenic AD mice, with GM1Os displaying higher toxicity. These findings help to understand how oligomer conformers could elicit AD phenotypes.

Computational Screening of Phase-separating Proteins

Boyan Shen et al.

Summary: Phase separation is a crucial mechanism for the compartmentalization of proteins in cells, with predictors currently biased towards IDR-containing proteins and overlooking those with low IDR content. Incorporating features like protein-protein interactions, post-translational modifications, and immunofluorescence images is essential for accurate phase separation prediction in future studies.
