A comprehensive two-hybrid analysis to explore the L. pneumophila effector-effector interactome

The paper uses a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify novel effector-effector interactions in L. pneumophila, doubling the known number of such interactions.

Formation of a giant unilocular vacuole via macropinocytosis-like process confers anoikis resistance

The paper shows that disrupting the actin cytoskeleton leads to the formation of a giant unilocular vacuole, which confers anoikis resistance in cells losing matrix attachment.

Next-generation large-scale binary protein interaction network for Drosophila

The paper generates a high-confidence binary protein interaction network for Drosophila using yeast two-hybrid screens and integrates it with existing data to create a comprehensive reference network.

Host diversity and behavior determine patterns of interspecies transmission and geographic diffusion of avian Influenza A subtypes among North American wild reservoir species

This study estimates interspecies transmission and geographic diffusion of avian influenza A subtypes among North American wild birds using genomic sequences, finding host diversity and ecology influence spread patterns.

Structural basis for targeting the human T-cell leukemia virus Tax oncoprotein and syntenin-1 interaction using a small molecule

This study identifies the structural basis of Tax-1 interaction with syntenin-1 and demonstrates small-molecule inhibition of this interaction to target HTLV-1.

Exostosin-1 Glycosyltransferase Regulates Endoplasmic Reticulum Architecture and Dynamics

This study shows that Exostosin-1 glycosyltransferase regulates ER morphology and dynamics, affecting cell size and metabolic processes in mammalian cells.

A SARS-CoV-2 BioID-based virus-host membrane protein interactome and virus peptide compendium: new proteomics resources for COVID-19 research

The paper uses BioID and mass spectrometry to identify SARS-CoV-2-host membrane protein interactions and virus peptides, providing new proteomics resources for COVID-19 research.

The first finding of lichen Solorina saccata at an algific talus slope in Korea

This study reports the first lichen ecology investigation at an algific talus slope in Korea, identifying 27 lichen species, including the newly recorded Solorina saccata, and predicts its potential habitats in South Korea.
