The SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein preferentially binds long and structured RNAs

This study investigates how SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein binds RNA, finding it preferentially interacts with structured and long RNAs, and proposes a mechanism linking packaging to RNA recognition.

Inhibition of amyloid formation of the Nucleoprotein of SARS-CoV-2

The paper identifies amyloid-forming segments in SARS-CoV-2 Nucleoprotein and designs peptide inhibitors based on their atomic structures to target Covid-19.

The Amphibian Antimicrobial Peptide Uperin 3.5 is a Cross-α/Cross-β Chameleon Functional Amyloid

This paper studies the formation of functional amyloid fibrils by the amphibian antimicrobial peptide uperin 3.5, showing its ability to switch between cross-α and cross-β structures under different conditions.

Staphylococcus aureus PSMα3 Cross-α Fibril Polymorphism and Determinants of Cytotoxicity

This study investigates how PSM3 from Staphylococcus aureus forms cross-α fibrils and how mutations and electrostatic interactions affect its cytotoxicity through membrane co-aggregation.

Structural Insights into Curli CsgA Cross-β Fibril Architecture Inspired Repurposing of Anti-amyloid Compounds as Anti-biofilm Agents

This paper reveals structural similarities between bacterial curli amyloids and human pathological amyloids, leading to the repurposing of anti-amyloid drugs as anti-biofilm agents.
