This study uses hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes to show that cardiotoxic light chains reduce electrophysiological function, while non-toxic light chains have no effect.

This study shows tau proteins from Alzheimer's and CTE folds catalyze Aβ42 aggregation in a fold-specific manner, increasing toxicity and offering new therapeutic insights.

The paper introduces SpyBLI, a cell-free pipeline for rapid, accurate binding kinetics measurement from crude samples, demonstrating its applicability with nanobodies and scFvs.

This study identifies a conformational fingerprint distinguishing AL from MM light chains using SAXS and MD simulations, revealing a unique H state in AL LCs.

A fragment-based computational method designs nanobodies targeting specific epitopes with nanomolar affinities, without requiring high-resolution antigen structures.

The paper tracks the emergence and global spread of 7 SARS-CoV-2 amino acid variants, identifying 6 phylogenetic clades with changing frequencies over time.
