The paper classifies BECR ribonuclease proteins across domains of life using structural and genomic analysis, revealing new families and refining existing classifications.

ppigFinder integrates genome annotation and AlphaFold 3 for PPI screening, identifying high-confidence interactions in Xanthomonas citri.

The paper identifies a novel family of lipid-targeting antibacterial toxins from Salmonella using in-silico analysis of genomes and biochemical characterization.

SVM and logistic regression classifiers of Mpro inhibitor potency reach test ROC AUC 0.86 and 0.83; potency favours hydrophilic compounds, trading off against drug-likeness.

This study evaluates the impact of the 'Adopt a Bacterium' project on microbiology learning using Instagram, showing improved student knowledge and engagement compared to initial assessments.

The paper uses molecular dynamics simulations and SPR assays to analyze how SARS-CoV-2 variants bind to the ACE2 receptor and how this affects viral spread.

The paper uses molecular dynamics simulations to study how changes in ionic strength affect the stability of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike/hACE-2 interaction, identifying compensatory effects between two regions of the receptor-binding domain.

The paper analyzes M. bovis genomes to identify four global lineages and traces their evolutionary history and geographic dispersal.
