    Hyperglycemia induced cathepsin L maturation linked to diabetic comorbidities and COVID-19 mortality

    Qiong He, Miao-Miao Zhao ... Jin-Kui Yang
    High glucose levels promote CTSL maturation and translocation from the endoplasmic reticulum to the lysosome via the ER-Golgi-lysosome axis.

    Probing PAC1 receptor activation across species with an engineered sensor

    Reto B Cola, Salome N Niethammer ... Tommaso Patriarchi
    A new genetically encoded sensor robustly detects exogenously applied PAC1R ligands in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo (in zebrafishes and mice) serving as a useful resource for probing PAC1R functions.

    Observing one-divalent-metal-ion-dependent and histidine-promoted His-Me family I-PpoI nuclease catalysis in crystallo

    Caleb Chang, Grace Zhou, Yang Gao
    In crystallo observation of HNH family I-PpoI nuclease cleaving DNA suggests that one divalent metal ion and a histidine are required for catalysis.
