N2 neuraminidases from human H3N2 viruses from 2009 until 2017 can be subdivided into four antigenic groups, with amino acid substitutions near the catalytic site more likely impacting neuraminidase inhibition.

ESAT-6, a virulence factor of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, dimerizes at neutral pH and transitions to oligomers under acidic pH similar to that of lysosome, helping the bacterium evade host defense mechanisms.

Molecular architecture of the secreted NS1 dimer from dengue virus infection in complex with a high density lipoprotein particle.

A detailed characterizations of EDTA-treated Candida albicans cells both in vitro and pre-clinical models led to discovery of a potential live whole-cell vaccine against fungal infections.

Interplay between multiple Legionella pneumophila effector proteins lead to spatial and temporal regulation of the host Rab10 localization to the bacterial vacuole by controlling noncanonical ubiquitin modifications.

Enterococcus faecalis infection elicits a cellular response marked by novel bacterial-host interactions, revealing insights into immune evasion mechanisms in chronic wound infections.

Entomophthora muscae has one of the largest fungal genomes (1.03 Gb) owing to extensive proliferation of transposable elements.
