DOI: 10.1002/bies.201700014
Abstract: Intracellular bacteria were recently shown to employ eukaryotic prenylation system for modifying activity and ensuring proper intracellular localization of their own proteins. Following the same logic, the proteins of viruses may also serve as prenylation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/cm.21748
Abstract: Microtubules (MTs) are essential for many cellular processes including establishment of cell shape and polarity, chromosome segregation, vesicle transport, and nuclear positioning. Human cells express 22 tubulin isoforms that have both overlapping and distinctive functions.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15051367
Abstract: We have shown that many proteins and enzymes (ovalbumin, β-lactoglobulin, lysozyme, insulin, histone, papain) undergo concentration-dependent reversible aggregation as a result of the interaction of the studied biomolecules. Moreover, irradiation of those protein or enzyme… read more here.
