Site-specific sulfations regulate the physicochemical properties of papillomavirus-heparan sulfate interactions for entry

The paper investigates how specific sulfation patterns on heparan sulfate affect HPV16 binding and structural activation, revealing their role in virus entry.

Variant-specific interactions at the plasma membrane: Heparan sulfate's impact on SARS-CoV-2 binding kinetics

This study investigates how heparan sulfate modulates SARS-CoV-2 variant binding kinetics to the cell surface, revealing increased affinity for Omicron BA.1 compared to the original Wuhan strain.

Efficient clathrin-mediated entry of enteric adenoviruses in human duodenal cells

This study identifies clathrin- and dynamin-dependent pathways for efficient enteric adenovirus entry in human duodenal cells, highlighting kinetic advantages over other cell types.

Recruitment of apolipoprotein E facilitates Herpes simplex virus 1 attachment, entry, and release

This study shows that apolipoprotein E enhances herpes simplex virus 1 attachment, entry, and release by modifying its interactions with cell membranes.

Simultaneous Membrane and RNA Binding by Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus Capsid Protein

This study investigates how tick-borne encephalitis virus capsid protein binds membranes and recruits RNA, showing electrostatic interactions and membrane insertion.

Protein-lipid interaction at low pH induces oligomerisation of the MakA cytotoxin from Vibrio cholerae

This study shows that MakA, a Vibrio cholerae toxin, forms tube-like structures in acidic conditions through protein-lipid interactions, revealing a novel mechanism of membrane tubulation.

A tripartite cytolytic toxin formed by Vibrio cholerae proteins with flagellum-facilitated secretion

This paper identifies a tripartite cytolytic toxin from Vibrio cholerae, showing that MakA/B/E proteins are secreted via flagella and form pores in membranes, contributing to bacterial virulence.

Membrane insertion mechanism of the caveolae coat protein Cavin1

This study reveals how Cavin1 inserts into membranes through PI(4,5)P2-dependent adsorption and helix insertion, facilitated by flanking regions and co-assembly with Caveolin1.

The ESCRT-III Isoforms CHMP2A And CHMP2B Display Different Effects On Membranes Upon Polymerization

This study compares the membrane interactions of CHMP2A and CHMP2B, finding they have distinct lipid binding preferences and mechanical effects on membranes.
