K5 polysaccharides inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection by preventing spike-proteolytic priming

Maria Milanesi, Chiara Urbinati, Liv Zimmermann…·Giulia Paiardi

This study shows K5 polysaccharides inhibit SARS-CoV-2 by blocking spike binding to ACE2 and furin cleavage, with K5OSH showing stronger antiviral activity than heparin.

Transient interactions between the fuzzy coat and the cross-β core of brain-derived Aβ42 filaments

Maria Milanesi, Zacharias Faidon Brotzakis, Michele Vendruscolo

This study uses MEMMI to analyze the transient interactions between the fuzzy coat and cross-β core of Aβ42 filaments, revealing differences in solubility between familial and sporadic AD forms.
