This study identifies Lachesin as a mosquito receptor for multiple arthritogenic alphaviruses using CRISPR screening in Aedes albopictus cells.

This study identifies small molecules that stabilize diverse amyloidogenic immunoglobulin light chains by reducing conformational dynamics and proteolysis.

The paper identifies receptor-binding polymorphisms in WEEV that explain shifts in receptor dependencies and enable nonpathogenic strains to infect neurons.

This study determines the structures of EEEV and SFV spike glycoproteins bound to VLDLR, revealing distinct binding modes that explain how different alphaviruses use the same receptor.
