mPROSS Raises Functional Kv Channel Expression
2026-09-10
The reference study introduces mPROSS, an automated design method that combines phylogenetic information with atomistic energy calculations to improve membrane-protein expression in a single design cycle. Applied to a Kv1.2–Kv2.1 paddle chimera, the method produced functional variants with up to a 14-fold increase in whole-cell current density without measurably changing single-channel conductance or opening probability.

MLF2, USP7, and p53 in Colorectal Cancer
2026-09-04
The reference study identifies MLF2 as a negative regulator of p53 that interferes with USP7-mediated p53 deubiquitination, helping explain how colorectal tumors with wild-type p53 can suppress its activity. Its interaction, ubiquitination, functional, and clinical analyses position the MLF2–p53 axis as a mechanistically relevant route to colorectal carcinogenesis and a useful framework for protease-sensitive protein studies.
