De novo-designed β-sheet heme proteins by D'Souza, Areetha, Bhattacharjya, Surajit

“…By contrast, there are only a few known β-sheet proteins that bind heme and designs of β-sheets frequently result in amyloid-like aggregates. This review reflects on our success with designing a series of multi-stranded β-sheet heme binding peptides that are well folded both in aqueous and membrane-like environments. …”

Comprehensive insights into Sitobion avenae preferences and performance on Pakistan’s wheat cultivars leading to identification of potential RNAi targets by Mukhtar, Ruhma, Afzal, Eijab, Noureen, Rabia, Zeeshan, Nadia, Afroz, Amber

“…Sitobion avenae, a notable hemipteran pest, poses a significant economic threat to Triticum aestivum due to its short generation times and high reproductive rates. Challenges like the development of insecticide resistance, the limited impact of insecticidal genes, and associated risks led to seeking a more precise approach like RNA interference. …”
