Genome-wide Identification of Type VI Secretion System Effectors via Machine Learning Uncovers Three New Bacterial Toxins

The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a molecular harpoon used by 19% of sequenced bacteria to inject toxic proteins into microbial competitors or host cells. Despite its widespread distribution, many T6SS effectors (T6Es) remain unidentified in bacterial genomes. Here, we developed an XGBoost classifier integrating 4...

Bovine coronavirus evolution preserves spike architecture while remodeling key functional regions

Bovine coronavirus (BCoV) is a major pathogen of cattle and the closest known ancestor of the human coronavirus OC43, yet how viral evolution reshapes spike protein structure and function remains poorly understood. Here, we combined comparative genomics, glycoproteomics, cryo-EM, and antigenic characterization to defin...

Distinct mechanisms of antibody-mediated HCV neutralization revealed by nanobody-guided epitope mapping

This study illustrates how alternative antibody repertoires can reveal functionally important antigenic surfaces that are underrepresented in conventional human antibody responses, providing new opportunities for the rational design of next-generation HCV vaccine immunogens.
