Hydrophobic drug delivery remains a major challenge in nanomedicine due to poor aqueous solubility, weak carrier-drug interactions, and uncontrolled in vivo distribution.

We developed OCaMP, an orange fluorescent GECI engineered from O-GECO1 through targeted substitutions to improve calcium affinity while retaining the favorable photophysical properties of mOrange2.

Our study highlights the multifaceted and context-dependent role of N-glycosylation in modulating κ-LC behavior, with important implications in AL pathogenesis.

We show that some mycobacteria can use endo-D-arabinanases of the GH183 family for inter-bacterial competition.
