The cell surface display system employs carrier proteins to present target proteins on the outer membrane of cells. This system enables functional proteins to be exposed on the exterior of living cells without cell lysis, allowing direct interaction with the surrounding environment. A major limitation of conventional approaches is the difficulty in displaying large-sized enzymes or antibodies, despite their critical roles in applications requiring functional domains that must remain intact, such as catalytic or antigen-binding sites.

Structural biology is fundamental to understanding the molecular basis of biological processes. While machine learning-based protein structure prediction has advanced considerably, experimentally determined structures remain indispensable for guiding structure-function analyses and for improving predictive modeling. However, experimental studies of protein complexes continue to pose challenges, particularly due to the necessity of high protein concentrations and purity for downstream analyses such as cryogenic electron microscopy.

Hydromorphone is a highly potent opioid used to treat severe chronic pain. It is metabolized primarily by UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)2B7 to form the inactive hydromorphone-3-glucuronide. Given that previous studies have shown that the major cannabinoids, Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), inhibit several UGT enzymes, the objective of the present study was to determine the inhibitory potential of major cannabinoids and their metabolites on UGT-mediated hydromorphone metabolism.

The RbFox RNA binding proteins regulate alternative splicing of genes governing mammalian development and organ function. They bind to the RNA sequence (U)GCAUG with high affinity but also non-canonical secondary motifs in a concentration dependent manner. However, the hierarchical requirement of RbFox motifs, which are widespread in the genome, is still unclear.
