Protein adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribosylation is crucial for a proper immune response. Accordingly, viruses have evolved ADP-ribosyl hydrolases to remove these modifications, a prominent example being the SARS-CoV-2 NSP3 macrodomain, "Mac1". Consequently, inhibitors are developed by testing large libraries of small molecule candidates, with considerable success. However, a relatively underexplored angle in design pertains to the synthesis of structural substrate mimics. Here, we present the synthesis and biophysical activity of novel adenosine diphosphate ribose (ADPr) analogues as SARS-CoV-2 NSP3 Mac1 inhibitors.

Background: Charcot foot is a debilitating complication of peripheral neuropathy and is primarily associated with diabetes, leading to structural damage, ulceration, and osteomyelitis. Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is a promising treatment modality for wound healing and bone metabolism.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of PEMF therapy in promoting bone growth and ulcer healing in patients with Charcot foot ulcers.

LONP1 encodes a mitochondrial protease essential for protein quality control and metabolism. Variants in LONP1 are associated with a diverse and expanding spectrum of disorders, including Cerebral, Ocular, Dental, Auricular, and Skeletal anomalies syndrome (CODAS), congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), and neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), with some individuals exhibiting features of mitochondrial encephalopathy. We report 16 novel LONP1 variants identified in 16 individuals (11 with NDD, 5 with CDH), further expanding the clinical spectrum.

Membraneless organelles assembled by liquid-liquid phase separation interact with diverse membranous organelles to regulate distinct cellular processes. It remains unknown how membraneless organelles are engaged in mitochondrial homeostasis. Here we demonstrate that mitochondria-associated translation organelles (MATOs) mediate local synthesis of proteins required for structural and functional maintenance of mitochondria.
