The protein digestion kinetics of goat milk infant formula (GMF) is previously shown to be more comparable to that of human milk (HM) than cow milk infant formula (CMF). To evaluate whether gastric behaviour contributes to differences in protein digestion kinetics, fresh HM, a GMF and a CMF were subjected to gastric digestion simulating infant conditions. Coagulation behaviour, particle size distribution and viscosity of the digesta were evaluated. After centrifugation of the digesta, total solids and protein distribution, and protein hydrolysis in the cream, serum and pellet fraction were investigated. The GMF and CMF were in general similar with respect to physicochemical and protein breakdown properties. However, a number of notable differences in physicochemical behaviour were observed, which may contribute to faster initial protein digestion of GMF. HM behaved differently from both formulas. These differences provide new insights into the possibilities for improvement of infant formulas.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus propels itself through liquids using a polar flagellum and efficiently swarms across surfaces or viscous environments with the aid of lateral flagella. H-NS plays a negative role in the swarming motility of V. parahaemolyticus by directly repressing the transcription of the lateral flagellin gene lafA.

Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are heterobifunctional molecules that target undruggable proteins, enhance selectivity and prevent target accumulation through catalytic activity. The unique structure of PROTACs presents challenges in structural identification and drug design. Liquid chromatography (LC), combined with mass spectrometry (MS), enhances compound annotation by providing essential retention time (RT) data, especially when MS alone is insufficient.

Motivation: Accurately predicting the degradation capabilities of proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) for given target proteins and E3 ligases is important for PROTAC design. The distinctive ternary structure of PROTACs presents a challenge to traditional drug-target interaction prediction methods, necessitating more innovative approaches. While current state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods using graph neural networks (GNNs) can discern the molecular structure of PROTACs and proteins, thus enabling the efficient prediction of PROTACs' degradation capabilities, they rely heavily on limited crystal structure data of the POI-PROTAC-E3 ternary complex.

The demand for meat alternatives based on ingredients sourced from nonanimal materials with equivalent quality of muscle tissue is increasing. As more consumers switch to meat alternatives, a growing body of research has investigated the tenderness and related texture attributes in plant-based meats to increase consumer acceptance. A deeper understanding of tenderness including the differences and similarities between meat and meat alternatives is crucial to developing products that meet consumer expectations, as it directly influences consumer acceptance.
