The first selective relaxant binding agent (SRBA), Sugammadex sodium (SGS) is used to reverse anesthesia. A study of the process related and degradation products will help to optimize process parameters and also to develop the analytical methods and set the quality standard for a quality control strategy in pharmaceutical industry. During the manufacture of SGS, all the process related impurities are controlled in every stage and process related and degradation products are controlled in the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) as per ICH guidelines. A total of nine process related and degradation impurities of SGS (Impurity-A to Impurity-I) were isolated and characterized by using LC/ESI/QTOF/MS/MS and NMR studies.

Protein phosphorylation is a crucial regulatory mechanism in cellular homeostasis. The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) incorporates protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) into its tegument, yet the biological relevance and mechanisms of this incorporation remain unclear. Our study offers the first characterization of the PP1 interactome during HCMV infection and its alterations.

The Moscow strain effectively infects and replicates within human melanoma cell lines and primary glioblastoma cells, while sparing non-malignant human cells. Infection leads to the selective destruction of neoplastic cells, mediated by functional viral replication.

Unlike other ubiquitin-like family members, UBL5 is structurally and functionally atypical, and a novel role in various biological processes and diseases has been discovered. UBL5 can stabilize the structure of the spliceosome, can promote post-transcriptional processing, and has been implicated in both DNA damage repair and protein unfolding reactions, as well as cellular mechanisms that are frequently exploited by viruses for their own proliferation during viral infections. In addition, UBL5 can inhibit viral infection by binding to the non-structural protein 3 of rice stripe virus and mediating its degradation.

African swine fever (ASF) is a lethal disease of domestic pigs that is currently challenging swine production in large areas of Eurasia. The causative agent, ASF virus (ASFV), is a large, double-stranded and structurally complex virus. The ASFV genome encodes for more than 160 proteins; however, the functions of most of these proteins are still in the process of being characterized.

The tick-borne encephalitis virus is a pathogen endemic to northern Europe and Asia, transmitted through bites from infected ticks. It is a member of the family and possesses a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome encoding a polypeptide that is processed into seven non-structural and three structural proteins, including the envelope (E) protein. The glycosylation of the E protein, involving a single N-linked glycan at position N154, plays a critical role in viral infectivity and pathogenesis.
