October's SLAS Discovery features part one of a special two-part special issue, "Membrane Proteins: New Approaches to Probes, Technologies and Drug Design." In the opening editorial, Guest Editor Mariafrancesca Scalise, Ph.D., (University of Calabria, Italy) outlines the importance of membrane proteins in drug design and explains her rationale behind the selection of articles included in the issue. The accompanying reviews and research papers explain the evidence behind, and examples of, why membrane proteins have become attractive targets for the design of novel drugs. Available until Sunday, October 20.

In the October Special Issue of SLAS Technology, "Engineering Innovations for Fundamental Biology and Translational Medicine," Guest Editors Soojung Claire Hur, Ph.D., and Deok-Ho Kim, Ph.D., (Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA) introduce a collection of articles and reviews focused on the advancement of technologies that are playing a major role in shifting healthcare closer to more predictive, preventative and personalized medicine. This special collection focuses on how scientists and clinicians are transforming diagnostic testing and treatment protocols to prescribe per the individual, not the general population. Available until Sunday, October 20.

Journal of the American Chemical Society
Developing an active and stable metal single-atom catalyst is challenging due to the high surface free energy of metal atoms. In this work, researchers report that tailoring of the 5d state of Pt1 single atoms on Co3O4 through strong electronic metal–support interactions boosts the activity up to 68-fold higher than those on other supports in dehydrogenation of ammonia borane for room-temperature hydrogen generation.

Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News
Sleek CRISPR systems get almost all the attention. They rely on single-protein nucleases instead of multiunit effectors, which are, presumably, too unwieldy for gene engineering applications. Yet CRISPR jumbles have been given a tumble by scientists at Duke University. These scientists used a multiunit effector system to turn target genes on and off in human cells.

They can make tiny cell structures visible: cutting-edge light microscopes offer resolutions of a few tenths of a nanometer — in other words, a millionth of a millimeter. Until now, super-resolution microscopes were much slower than conventional methods, because more or finer image data had to be recorded. Together with partners from Jena, researchers from Bielefeld University have now developed the super-resolution SR-SIM process further.

The age of quantum computing may have begun not with a flashy press conference, but with an internet leak. According to a paper posted briefly — and presumably mistakenly — to a lab site, physicists at Google have used a quantum computer to perform a calculation that would overwhelm the world's best conventional supercomputer. Although the specific computation has no known use, the result means scientists have passed a milestone known as "quantum supremacy."

It wasn't that long ago that chemists who mentioned in polite scientific society that they were trying to develop a drug to block KRAS would have been met with a sympathetic look — maybe even a condescending chuckle. The subtext? Good luck with that. After all, chasing KRAS, the most notorious cancer-causing protein, has always been something of a fool's errand. Scientists spent 30 years trying to tame the beast. For 30 years, they failed.
Until now, that is.

Drug resistance has been declared as one of the biggest threats to global health in 2019 by the World Health Organization, with MRSA becoming one of the most serious concerns. Hong Kong cannot be spared from the worsening scourge of MRSA. In 2018, there were 1,218 reported cases of community-associated MRSA, or a seven-fold of the figure in 2007 — the year the disease became notifiable in Hong Kong.

Every biological reaction is a chemical reaction. The exchange of carbon dioxide for oxygen in our lungs and blood cells, for example, is caused by molecules releasing chemicals and reforming with new ones. The uncontrolled replication of cancerous cells is the result of broken chemical compounds miscommunicating. The appeal of developing improved drugs to promote helpful reactions or prevent harmful ones has driven organic chemists to better understand how to synthetically create these molecules and reactions in the laboratory.

The Scientist
When I visited Ricaurte, Colombia, in 2016, I was surrounded by men with long faces and prominent ears. As we spoke, they would ask repetitive questions while mumbling and failing to maintain eye contact, and when they shook my hand, they turned their body away from me. They were interested in me but were too shy to interact. This type of anxiety-related approach-withdrawal behavior is typical of those with fragile X syndrome.
