Carbohydrate metabolism is closely associated with health and many diseases and relies mainly on glycosidases and glycosyltransferases: carbohydrate processing enzymes that break and create glycosidic bonds, respectively. Controlling their activities is vital for understanding pathological processes in, and developing therapeutics for glycan- related diseases. Recently, new targeted protein degradation (TPD) technologies, which disable disease-related proteins … Read more

Natural hazards such as earthquakes, floods, and landslides pose significant risks to human populations, infrastructure, and ecosystems. These hazards rarely occur in isolation; they often trigger or interact with other processes, leading to multi-hazard effects. For instance, an earthquake may trigger landslides, which in turn can block rivers, causing floods. Accurate prediction and simulation of … Read more
