PAZy: an expanded and actively maintained database of experimentally validated plastic-active enzymes
The Plastics-Active Enzyme Database (PAZy) is a manually curated resource for enzymes experimentally shown to act on synthetic or bio-based plastics. It was developed to distinguish experimentally verified plastics-active enzymes from co...

ImmunEscpMap: a gene-centered knowledgebase for immune escape in cancer and viral infection
Tumors exploit immune escape to evade elimination, whereas viruses remodel host immunity to replicate or persist. However, evidence to interpret these processes is fragmented across databases, literature, and omics analyses, hindering ge...

Exploring the bistable equilibrium of methylated CpG DNA recognition by the MBD2 protein
Methyl-CpG binding domain 2 (MBD2) is a critical epigenetic regulator that selectively binds methylated CpG dinucleotides, key marks controlling gene regulation and chromatin organization. Understanding the interactions and conformationa...
