Interplay of p23 with FKBP51 and their chaperone complex in regulating tau aggregation by Pijush Chakraborty, Markus Zweckstetter

“…Here we reveal an Hsp90-independent mechanism by which the co-chaperone p23 as well as a molecular complex formed by two co-chaperones, p23 and FKBP51, modulates tau aggregation. Integrating NMR spectroscopy, SAXS, molecular docking, and site-directed mutagenesis we reveal the structural basis of the p23-FKBP51 complex. …”

Toward accurate hand mesh estimation via masked image modeling by Yanli Li, Congyi Wang, Huan Wang

“…While some semi-supervised and self-supervised methods have emerged, they are constrained by their reliance on high-quality keypoint detection models or complicated network architectures.MethodsWe propose a novel selfsupervised pretraining strategy for 3D hand mesh regression. Our approach integrates a multi-granularity strategy with pseudo-keypoint alignment in a teacher–student framework, employing self-distillation and masked image modeling for comprehensive representation learning. …”
