Invisible but not inaccessible—Revealing transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins with solution NMR and complementary methods

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins may be ‘invisible’ to direct detection yet remain accessible to solution NMR through equilibrium‐exchange measurements and pressure‐jump experiments. Complementary methods report on mass, stoichiometry, selected distance distributions, morphology, and internal packing.

Substrates bind to residues lining the ring of asymmetrically engaged bacterial proteasome activator Bpa

open access: yesNature Communications
Mycobacteria harbor a proteasome that was acquired by Actinobacteria through horizontal gene transfer and that supports the persistence of the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis within host macrophages. The core particle of the proteasome (20S CP)

The Triplex-Centric Assembly and Maturation of the Herpesvirus Procapsid

open access: yesViruses
Herpesviruses are prevalent infectious agents in humans, with complex structures and life cycles. The viability and detail of a model of capsid assembly and maturation can now be examined against the recently available mature herpesvirus capsids ...

Going viral − Virus‐targeting nanobodies for research, diagnostics and therapy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of viral diseases represents a major threat for global human health. Nanobodies, small binding fragments derived from camelid heavy‐chain antibodies, offer versatile tools for viral research, diagnostics, and antiviral therapy.

The relationship between the Ewald sphere and exit wave explored using focal series electron micrographs

open access: yesIUCrJ
CryoEM reconstructions must be performed along the Ewald spheres to achieve resolutions beyond the projection approximation limit. The linear theory of image formation models the scattering from the specimen and focusing by the objective lens as two ...

Soft motions encoded by the fold and mediated by conserved hinge sites drive V‐ATPase allosteric machinery and autoinhibition

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

Comparing the paths of Hedgehog release in artificial and natural settings

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hh morphogens require solubilization factors to overcome their tight association with the plasma membrane and signal to distant cells, but the precise functions of these factors are controversial. Here, we use published in vivo observations as the most relevant evidence to test their suggested functions and discuss contradictions and gaps between in ...
