Advances in GPCRs Associated With Wnt Signaling Within the Auditory System
ABSTRACT G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) that interact with the Wnt signaling pathway are pivotal for auditory system homeostasis, as they orchestrate inner ear development, hair cell (HC) regeneration, and hearing preservation. Frizzled (FZD) receptors, the core Wnt‐related GPCRs, bind Wnt ligands and co‐receptors (e.g., LRP5/6) to activate both ...

Using cryo-electron microscopy maps for X-ray structure determination
X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) are complementary techniques for structure determination. Crystallography usually reveals more detailed information, while cryo-EM is an extremely useful technique for studying large-sized ...

Integrative structural modelling and visualisation of a cellular organelle
Models of insulin secretory vesicles from pancreatic beta cells have been created using the cellPACK suite of tools to research, curate, construct and visualise the current state of knowledge. The model integrates experimental information from proteomics,

We present a quantitative framework combining cost modelling and queueing theory to estimate hourly access costs, waiting times and congestion levels for shared high‐end scientific equipment. The approach is general, illustrated with cryo‐electron microscopy examples, and implemented in an open‐access online calculator to support evidence‐based ...

Cryo-electron Microscopy Analysis of Structurally Heterogeneous Macromolecular Complexes
Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has for a long time been a technique of choice for determining structure of large and flexible macromolecular complexes that were difficult to study by other experimental techniques such as X-ray crystallography or ...

Cryo‐EM structure of ALC1 in an open conformation bound to a PARylated nucleosome
Reanalysis of a publicly available cryo‐EM dataset identifies a new conformation of the oncogenic chromatin remodeler ALC1/CHD1L bound to a PARylated nucleosome. This new structure reveals the position of the macro domain in the complex, and may help to understand the large conformational change leading to the activation of ALC1.Nucleosomes are the ...

Cryo-electron microscopy reveals human low density lipoprotein substructure.
In the present study, we have examined the structure of human low density lipoprotein (LDL) using cryo-electron microscopy. Human LDL particles were analyzed in a vitrified frozen-hydrated condition, without chemical fixation or any form of staining ...

Significance Statement Euglena gracilis is an early diverging photosynthetic organism with a unique mosaic photosynthetic apparatus. Biochemical and spectroscopic analysis reveals a kinetically slower photosystem I sharing excitation energy with photosystem II in the absence of strict photosystem segregation.
