The paper reports cryo-EM structures of AI-2 exporters from E. coli, revealing their pentameric structure and elevator-type transport mechanism.

The paper shows anionic lipids gate potassium conduction through Kir channels by interacting with the internal gate via fatty acyl tails.

This study presents the X-ray structure and molecular dynamics simulations of OsNIP2;1, revealing how silicon is taken up by plant roots through aquaporins.

The paper shows Acyl Carrier Protein (AcpP) is essential for MukBEF function in Escherichia coli chromosome organization-segregation.

The paper shows MatP and topoisomerase IV ParC compete for binding to the MukB dimerization hinge, with matS binding displacing MatP from the hinge.

The paper reveals the structure and function of CdrA in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms, showing how it mediates cell-cell interactions and how targeting it can inhibit biofilm formation.

The paper uses mass spectrometry to study SARS-CoV-2 main protease dimerization and allosteric inhibition by small molecules.

The paper examines how nucleotide binding and ATP hydrolysis affect the architecture of the Escherichia coli SMC complex MukBEF.

This study identifies MmpL3 as a lipid transporter that binds trehalose monomycolate and phosphatidylethanolamine, providing insight into its role in mycobacterial cell wall biosynthesis.
