kontakteUR transforms structural coordinates into a chemically informed contact space to analyze biomolecular interactions and their changes, enabling systematic comparison and functional insights.

The paper uses NMR and simulations to study dynamic motions in the eukaryotic RNA exosome complex, revealing conformational changes and a flexible plug region that blocks RNA pathways.

This study determines the structure of two late-stage PSII assembly intermediates, revealing how Psb32 and Psb27 regulate OEC maturation and Mn4O5Ca cluster preparation.

The Chlamydomonas psb28 mutant shows severe PSII assembly defects, and complexome profiling identifies TEF5 as a novel PSII assembly factor involved in CP47 assembly.
