This paper uses Bayesian ensemble reweighting on unclassified cryo-EM images to quantify RNA folding equilibria, showing agreement with bulk solution measurements.

This study uses molecular modeling and simulations to clarify how IRE1 detects unfolded proteins, revealing binding pockets and interactions that stabilize oligomers and prevent larger complex formation.

The paper uses advanced imaging techniques to elucidate the molecular architecture of the kidney slit diaphragm, revealing a fishnet-like structure and interactions between key proteins.

This paper introduces cryoSBI, a method using simulation-based inference to infer biomolecular conformations from cryo-EM images, achieving fast and accurate results.

The paper warns that counting particle images in cryo-EM can lead to biased estimates of conformational state populations due to noise and orientation uncertainty, and suggests using full image datasets for more accurate modeling.

The paper uses single-molecule imaging and molecular dynamics simulations to study early MET receptor activation in situ, revealing structural dynamics and a refined dimer model.

This study shows that phosphorylation of IGF2BP1 at S181 and Y396 modulates RNP condensate formation by altering low-affinity interactions with RNA and protein partners.

This study identifies how Mycoplasma pneumoniae uses the protein P116 to transport lipids between membranes without ATP, revealing a simplified lipid uptake mechanism.

This study uses cryo electron tomography and simulations to analyze the structure of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in situ, revealing three hinges in the stalk domain that enable orientational flexibility.
