    Coupled ion binding and structural transitions along the transport cycle of glutamate transporters

    Grégory Verdon, SeCheol Oh ... Olga Boudker
    Crystal structures of an archaeal homologue of mammalian glutamate transporters in apo and ion-only bound outward- and inward-facing states reveal ion-coupled conformational changes supporting mechanisms of coupling, gating, and transport.

    Cryo-EM structure of alpha-synuclein fibrils

    Ricardo Guerrero-Ferreira, Nicholas MI Taylor ... Henning Stahlberg
    The alpha-synuclein fibril structure reported here buries residues 50-57 at the interface between its two protofilaments, suggesting that familial Parkinson's disease associated mutations in these residues lead to a structure not compatible with the one presented here.
