    1. Structural Biology and Molecular Biophysics

    Conformational changes, excess area, and elasticity of the Piezo protein-membrane nanodome from coarse-grained and atomistic simulations

    Sneha Dixit, Frank Noé, Thomas R Weikl
    Piezo proteins induce a curved protein-membrane nanodome with an excess area of about 40 nm2 in tensionless membranes and resist tension-induced flattening with a force constant of about 60 pN/nm.

    Dimerization and dynamics of human angiotensin-I converting enzyme revealed by cryo-EM and MD simulations

    Jordan M Mancl, Xiaoyang Wu ... Wei-Jen Tang
    Structural and computational approaches uncover the molecular basis for dimerization, open-closed conformational transitions, and the dynamic behavior of the human angiotensin-I converting enzyme dimer.
    1. Developmental Biology

    Atoh1 is required for the formation of lateral line electroreceptors and hair cells, whereas FoxG1 represses an electrosensory fate

    Martin Minařík, Alexander S Campbell ... Clare VH Baker
    Targeting Atoh1 for CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutagenesis in sturgeon results in missing electroreceptors as well as mechanosensory hair cells, supporting conserved developmental mechanisms, whereas ectopic electrosensory organs develop after targeting mechanosensory-restricted Foxg1, suggesting FoxG1 directly or indirectly represses electrosensory organ formation.
