The TFIIH subunit Tfb3/MAT1 can be split into two parts to uncouple the TFIIH kinase and DNA translocase modules, resulting in unfocused C-terminal domain phosphorylation.
Integrative structural analysis identifies the structural basis and key residues responsible for IDE conformational dynamics that control the unfolding and selective degradation of amyloid peptides.

In Gambian infants, positive growth from 0 to 5 months of age predicted more mature brain networks, which in turn predicted cognitive outcomes at 3-5 years.
Transcriptome-wide profiling of bacterial RNA pseudouridylation maps modification landscapes and nominates candidate regulatory sites, offering a resource and foundation for future mechanistic studies of Ψ function in bacteria.

Connexin43 is the most ubiquitously expressed connexin in the human body, and the CO2-dependent opening of Connexin43 hemichannels implies that CO2 may influence many physiological processes.
A range of biophysical techniques is used in combination with computational analysis to understand whether glutamine-binding protein binds its ligand via the induced-fit or conformational selection mechanism.
