    Glutathione binding to the plant AtAtm3 transporter and implications for the conformational coupling of ABC transporters

    Chengcheng Fan, Douglas C Rees
    Multiple cryo-electron microscopy structures of a plant ABC transporter exporting glutathione derivatives captured a closed conformation proposed to enforce the export directionality, while a complex central to the coupling mechanism containing both glutathione and closed nucleotide binding domains remains elusive.

    The magnesium transporter A is activated by cardiolipin and is highly sensitive to free magnesium in vitro

    Saranya Subramani, Harmonie Perdreau-Dahl, Jens Preben Morth
    A magnesium transporter from Escherichia coli depends strongly on the lipid cardiolipin and acts both as a sensor and a transporter of magnesium.

    Topoisomerase VI is a chirally-selective, preferential DNA decatenase

    Shannon J McKie, Parth Rakesh Desai ... Keir C Neuman
    Topoisomerase VI selectively catalyzes strand passage of DNA molecules juxtaposed at close to a right angle, which explains the observed chiral-dependent activity and preferential DNA decatenation versus supercoil relaxation.

    A Tad-like apparatus is required for contact-dependent prey killing in predatory social bacteria

    Sofiene Seef, Julien Herrou ... Tâm Mignot
    First identification of the molecular determinants driving contact-dependent predation in Myxococcus..

    The vacuolar-ATPase complex and assembly factors, TMEM199 and CCDC115, control HIF1α prolyl hydroxylation by regulating cellular iron levels

    Anna L Miles, Stephen P Burr ... James A Nathan
    An unbiased genome-wide human forward genetic screen identifies the vacuolar ATPase complex and assembly factors as regulators of HIF stability through their actions on intracellular iron metabolism.

    Topoisomerase VI senses and exploits both DNA crossings and bends to facilitate strand passage

    Timothy J Wendorff, James M Berger
    The engagement of DNA crossings is shown to license ATP hydrolysis and DNA cleavage by topoisomerase VI, a finding with mechanistic ramifications for related GHKL ATPases and meiotic recombination machineries.

    Rdh54/Tid1 inhibits Rad51-Rad54-mediated D-loop formation and limits D-loop length

    Shanaya Shital Shah, Stella Hartono ... Wolf-Dietrich Heyer
    The dsDNA-dependent motor protein Rdh54 antagonizes Rad51-Rad54-mediated D-loop formation during homologous recombination and restricts the length of D-loops.

    How lamina-associated polypeptide 1 (LAP1) activates Torsin

    Brian A Sosa, F Esra Demircioglu ... Thomas U Schwartz
    LAP1 adopts an AAA+ like fold that, while unable to bind nucleotide, can enhance ATPase activity in the neighboring TorsinA protomer in an unusual heterohexameric ring, via an arginine finger.
