    Toward the cellular-scale simulation of motor-driven cytoskeletal assemblies

    Wen Yan, Saad Ansari ... Michael Shelley
    aLENS implements new parallel methods to resolve cytoskeletal assembly dynamics with high stability, physical consistency, and scalability.
    1. Neuroscience

    Development of schemas revealed by prior experience and NMDA receptor knock-out

    George Dragoi, Susumu Tonegawa
    Novel spatial representations by hippocampal cellular assemblies develop on the framework of preconfigured hippocampal networks whose homeostatic synaptic reorganization is accelerated by prior experience and CA3 NMDAR-dependent plasticity.

    Filament formation by metabolic enzymes is a specific adaptation to an advanced state of cellular starvation

    Ivana Petrovska, Elisabeth Nüske ... Simon Alberti
    A starvation-induced drop in cytosolic pH promotes assembly of budding yeast glutamine synthetase into enzymatically inactive filaments that function as enzyme storage depots.

    Modular UBE2H-CTLH E2-E3 complexes regulate erythroid maturation

    Dawafuti Sherpa, Judith Mueller ... Arno F Alpi
    Erythroid maturation-dependent remodelling of CTLH E3 complex, along with its cognate E2, controls the orderly progression of human erythropoiesis, thus establishing a paradigm for other E2-E3 ubiquitylation modules involved in developmental processes.

    Reconstitution of selective HIV-1 RNA packaging in vitro by membrane-bound Gag assemblies

    Lars-Anders Carlson, Yun Bai ... James H Hurley
    In vitro reconstitution shows how HIV-1 Gag assemblies on membranes can package the RNA genome in the presence of a vast excess of competing cellular RNAs, and that selectivity and immature lattice assembly are deeply intertwined with one another.

    Structural heterogeneity of cellular K5/K14 filaments as revealed by cryo-electron microscopy

    Miriam S Weber, Matthias Eibauer ... Ohad Medalia
    Keratins assemble into tubular filaments with a central density and exhibit structural heterogeneity, which is reflected in alterations of the helical arrangement.

    Dynamic turnover of centromeres drives karyotype evolution in Drosophila

    Ryan Bracewell, Kamalakar Chatla ... Doris Bachtrog
    De novo formation of centromeres creates diverse karyotypes in flies and is accompanied by rapid turnover of centromere-associated satellite repeats.

    Many-molecule encapsulation by an icosahedral shell

    Jason D Perlmutter, Farzaneh Mohajerani, Michael F Hagan
    Computational and theoretical models reveal mechanisms by which protein compartments assemble around enzymes and reagents to facilitate reactions in bacteria, allowing the identification of strategies for reengineering such compartments as customizable nanoreactors.

    The Candida albicans virulence factor candidalysin polymerizes in solution to form membrane pores and damage epithelial cells

    Charles M Russell, Katherine G Schaefer ... Francisco N Barrera
    The molecular mechanism that candidalysin uses to perforate membranes is unraveled, which opens the door to the rational design of inhibitors against candidiasis.

    Design principles for inflammasome inhibition by pyrin-only-proteins

    Shuai Wu, Archit Garg ... Jungsan Sohn
    Computational analyses and biochemical measurements redefine the mechanisms by which pyrin-only-proteins specifically target and regulate the assembly of inflammasomes.
