    Differential impact of BTK active site inhibitors on the conformational state of full-length BTK

    Raji E Joseph, Neha Amatya ... Amy Andreotti
    The first-in-class kinase inhibitor, Ibrutinib, destabilizes its autoinhibited Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) target, and a remote resistance mutation causes global structural changes that activate BTK catalytic activity.

    HDX-MS reveals nucleotide-dependent, anti-correlated opening and closure of SecA and SecY channels of the bacterial translocon

    Zainab Ahdash, Euan Pyle ... Argyris Politis
    Hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry reveals nucleotide-driven conformational regulation of Sec protein-channel to help impose directionality for protein transport through the Sec complex.

    Unveiling the domain-specific and RAS isoform-specific details of BRAF kinase regulation

    Tarah Elizabeth Trebino, Borna Markusic ... Zhihong Wang
    An in-depth binding profile analysis of BRAF domains related to RAF activation and autoinhibition unveils the distinctive roles of each domain in selecting preferred RAS isoforms and facilitating autoinhibition.

    SARS-CoV-2 S protein:ACE2 interaction reveals novel allosteric targets

    Palur V Raghuvamsi, Nikhil K Tulsian ... Ganesh S Anand
    SARS-CoV-2 spike protein binding to receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 allosterically enhances furin proteolysis at distal S1/S2 cleavage sites.

    Von Willebrand factor A1 domain stability and affinity for GPIbα are differentially regulated by its O-glycosylated N- and C-linker

    Klaus Bonazza, Roxana E Iacob ... Timothy A Springer
    Both the polypeptide and attached O-glycans N-terminal to the A1 domain in von Willebrand factor lower its affinity for its ligand GPIbα on platelets, its stability, and structural dynamics and decrease population of a high-affinity, intermediate state in unfolding.

    Structural basis for the phase separation of the chromosome passenger complex

    Nikaela W Bryan, Aamir Ali ... Ben E Black
    The utilization of hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry reveals dynamic insights and interactions driving liquid-liquid demixing of the chromosome passenger complex.

    Nucleotide binding to the ATP-cone in anaerobic ribonucleotide reductases allosterically regulates activity by modulating substrate binding

    Ornella Bimai, Ipsita Banerjee ... Derek T Logan
    The first structural and biochemical study of the role of the ATP-cone in anaerobic ribonucleotide reductases shows that dATP allosterically prevents transfer of a glycyl radical to the substrate.

    Super Spy variants implicate flexibility in chaperone action

    Shu Quan, Lili Wang ... James CA Bardwell
    Lab-evolved 'super Spy' chaperones show enhanced flexibility, which allows them to bind to and stabilize proteins more effectively than natural chaperones.

    HDX-MS reveals structural determinants for RORγ hyperactivation by synthetic agonists

    Timothy S Strutzenberg, Ruben D Garcia-Ordonez ... Patrick R Griffin
    Unique methodology was used to generate a large HDX-MS dataset to inform ligand-mediated activation of RORγ, an approach that can be extended to other nuclear receptors with unresolved ligand-dependent activities.

    Tracing a protein’s folding pathway over evolutionary time using ancestral sequence reconstruction and hydrogen exchange

    Shion An Lim, Eric Richard Bolin, Susan Marqusee
    Pulsed-labeling hydrogen exchange on the ribonuclease H family show that the major folding intermediate is conserved over three billion years of evolution, but the path leading to this intermediate varies.
