    The acidic domain of the endothelial membrane protein GPIHBP1 stabilizes lipoprotein lipase activity by preventing unfolding of its catalytic domain

    Simon Mysling, Kristian Kølby Kristensen ... Michael Ploug
    Intravascular triglyceride hydrolysis by lipoprotein lipase is crucial for delivering lipid nutrients to vital tissues, such as the heart, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue.

    aCPSF1 cooperates with terminator U-tract to dictate archaeal transcription termination efficacy

    Jie Li, Lei Yue ... Xiuzhu Dong
    Term-seq, genetic and biochemical experiments reveal that the trans-action factor aCPSF1 and the terminator U-tract cis-element work in a noteworthy two-in-one termination mode in archaea, and may represent an archetypal mode of the eukaryotic RNA polymerase II termination machinery.

    Activin A forms a non-signaling complex with ACVR1 and type II Activin/BMP receptors via its finger 2 tip loop

    Senem Aykul, Richard A Corpina ... Vincent Idone
    The non-signaling complex formed by Activin A and ACVR1 is operant in vivo and is required to temper the degree of heterotopic ossification in the genetic disorder fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva.

    Selective androgen receptor degrader (SARD) to overcome antiandrogen resistance in castration-resistant prostate cancer

    Meng Wu, Rongyu Zhang ... Jinming Zhou
    The rational drug design combining the bioassay identified a novel selective androgen receptor (AR) degrader for both AR and AR-VRs and illustrated the synergistic importance of AR antagonism and degradation in advanced prostate cancer treatment.

    GPC1 specific CAR-T cells eradicate established solid tumor without adverse effects and synergize with anti-PD-1 Ab

    Daiki Kato, Tomonori Yaguchi ... Yutaka Kawakami
    The safety and strong antitumor effects of GPC1-specific CAR-T cells against GPC1-expressing solid tumors were demonstrated by using both syngeneic and xenogeneic mouse models.

    Effects of common mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 Spike RBD and its ligand, the human ACE2 receptor on binding affinity and kinetics

    Michael I Barton, Stuart A MacGowan ... P Anton van der Merwe
    Common variants of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein and its ligand, the human ACE2 receptor, increase the binding affinity, suggesting that they could increase viral transmissibility.

    Dissection of the interaction between the intrinsically disordered YAP protein and the transcription factor TEAD

    Yannick Mesrouze, Fedir Bokhovchuk ... Patrick Chène
    A structure-function analysis of the YAP:TEAD interaction permits a thermodynamic mapping of this interface.

    Deconstruction of the beaten Path-Sidestep interaction network provides insights into neuromuscular system development

    Hanqing Li, Ash Watson ... Kai Zinn
    A network, composed of 22 relatives of the Beaten Path and Sidestep immunoglobulin superfamily cell surface proteins, also includes several neuronal Beaten Path subfamily receptors which interact selectively with Sidestep subfamily proteins expressed on peripheral tissues.

    Crystal structure of PfRh5, an essential P. falciparum ligand for invasion of human erythrocytes

    Lin Chen, Yibin Xu ... Alan F Cowman
    The crystal structure of a PfRh family protein from a malaria parasite has been solved and shows that PfRh5-which the parasite uses to invade human red blood cells-has a novel protein fold.
