    Multiscale cardiac imaging spanning the whole heart and its internal cellular architecture in a small animal model

    Graham Rykiel, Claudia S López ... Sandra Rugonyi
    Correlative imaging of the heart at multiple spatial scales has the potential to revolutionize the way we understand deficiencies in congenital heart disease.

    Cryo-EM structure of the KvAP channel reveals a non-domain-swapped voltage sensor topology

    Xiao Tao, Roderick MacKinnon
    The structure of KvAP addresses a mechanism of voltage-dependent gating that has been debated for 16 years.

    Three-dimensional synaptic organization of the human hippocampal CA1 field

    Marta Montero-Crespo, Marta Dominguez-Alvaro ... Lidia Blazquez-Llorca
    Volume electron microscopy reveals the synaptic organization of the neuropil of the human hippocampal CA1 field.

    Integrative modeling reveals the molecular architecture of the intraflagellar transport A (IFT-A) complex

    Caitlyn L McCafferty, Ophelia Papoulas ... Edward M Marcotte
    The 3D structure of the six-subunit complex and its polymeric assembly gives insights into cargo transport in cilia and how specific mutations in these genes lead to ciliopathy birth defects.

    Routine single particle CryoEM sample and grid characterization by tomography

    Alex J Noble, Venkata P Dandey ... Bridget Carragher
    Fiducial-less tomography on single particle cryoEM samples reveals that most particles are adsorbed to the air-water interface and allows for researchers to diagnose and solve sample, grid, ice thickness, collection, and processing issues.

    Ctf4 organizes sister replisomes and Pol α into a replication factory

    Zuanning Yuan, Roxana Georgescu ... Huilin Li
    Eukaryotic replisomes are strongly connected together to replicate both sister DNAs produced from a bidirectional origin.

    Horizontal transfer of whole mitochondria restores tumorigenic potential in mitochondrial DNA-deficient cancer cells

    Lan-Feng Dong, Jaromira Kovarova ... Jiri Neuzil
    A genetic approach documents that mitochondrial DNA moves from donor cells to recipient mtDNA-depleted cells in whole mitochondria and that this restores mitochondrial respiration and the capacity of the cells to form tumours.

    Systematic morphological and morphometric analysis of identified olfactory receptor neurons in Drosophila melanogaster

    Cesar Nava Gonzales, Quintyn McKaughan ... Chih-Ying Su
    A morphological characterization of Drosophila olfactory receptor neurons—conducted systematically at nanoscale resolution—yields an extensive morphometric dataset, identifies novel features of olfactory sensilla, and raises intriguing questions for how the size and shape of sensory neurons influence their function.

    Transmembrane protein CD69 acts as an S1PR1 agonist

    Hongwen Chen, Yu Qin ... Xiaochun Li
    Cryo-EM in combination with biochemistry, flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy reveals the activation of S1PR1 by CD69, a type II membrane protein, in cis to induce receptor internalization and thereby disrupt cellular responsiveness to S1P gradients.
