    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.

    Determinants of trafficking, conduction, and disease within a K+ channel revealed through multiparametric deep mutational scanning

    Willow Coyote-Maestas, David Nedrud ... Daniel Schmidt
    By measuring the impacts of thousands of mutations on potassium channel trafficking and function, we illuminate the molecular basis of folding, structure–function relationships, and how these are altered in disease.

    CryoEM structures of membrane pore and prepore complex reveal cytolytic mechanism of Pneumolysin

    Katharina van Pee, Alexander Neuhaus ... Özkan Yildiz
    The near-atomic cryoEM pore complex structure of pneumolysin, the main virulence factor of Streptococcus pneumoniae, shows how the individual domains rearrange during the pore formation.

    A new topology of the HK97-like fold revealed in Bordetella bacteriophage by cryoEM at 3.5 Å resolution

    Xing Zhang, Huatao Guo ... Z Hong Zhou
    Cryo electron microscopy and structure-based mutagenesis reveal that the bacteriophage BPP-1 contains two of the three major recognized viral folds, one of which exhibits a new topology.

    Spatial determination and prognostic impact of the fibroblast transcriptome in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

    Wayne Croft, Hayden Pearce ... Paul Moss
    Profiling spatially defined fibroblasts in the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumor microenvironment identifies high levels of podoplanin and hypoxia in tumor-proximal fibroblasts associated with bad prognosis, whilst inflammatory markers define more distal fibroblast regions and associate with better outcomes.

    Cellular diversity in the Drosophila midbrain revealed by single-cell transcriptomics

    Vincent Croset, Christoph D Treiber, Scott Waddell
    Sequencing mRNA from thousands of single cells from the Drosophila brain highlights the extent of cellular diversity and reveals co-expression of specific neuropeptides with particular fast-acting neurotransmitters and monoamines.

    CryoEM and computer simulations reveal a novel kinase conformational switch in bacterial chemotaxis signaling

    C Keith Cassidy, Benjamin A Himes ... Peijun Zhang
    An atomic model of the bacterial chemosensory array obtained through the synthesis of cryo-electron tomography and large-scale molecular-dynamics simulations reveals a new kinase conformation during signaling events.

    Cryo-EM structures reveal specialization at the myosin VI-actin interface and a mechanism of force sensitivity

    Pinar S Gurel, Laura Y Kim ... Gregory M Alushin
    Cryo-EM structures of actomyosin VI in multiple nucleotide states reveal a unique actin-myosin interface and a mechanism of force-sensitivity; furthermore, myosin VI remodels F-actin, suggesting a role for actin structural plasticity during force generation.

    Cryo-EM visualization of the ribosome in termination complex with apo-RF3 and RF1

    Jesper Pallesen, Yaser Hashem ... Joachim Frank
    Cryo-electron microscopy has been used to provide a structural interpretation of the complete action cycle of release factor 3 during translation termination, which includes a coordinated sequence of interactions with a class-I release factor and the ribosome.

    Electron cryo-tomography provides insight into procentriole architecture and assembly mechanism

    Sam Li, Jose-Jesus Fernandez ... David A Agard
    A detailed description of the structure of procentriole MT triplet by cryoET, along with its associated non-tubulin proteins and its assembly intermediates, reveals possible molecular mechanism for the procentriole assembly.
