    Conformational dynamics of the nucleotide binding domains and the power stroke of a heterodimeric ABC transporter

    Smriti Mishra, Brandy Verhalen ... Hassane S Mchaourab
    The conformational cycle of an ABC heterodimeric transporter reveals a divergence in the structural mechanism of ABC exporters.

    Recognition of the small regulatory RNA RydC by the bacterial Hfq protein

    Daniela Dimastrogiovanni, Kathrin S Fröhlich ... Ben F Luisi
    The regulatory RNA RydC binds to Hfq to make an effector complex for the recognition of targeted mRNA in the regulation of genetic information.

    Revealing an outward-facing open conformational state in a CLC Cl/H+ exchange transporter

    Chandra M Khantwal, Sherwin J Abraham ... Merritt Maduke
    The characterization of a previously unidentified “outward-facing open” conformational state provides a new framework for understanding the CLC transport mechanism.

    Human DNA2 possesses a cryptic DNA unwinding activity that functionally integrates with BLM or WRN helicases

    Cosimo Pinto, Kristina Kasaciunaite ... Petr Cejka
    The nuclease of hDNA2 limits its processive DNA unwinding capacity; the helicase function becomes stimulatory when hDNA2 is in complex with BLM or WRN helicase to degrade dsDNA.

    Structural reorganization of the chromatin remodeling enzyme Chd1 upon engagement with nucleosomes

    Ramasubramanian Sundaramoorthy, Amanda L Hughes ... Tom Owen-Hughes
    Structural models of the chromatin remodeling enzyme Chd1 in solution and when bound to chromatin indicate that conformational changes to both the enzyme and the nucleosome occur upon nucleotide dependent engagement.

    Helical jackknives control the gates of the double-pore K+ uptake system KtrAB

    Marina Diskowski, Ahmad Reza Mehdipour ... Inga Hänelt
    The K(+) uptake system KtrAB is controlled by an allosteric mechanism entirely new for membrane channels, which operates the channel gate over a 35 Å distance.

    PAX3-FOXO1 transgenic zebrafish models identify HES3 as a mediator of rhabdomyosarcoma tumorigenesis

    Genevieve C Kendall, Sarah Watson ... James F Amatruda
    The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, HES3, acts downstream of the PAX3-FOXO1 fusion oncogene to impair muscle differentiation and promote tumorigenesis in rhabdomyosarcoma, a childhood muscle cancer.

    Importance of miRNA stability and alternative primary miRNA isoforms in gene regulation during Drosophila development

    Li Zhou, Mandy Yu Theng Lim ... Katsutomo Okamura
    Selective degradation of mature miRNAs shapes temporal miRNA expression patterns and is important for proper regulation of target genes to support normal development of Drosophila embryos.

    Structure of the chromatin remodelling enzyme Chd1 bound to a ubiquitinylated nucleosome

    Ramasubramanian Sundaramoorthy, Amanda L Hughes ... Tom Owen-Hughes
    The unwrapping two turns of DNA on Chd1-bound nucleosomes cause the histone H3 tail and ubiquitin to be re-positioned.

    MicroRNA-122 supports robust innate immunity in hepatocytes by targeting the RTKs/STAT3 signaling pathway

    Hui Xu, Shi-Jun Xu ... Liang-Hu Qu
    The liver-specific miRNA microRNA-122 plays a previously unknown role in hepatocyte intrinsic innate immunity by targeting the RTKs/STAT3 signaling pathway.
