    Structural and thermodynamic analyses of the β-to-α transformation in RfaH reveal principles of fold-switching proteins

    Philipp K Zuber, Tina Daviter ... Stefan H Knauer
    The β-barrel conformation of the KOW domain of the metamorphic protein RfaH is in equilibrium with a low-populated, predominately unstructured state exhibiting helical elements, suggesting that transiently structured elements in unfolded conformations might be a general scheme in fold-switching proteins.

    C-mannosylation supports folding and enhances stability of thrombospondin repeats

    Aleksandra Shcherbakova, Matthias Preller ... Hans Bakker
    C-mannosylation supports native folding of thrombospondin type 1 repeats in the endoplasmic reticulum and stabilizes the folded proteins by modulating the dynamics of the tryptophan-arginine ladder.

    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.

    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.

    Expansion microscopy of C. elegans

    Chih-Chieh (Jay) Yu, Nicholas C Barry ... Edward S Boyden
    Fixed, intact animals of C. elegans can be physically expanded with high isotropy, to enable super-resolved imaging of general proteins and nucleic acids throughout the organism, on conventional microscopes.

    Small molecule-mediated refolding and activation of myosin motor function

    Michael B Radke, Manuel H Taft ... Dietmar J Manstein
    The small molecule EMD 57033 is one of a new class of pharmacological chaperones that stabilize, enhance the activity of, and correct stress-induced misfolding of myosin proteins.

    Early steps of protein disaggregation by Hsp70 chaperone and class B J-domain proteins are shaped by Hsp110

    Wiktoria Sztangierska, Hubert Wyszkowski ... Agnieszka Kłosowska
    Recovery of proteins from aggregates by Hsp70 is boosted by the Hsp110 co-chaperone, which promotes abundant Hsp70 recruitment to aggregates and supports initial aggregate remodelling into small assemblies.
