To protect mammals against retroviral infections, TRIM5 restriction factors recognize viral capsids by forming complementary hexagonal nets that can adapt to the patterns of capsid protein subunits on the viral capsid surface.
Studying the impact of natural variation on a key immune gene highlights how focusing on a single wild-type sequence overlooks that rare variants cause the most disease.
Cell biology and animal model analysis in mice shows that molecules involved in glycolytic metabolism could potentially serve as therapeutic targets for the treatment of neurological diseases.
PITAR interaction with TRIM28 mRNA, which encodes a p53 targeting E3 ubiquitin ligase, keeps p53 levels low for cancer cells to divide and attenuates the DNA damage response by p53.
