    Lateral interactions between protofilaments of the bacterial tubulin homolog FtsZ are essential for cell division

    Fenghui Guan, Jiayu Yu ... Sheng Ye
    Structural and functional approaches unambiguously revealed physiologically relevant lateral interactions between FtsZ protofilaments.

    Cortical adaptation to sound reverberation

    Aleksandar Z Ivanov, Andrew J King ... Nicol S Harper
    The auditory system adapts to the changing acoustics of reverberant environments by temporally shifting the inhibitory tuning of cortical neurons to reduce the effects of reverberation.

    Architecture of the ring formed by the tubulin homologue FtsZ in bacterial cell division

    Piotr Szwedziak, Qing Wang ... Jan Löwe
    The architecture of the bacterial cytokinetic ring in cells and in artificial liposome reconstitutions has been described using electron microscopy, leading to a mechanism of constriction.

    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.

    A conserved cell division protein directly regulates FtsZ dynamics in filamentous and unicellular actinobacteria

    Félix Ramos-León, Matthew J Bush ... Susan Schlimpert
    Identification of a novel regulator that directly influences the assembly and function of the cell division machinery in industrially and medically important bacteria.

    Across-species differences in pitch perception are consistent with differences in cochlear filtering

    Kerry MM Walker, Ray Gonzalez ... Andrew J King
    Humans and other animals have different strategies for extracting the pitch of sounds, potentially driven by the species-specific frequency selectivity of the ear.

    TANGO1 builds a machine for collagen export by recruiting and spatially organizing COPII, tethers and membranes

    Ishier Raote, Maria Ortega-Bellido ... Vivek Malhotra
    TANGO1 creates a sub-compartment at the endoplasmic reticulum, to segregate and export fully assembled bulky cargoes.

    Complexity of frequency receptive fields predicts tonotopic variability across species

    Quentin Gaucher, Mariangela Panniello ... Kerry MM Walker
    The A1 of ferrets and mice show similar tonotopic organizations, with neurons preferring a single frequency being more precisely organized into a tonotopic map than multipeaked neurons.

    Curvature-induced expulsion of actomyosin bundles during cytokinetic ring contraction

    Junqi Huang, Ting Gang Chew ... Mohan K Balasubramanian
    Cytokinetic actomyosin ring disassembly occurs through a novel mechanism in which the increased ring curvature, generated through contraction, itself promotes the disassembly process.
