    AKAP6 orchestrates the nuclear envelope microtubule-organizing center by linking golgi and nucleus via AKAP9

    Silvia Vergarajauregui, Robert Becker ... Felix B Engel
    AKAP6 is a site-specific adaptor required and sufficient to anchor centrosomal proteins and golgi to the nuclear envelope and establishes a non-centrosomal microtubule organization center (ncMTOC).

    Lipoprotein DolP supports proper folding of BamA in the bacterial outer membrane promoting fitness upon envelope stress

    David Ranava, Yiying Yang ... Raffaele Ieva
    The envelope stress factor DolP associates with the outer membrane protein assembly machinery and supports proper folding and functioning of BamA contributing to preserve envelope integrity.

    The HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 is captured and displayed for B cell recognition by SIGN-R1+ lymph node macrophages

    Chung Park, James Arthos ... John H Kehrl
    Lymph node gp120 specific B cells extract locally injected HIV-1 gp120 from SIGN-R1 positive macrophages that line the subcapsular sinus overlying the lymph node interfollicular channels.

    Indirect sexual selection drives rapid sperm protein evolution in abalone

    Damien Beau Wilburn, Lisa M Tuttle ... Willie J Swanson
    An NMR-based structural study of sperm proteins reveals a novel protein packaging/dispersion system embedded in a coevolutionary arms race.

    An ultralong CDRH2 in HCV neutralizing antibody demonstrates structural plasticity of antibodies against E2 glycoprotein

    Andrew I Flyak, Stormy E Ruiz ... Pamela J Bjorkman
    The crystal structure of neutralizing antibody AR3X in complex with HCV E2 glycoprotein reveals unusual features of antibody recognition in which a conserved epitope is recognized by distinct antibody poses.

    Profiling the Escherichia coli membrane protein interactome captured in Peptidisc libraries

    Michael Luke Carlson, R Greg Stacey ... Franck Duong Van Hoa
    Trapping of the cell envelope proteome into water-soluble peptidisc library allows high-throughput definition of the membrane protein interactome.

    Class-A penicillin binding proteins do not contribute to cell shape but repair cell-wall defects

    Antoine Vigouroux, Baptiste Cordier ... Sven van Teeffelen
    Class-A penicillin-binding proteins are dispensable for rod-like cell-shape but essential for mechanical integrity by sensing and repairing cell-wall defects locally, as investigated in the model system Escherichia coli.

    Physical basis of the cell size scaling laws

    Romain Rollin, Jean-François Joanny, Pierre Sens
    A theoretical model explains how protein density and nuclear to cell volume ratio are maintained during cell growth, discusses conditions under which this breaks down, and highlights the importance of metabolites, mainly amino acids such as glutamate, in this homeostasis.

    A pH-dependent cluster of charges in a conserved cryptic pocket on flaviviral envelopes

    Lorena Zuzic, Jan K Marzinek ... Peter J Bond
    Benzene mapping simulations of envelope protein rafts from six different flaviviruses reveal a conserved cryptic site whose cluster of ionisable residues is likely responsible for orchestrating pH-dependent conformational changes during fusion, thereby representing an attractive target for antiviral development.

    Coordination of peptidoglycan synthesis and outer membrane constriction during Escherichia coli cell division

    Andrew N Gray, Alexander JF Egan ... Waldemar Vollmer
    The protein CpoB regulates PBP1B activity in response to the Tol energy state, which facilitates feedback and synchronicity between envelope constriction processes during Gram-negative bacterial cell division.
