Identification of Cl−-induced folding advances the field’s understanding of prestin’s unique voltage-sensing mechanism and its involvement in mammalian hearing sensation.
Structure of the Mrp antiporter, an ancestor of respiratory complex I, suggests a mechanism of coupling between cation and proton translocation, applicable to a large family of related membrane proteins.
Deleting the first helix of the α-catenin actin-binding domain results in a slip bond interaction between the cadherin–catenin complex and F-actin, such that the binding interaction is stable at low force.
Cryo-EM structures of actomyosin VI in multiple nucleotide states reveal a unique actin-myosin interface and a mechanism of force-sensitivity; furthermore, myosin VI remodels F-actin, suggesting a role for actin structural plasticity during force generation.

Computational modeling and single molecule imaging data support frequent disassembly and annealing of newly assembled actin, a process that can underlie structural changes of lamellipodial actin networks.
High-throughput and ultra-stable magnetic tweezers reveal that Remdesivir induces a long-lived backtrack pause upon incorporation by the coronavirus polymerase, and SARS-CoV-2 is able to evade interferon-induced antiviral ddhCTP.
