Nuclear pore complex mimics based on solid-state nanopores show significant selectivity below a diameter of 55 nm, which decreases gradually for larger pore diameters.

First 3D-structure and first observation of organized protofilaments of MreB from a Gram-positive bacterium, suggesting a model where ATP drives the formation of dynamic pairs of MreB protofilaments on a lipid surface.

Nanoscaleimaging reveals that animal septins form dense filamentous networks on biomimeticlipid membranes, explaining how septins may regulate cell surface rigidity.

A homopolymer-sphere model is shown to accurately reproduce the interactions that underpin selective gating of macromolecular transport into and out of the cell nucleus.
