    Role of BRCA2 DNA-binding and C-terminal domain in its mobility and conformation in DNA repair

    Maarten W Paul, Arshdeep Sidhu ... Claire Wyman
    Highly conserved C-terminal domains of the tumor suppressor BRCA2 are not essential for accumulation at damaged DNA but affect conformation and cell survival, implying roles beyond delivering strand-exchange protein RAD51.

    Transcription factor clusters regulate genes in eukaryotic cells

    Adam JM Wollman, Sviatlana Shashkova ... Mark C Leake
    Transcription factors form clusters independently of the presence of DNA, which regulate target genes as opposed to individual monomers, addressing a longstanding question of how transcription factors can find gene targets so quickly.

    Tracking multiple conformations occurring on angstrom-and-millisecond scales in single amino-acid-transporter molecules

    Yufeng Zhou, John H Lewis, Zhe Lu
    The present fluorescence polarization microscopy method enables the determination of the spatial orientations and lifetimes of a transporter protein in individual conformational states required for understanding the complex conformational mechanism underlying its function, applicable to investigation of other membrane proteins.
