    Large-scale filament formation inhibits the activity of CTP synthetase

    Rachael M Barry, Anne-Florence Bitbol ... Zemer Gitai
    The accumulation of its product, cytidine triphosphate, encourages the enzyme CTP synthetase (CtpS) to form large-scale polymers and inhibits the enzyme's activity.

    Structure and conformational states of the bovine mitochondrial ATP synthase by cryo-EM

    Anna Zhou, Alexis Rohou ... John L Rubinstein
    Structural analysis of the ATP synthase – in combination with evolutionary covariance analysis – reveals the fold of the a subunit and shows that the enzyme can adopt several different conformations, which support the Brownian ratchet model for generating rotation.

    Cryo-EM structures of the autoinhibited E. coli ATP synthase in three rotational states

    Meghna Sobti, Callum Smits ... Alastair G Stewart
    A molecular model that provides a framework for interpreting the wealth of functional information obtained on the E. coli F-ATP synthase has been generated using cryo-electron microscopy.

    Cryo-EM reveals distinct conformations of E. coli ATP synthase on exposure to ATP

    Meghna Sobti, Robert Ishmukhametov ... Alastair G Stewart
    Cryo-EM studies reveal that incubation with ATP produces conformational intermediates of E. coli ATP synthase, in which the ε subunit is no longer in its autoinhibitory conformation.

    Structural basis of proton translocation and force generation in mitochondrial ATP synthase

    Niklas Klusch, Bonnie J Murphy ... Werner Kühlbrandt
    Cryo-EM reveals atomic details of two membrane half-channels for translocation of protons that drive rotary catalysis in ATP synthase.

    Destabilizers of the thymidylate synthase homodimer accelerate its proteasomal degradation and inhibit cancer growth

    Luca Costantino, Stefania Ferrari ... Maria Paola Costi
    The dimer destabilizers cause a dimer-to-monomer equilibrium shift favoring the human thymidylate synthase monomer more degradable by the proteasome, thus breaking the long-standing link between inhibition and enhanced expression of the protein to fight cancer drug resistance.

    Bovine F1Fo ATP synthase monomers bend the lipid bilayer in 2D membrane crystals

    Chimari Jiko, Karen M Davies ... Christoph Gerle
    The transmembrane shape of the F1Fo ATP synthase monomer provides the molecular basis of high curvature at the ridges of mammalian mitochondrial cristae.

    pH-dependent 11° F1FO ATP synthase sub-steps reveal insight into the FO torque generating mechanism

    Seiga Yanagisawa, Wayne D Frasch
    Single-molecule F1FO studies show mutation-dependent pKa changes of both FO half-channels, and proton translocation-dependent 11° ATP synthase-direction sub-steps, which support a Grotthuss proton transfer-dependent two-step FO torque generating mechanism.

    Dynamic allostery in substrate binding by human thymidylate synthase

    Jeffrey P Bonin, Paul J Sapienza, Andrew L Lee
    The mechanism of substrate binding cooperativity in human thymidylate synthase does not derive from millisecond dynamic interconversion between active and inactive conformations in solution, but instead results primarily from differential changes in faster side-chain motions (conformational entropy), facilitated by a disordered N-terminus.
