    Opening and closing of a cryptic pocket in VP35 toggles it between two different RNA-binding modes

    Upasana L Mallimadugula, Matthew A Cruz ... Gregory R Bowman
    The cryptic pocket is critical for one of the VP35 protein's functions and therefore is likely under selective pressure.

    Development of D-box peptides to inhibit the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome

    Rohan Eapen, Cynthia Okoye ... Laura S Itzhaki
    Peptide inhibitors of E3 ubiquitin ligase anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome, engineered for enhanced affinity by incorporating unnatural amino acids, are able to block substrate ubiquitination and drive degradation of a fused target.

    Coral anthozoan-specific opsins employ a novel chloride counterion for spectral tuning

    Yusuke Sakai, Saumik Sen ... Akihisa Terakita
    Environmental chloride ions act as essential counterions that enable coral opsins to respond to visible light, and the polar residue Glu292 plays a critical role in chloride binding.
