    A tool to pulse-label yeast nuclear pore complexes in imaging and biochemical experiments

    Annemiek C Veldsink, Jonas S Fischer ... Liesbeth M Veenhoff
    A non-perturbative nanobody-based strategy was developed for pulse-labeling yeast nuclear pore complexes to selectively capture Nup84-containing complexes for imaging and biochemical analysis.

    ATP-driven conformational dynamics reveal hidden intermediates in a heterodimeric ABC transporter

    Matija Pečak, Christoph Nocker, Robert Tampé
    Hidden outward-facing intermediates and long-lived ATP-bound states reveal how ATP binding drives conformational dynamics in the heterodimeric ABC transporter TmrAB.

    Repurposed small molecule toxin inhibitors neutralise a diversity of venoms from the Neotropical viperid snake genus Bothrops

    Rachel H Clare, Adam Westhorpe ... Nicholas R Casewell
    Despite the variation in venom across the Bothrops snake genus, repurposed drugs demonstrated pan-species neutralisation in enzymatic, coagulation, and haemorrhage assays, highlighting their value as novel therapies for Neotropical snakebites.
