    Blue-shifted ancyromonad channelrhodopsins for multiplex optogenetics

    Elena G Govorunova, Oleg A Sineshchekov ... John L Spudich
    Ancyromonad channelrhodopsins advance understanding of ionic selectivity and wavelength regulation in light-gated ion channels, and expand the toolkit for multiplexing with red-shifted fluorescent sensors.

    Coupled equilibria of dimerization and lipid binding modulate SARS Cov 2 Orf9b interactions and interferon response

    CJ San Felipe, Jyoti Batra ... James S Fraser
    Lipid binding stabilizes the SARS-CoV-2 Orf9b homodimer, slowing its conversion to the Tom70-binding monomeric form and modulating interferon suppression.

    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.

    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.
