The structures of full-length Las1-Grc3 complexes provide crucial insights into the activation mechanism of HEPN nuclease and the pathway of pre-rRNA processing in ribosome biosynthesis.
Structure and simulations reveal SARS-CoV-2 NSP10 is more resistant to genetic variations than other SARS-CoV-2 NSPs and that the presence of mutations conserves structural and dynamic changes in NSP10.

Biochemical, biophysical, and structural approach to determine the molecular basis of the calcium-sensitive regulation of the Gα chaperone and guanine exchange factor Ric-8A by the neuronal calcium sensor NCS-1.
Self-assembly of bacterial ice nucleation proteins is required for efficient activity and is mediated by electrostatic interactions, creating long and thin fibres.
