Insights into type IX secretion from PorKN cogwheel structure bound to PorG and attachment complexes - Nature Communications
Type IX secretion system (T9SS) is required for protein export in the Bacteroidota. Here, the authors obtain structure of T9SS PorKN ring which resembles a cogwheel that may have a rotational movement...

"Productivity reform starts with public science" by Nathan Garland @n8sci.bsky.social has some worthy suggestions for improving productivity.
In news we all know – but the Government seems to like ignoring – it'll help to fund more basic science research!

Excited to share that our work on a family of pore-forming proteins is now live in Science Advances! We show structural snapshots across the entire pore-forming pathway for a cholesterol-dependent cytolysin-like (CDCL) bicomponent system.

Just because it's a homo-oligomer, don't assume it's symmetric! @benjabsnt.bsky.social & collaborators used cryo-EM to study the transthyretin (TTR) tetramer (55 kDa), shedding light on its misfolding pathways linked to amyloid disease. Now in peer-reviewed form: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
