The ciliary transition zone (TZ) regulates ciliary proteome composition, yet its molecular architecture, protein content, and contribution to motile ciliopathies remain poorly defined. We applied in situ cryo-electron tomography and subtomogram averaging ...

MemBrain v2 enables streamlined analysis of membranes in cryo-electron tomography by providing user-friendly tools for membrane segmentation, membrane protein localization and spatial analysis, suppor...

Cryo-electron tomography uncovers the structure of a conserved hexameric ‘portal complex’ that spans the core wall in vaccinia virus, and shows how it is associated with viral functions such as a...

Preferential orientation at the air-water interface (AWI) remains a persistent challenge in cryo-electron microscopy, often requiring extensive optimization or specialized grid preparation strategies....

Institut Pasteur and the CNRS are launching a joint call for a mid-career group leader position in Medicinal Chemistry and Chemistry for Health. We are looking for an experienced researcher (typically...

The long-living rodent naked mole-rat has a distinct break in its 28S ribosomal RNA. Here, the authors present cryo-EM structures showing this cleavage is stabilized by surrounding ribosomal proteins,...

Tau pathology spreads cell to cell, but the mechanisms of intercellular tau transmission remain unclear. We find that the neuronal gene Arc is critica…

Bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV), a member of the Rhabdoviridae family, is an arthropod-borne pathogen that causes acute febrile disease in cattle. The structural basis of its genome encapsidation ...

Early enthusiasm for the “cellular revolution” in cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) was largely driven by the promise of resolving protein structures…

The extent to which crystal packing constrains protein dynamics is hard to decipher. Now a combination of NMR, crystallography and molecular dynamics simulations show that intermolecular contacts can ...

AP3 generates clathrin-free carriers on endosomes by organizing via ARF1 dimers into elongated membrane-deforming arrays.
