Using cryo-EM, we captured five structural intermediates of the Nudaurelia capensis omega virus (NωV) as it matures from procapsid to infectious virion. It's incredibly exciting to see the complete maturation pathway of a eukaryotic virus described at this level of detail.

It took a while but it’s finally published! The GAP activity of SEAC (GATOR) is a metabolic switch that allows cells to quickly respond to changes in amino acid levels, both for inhibition and reactivation.

How many of the PDB models that were solved using experimental phasing could have been solved by molecular replacement using models obtained from AlphaFold? #MolecularReplacement #AlphaFold2 #ComputationalMethods t.co/s6EahtcYms
