Journal ArticleDOI

Steven Stevenson,Gregory W. Rice,T. E. Glass,Kim Harich,Frank Cromer,M. R. Jordan,J. Craft,E. Hadju,R. Bible,Marilyn M. Olmstead,Kalyani Maitra,Andrew J. Fisher,Alan L. Balch,Harry C. Dorn +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new family of stable endohedral fullerenes encapsulating trimetallic nitride clusters, ErxSc3-xN@C80 (x = 0-3), was synthesized.
Journal ArticleDOI
X-ray structures of the myosin motor domain of Dictyostelium discoideum complexed with MgADP.BeFx and MgADP.AlF4-.
Andrew J. Fisher,Clyde A. Smith,James B. Thoden,Robert Smith,Kazuo Sutoh,Hazel M. Holden,Ivan Rayment +6 more
TL;DR: The three-dimensional structures of the truncated myosin head from Dictyostelium discoideumMyosin II complexed with beryllium and aluminum fluoride and magnesium ADP are reported at 2.0 and 2.6 A resolution, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ordered duplex RNA controls capsid architecture in an icosahedral animal virus.
TL;DR: The X-ray structure of Flock House virus is reported, which reveals an ordered RNA duplex of 20 nucleotides and a protein segment that control the subunit interactions in this animal virus, indicating that RNA associated with the cleaved polypeptide may be important in the infection process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structures of human ADAR2 bound to dsRNA reveal base-flipping mechanism and basis for site selectivity.
Melissa M. Matthews,Justin M. Thomas,Yuxuan Zheng,Kiet Tran,Kelly J. Phelps,Anna I Scott,Jocelyn Havel,Andrew J. Fisher,Peter A. Beal +8 more
TL;DR: These structures, together with structure-guided mutagenesis and RNA-modification experiments, explain the basis of the ADAR deaminase domain's dsRNA specificity, its base-flipping mechanism, and its nearest-neighbor preferences, and provide a structural framework for understanding the effects of ADAR mutations associated with human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional implications of quasi-equivalence in a T=3 icosahedral animal virus established by cryo-electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography
R. Holland Cheng,Vijay S. Reddy,Norman H. Olson,Andrew J. Fisher,Timothy S. Baker,John E. Johnson +5 more
TL;DR: A model for nodavirus infection is proposed that is conceptually similar to that proposed for poliovirus but differs from it in detail, including the constraints of a single protein type in the capsid.
