Comparative host-coronavirus protein interaction networks reveal pan-viral disease mechanisms.

David E. Gordon, +203 more
- 04 Dec 2020 - 
TL;DR: The authors identified shared biology and host-directed drug targets to prioritize therapeutics with potential for rapid deployment against current and future coronavirus outbreaks, and found that individuals with genotypes corresponding to higher soluble IL17RA levels in plasma are at decreased risk of COVID-19 hospitalization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Affinity Maturation of a Potent Family of HIV Antibodies Is Primarily Focused on Accommodating or Avoiding Glycans

TL;DR: Structures of inferred antibody intermediates were generated by X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy to elucidate the molecular events that occurred during evolution of the PGT121 family of antibodies and revealed that affinity maturation was primarily focused on avoiding, accommodating, or binding the N137 glycan.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of the mitochondrial inner membrane AAA+ protease YME1 gives insight into substrate processing

TL;DR: By precisely visualizing how the nucleotide state of YME1 subunits allosterically controls their interaction with a translocating protein substrate, this work can understand how cycles of nucleotide hydrolysis can drive stepwise translocation of protein substrates for degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The molecular principles governing the activity and functional diversity of AAA+ proteins

TL;DR: How substrate-bound structures of AAA+ proteins have expanded the understanding of ATP-driven protein remodelling is reviewed, leading to a better understanding of the mechanisms of engagement and processing of their diverse substrates.
