Journal ArticleDOI

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

A Fast and Effective Microfluidic Spraying-Plunging Method for High-Resolution Single-Particle Cryo-EM.

TL;DR: A spraying-plunging method for preparing cryoelectron microscopy grids with vitreous ice of controllable, highly consistent thickness using a microfluidic device is described and it is demonstrated that the structure can be solved to high resolution with this method of sample preparation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Late steps in bacterial translation initiation visualized using time-resolved cryo-EM.

TL;DR: The power of time-resolved cryogenic electron microscopy is demonstrated to determine how a time-ordered series of conformational changes contribute to the mechanism and regulation of one of the most fundamental processes in biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural dynamics of ribosome subunit association studied by mixing-spraying time-resolved cryogenic electron microscopy.

TL;DR: This work used a recently developed mixing-spraying, time-resolved, cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) method to study ribosomal subunit association in the sub-second time range and identified three distinct ribosome conformations in the associated ribosomes.
