Journal ArticleDOI

Recognition of a functional peroxisome type 1 target by the dynamic import receptor pex5p.

TL;DR: The structure of the receptor/cargo complex demonstrates that the primary receptor-binding site of the cargo is structurally and topologically autonomous, enabling the cargo to retain its native structure and function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antagonistic Functions of MBP and CNP Establish Cytosolic Channels in CNS Myelin

TL;DR: This study identified 2,′3′-cyclic nucleotide 3′-phosphodiesterase (CNP), an oligodendrocyte-specific protein previously implicated in the maintenance of axonal integrity, as an essential factor in generating and maintaining cytoplasm within the myelin compartment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular basis of the death-associated protein kinase-calcium/calmodulin regulator complex.

TL;DR: The crystal structure of a prototypical CaMK, death-associated protein kinase (DAPK), in a complex with CaM is described to determine how CaM binding regulates DAPK activity and likely provides a generally applicable model for regulation of CaMK activity.
