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

Atomic structure of Hsp90-Cdc37-Cdk4 reveals that Hsp90 traps and stabilizes an unfolded kinase

TL;DR: A 3.9 angstrom cryo–electron microscopy structure of the Hsp90-Cdc37-Cdk4 kinase complex is determined and a unifying conceptual and mechanistic models of chaperone-kinase interactions are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Challenges in protein-folding simulations

TL;DR: Recent progress in the simulation of three common model systems for protein folding is reviewed, and how recent advances in technology and theory are allowing protein folding simulations to address their current shortcomings is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single molecule FRET reveals pore size and opening mechanism of a mechano-sensitive ion channel

TL;DR: Measurements of the distance changes on liposome-reconstituted MscL transmembrane α-helices, using a ‘virtual sorting’ single-molecule fluorescence energy transfer confirm that the channel opens via the helix-tilt model and the open pore reaches 2.8 nm in diameter.
