Molecular replacement with MOLREP

TLDR
MOLREP is an automated program for molecular replacement that utilizes a number of original approaches to rotational and translational search and data preparation that includes weighting of the X-ray data and search models, multi-copy search, fitting the model into electron density, structural superposition of two models and rigid-body refinement.
Abstract
MOLREP is an automated program for molecular replacement that utilizes a number of original approaches to rotational and translational search and data preparation. Since the first publication describing the program, MOLREP has acquired a variety of features that include weighting of the X-ray data and search models, multi-copy search, fitting the model into electron density, structural superposition of two models and rigid-body refinement. The program can run in a fully automatic mode using optimized parameters calculated from the input data.

Latent TGF-β structure and activation

TL;DR: Crystals of dimeric porcine proTGF-β1 reveal a ring-shaped complex, a novel fold for the pro domain, and show how the prodomain shields the growth factor from recognition by receptors and alters its conformation.

Phosphorylation of p62 activates the Keap1-Nrf2 pathway during selective autophagy.

TL;DR: It is shown that phosphorylation of the autophagy-adaptor protein p62 markedly increases p62's binding affinity for Keap1, an adaptor of the Cul3-ubiquitin E3 ligase complex responsible for degrading Nrf2, and that inhibitors of the interaction between phosphorylated p62 and Keap 1 have potential as therapeutic agents against human HCC.
