Abstract: Protein filaments are ubiquitous in nature and have diverse biological functions. Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) enables the determination of atomic structures, even from native samples, and is capable of identifying previously unknown filament species through high-resolution… read more here.

Abstract: In many cases protein assemblies are stabilized by covalent bonds, one example of which is the formation of intra- or intermolecular ε-(γ-glutamyl)lysil cross-links catalyzed by transglutaminases (TGases). Because of the potential for unwanted cross-linking reactions,… read more here.
