Analysis of recent X-ray crystallography data on eukaryotic glycosyltransferases in complex with acceptor and donor substrates reveals structural features that govern substrate specificity and glycosylation site selection.
Hetz et al. discuss recent advances in the identification and optimization of small molecules targeting the unfolded protein response and the application of these small molecules in cancers, neurodegeneration and metabolic diseases.
This Review highlights recent structure–function insights that inform diverse pharmacologic strategies for direct targeting of BAX to alternatively reactivate or inhibit apoptosis in diseases of pathologic cell survival or premature cellular demise.
A collection of genetically encoded tools, each with their own capabilities, limitations and performance characteristics, are available for monitoring and manipulating neuronal activity that could allow visualizing the brain at single-cell resolution.
