Structure of human glycosylphosphatidylinositol transamidase

Hongwei Zhang et al.

Summary: The GPI transamidase (GPIT) complex plays an important role in attaching GPI to proteins, facilitating the maturation of GPI-anchored proteins. The complex is composed of five subunits, with PIGK acting as the catalytic component and transmembrane helices serving as the GPI substrate-binding site. The ubiquitin E3 ligase RNF121 is also present, potentially functioning as a quality control factor for the GPIT complex.

Bacterial gasdermins reveal an ancient mechanism of cell death

Alex G. Johnson et al.

Summary: Gasdermin proteins play important roles in immune regulation and induction of cell death in human cells by forming membrane pores. Similar proteins encoded by bacteria have been found to defend against phages and execute cell death.

Structure and engineering of the type III-E CRISPR-Cas7-11 effector complex

Kazuki Kato et al.

Summary: This study reports a new type III-E CRISPR-Cas effector, Cas7-11, with dual RNase activities for precursor CRISPR RNA (pre-crRNA) processing and crRNA-guided target RNA cleavage, providing a new platform for RNA targeting in bacteria and mammals. The cryoelectron microscopy structure of Cas7-11 in complex with a crRNA and its target RNA was determined at a resolution of 2.5 angstroms. Rational engineering of a compact Cas7-11 variant, Cas7-11S, enabled in vivo applications for transcript knockdown in human cells.

Craspase is a CRISPR RNA-guided, RNA-activated protease

Chunyi Hu et al.

Summary: A study found that the CRISPR-Cas type III-E RNA-targeting effector complex gRAMP/Cas7-11 is associated with a caspase-like protein to form Craspase. Cryo-electron microscopy snapshots were used to explain the mechanisms of target RNA cleavage and protease activation by Craspase. The protease activity can be switched off by target RNA cleavage and it has self-regulatory capacity.

Highly accurate protein structure prediction with AlphaFold

John Jumper et al.

Summary: Proteins are essential for life, and accurate prediction of their structures is a crucial research problem. Current experimental methods are time-consuming, highlighting the need for accurate computational approaches to address the gap in structural coverage. Despite recent progress, existing methods fall short of atomic accuracy in protein structure prediction.

Programmable RNA targeting with the single-protein CRISPR effector Cas7-11

Ahsen Ozcan et al.

Summary: The study revealed that Cas7-11 from class 1 CRISPR-Cas systems is a single-protein effector with RNA interference capability. It can process pre-CRISPR RNA into mature crRNA with high specificity, and has potential applications in RNA knockdown and editing in mammalian cells. The findings provide a basis for developing new programmable RNA-targeting tools that are free of collateral activity and cell toxicity.
