Design of intrinsically disordered region binding proteins | Science
Intrinsically disordered proteins and peptides play key roles in biology, but a lack of defined structures and high variability in sequence and conformational preferences have made targeting such systems challenging. We describe a general approach for ...

Autoinhibition imposed by a large conformational switch of INO80 regulates nucleosome positioning | Science
Increasing the flanking DNA from 40 to 80 base pairs (bp) causes ~100-fold faster nucleosome sliding by INO80. A prevalent hypothesis posits that the Arp8 module within INO80 enables a ruler-like activity. Using cryogenic electron microscopy, we show ...
