Crystal structures of Escherichia coli glucokinase and insights into phosphate binding
This work, for the first time, presents the structure of apo Escherichia coli glucokinase (ecGLK) bound with sulfate, a phosphate mimic, and the structure of ecGLK in complex with both glucose and phosphate, implying a role of phosphate in regulating the glucokinase activity.



Structural insights into full-length human fascin1: a target for cancer treatment
This study presents the first fully resolved crystal structure of human fascin1, revealing its conformational plasticity and key interdomain interactions critical for actin bundling and cancer metastasis. These findings provide a structural foundation for the development of allosteric inhibitors and pave the way for time-resolved crystallographic studies to explore fascin1 dynamics in metastasis and drug targeting.

Crystal structure of the sucrose phosphorylase from Alteromonas mediterranea shows a loop transition in the active site
Sucrose phosphorylases catalyse a bi-bi reaction that interconverts sucrose and phosphate into glucose α-1-phosphate and fructose. Here, we present the first crystal structure of a sucrose phosphorylase from a marine organism.
