Accepted 19 June 2025

Crystal structures of Escherichia coli glucokinase and insights into phosphate binding

This work 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 for phosphate in regulating the glucokinase activity.

Accepted 11 June 2025

Nucleotide-bound crystal structures of the SARS-CoV-2 helicase NSP13

Nucleotide-bound crystal structures of SARS-CoV-2 NSP13 capture a state immediately following ATP hydrolysis and reveal how crystal packing can affect structure-based drug design targeting NSP13.

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.
