Structural flexibility dominates over binding strength for supramolecular crystallinity

V. Caroprese, C. Tekin, V. Cencen, M. Mosayebi, T. Liverpool, D. Woolfson, G. E. Fantner, M. M. C. Bastings

This study shows that interface flexibility, rather than binding strength, is crucial for controlling the nucleation and growth of supramolecular crystalline networks.

Labile assembly of a tardigrade protein induces biostasis

S. Sanchez-Martinez, K. Nguyen, S. Biswas, V. Nicholson, A. V. Romanyuk, J. F. Ramirez, S. KC, A. Akter, C. Childs, E. T. Usher, G. M. Ginell, F. Yu, E. Gollub, M. Malferrari, F. Francia, , T. C. Boothby

This study identifies a mechanism by which tardigrade CAHS D proteins form gels to protect cells during desiccation, showing that gelation reduces molecular motion and metabolic activity, with reversible effects.
