This study shows that archaeal ESCRT-III homologue CdvB1 binds phosphoinositides and helps polarize the cytokinetic membrane in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius.

The paper presents structural studies of the archaeal CdvAB cell division machinery, showing CdvA forms helical filaments and CdvB adopts ESCRT-III-like folds, revealing membrane engagement mechanisms.

This study determines the structure of the complete extracellular bacterial flagellum, revealing mechanisms of flagellin incorporation and filament assembly.

The paper determines the in situ structure of a high-torque bacterial flagellar motor using cryogenic electron microscopy, revealing protein adaptations and universal principles of torque generation.

This study identifies a small protein, PflE, essential for flagellar assembly and virulence in Campylobacter jejuni by using transposon sequencing in a humanized tissue model.
