This paper uses advanced microscopy to show that SARS-CoV-2 attaches to and enters cells via heparan sulfate clusters, not ACE2, and that blocking HS binding inhibits viral infection.

The paper shows that choroid plexus cilia undergo axoneme resorption through microtubule destabilization, controlled by polyglutamylation and spastin, and is conserved in human samples.

The paper uses MINFLUX nanoscopy to visualize the molecular architecture of the photoreceptor active zone, revealing a serially duplicated complex of bassoon-RIM2-ubMunc13-2-CAST.
