A nucleotide-triggered molecular switch orchestrating septin polymerization

Benjamin Grupp, Benjamin Jäckel, Assmann Gunter…·Thomas Gronemeyer

This study identifies a nucleotide-triggered mechanism that stabilizes the G-interface and enables NC-interface assembly in septins, revealing unidirectional allosteric signaling during filament formation.
