This study determines the structural basis of phage terminase recognition by Avs2 and Upx, revealing distinct binding mechanisms despite structural differences.

The paper identifies 90 structurally distinct STAND NTPase families in bacteria and archaea that recognize phage proteins, revealing their role in antiviral defense.

The paper develops a genetically encoded voltage indicator to measure subthreshold voltage dynamics in neurons, revealing electrical diversity and local computation.
