The paper presents the first X-ray structure of an NtA-mediated asymmetric BRAF dimer bound to MEK1, showing it is a catalytically active state, not an intermediate in BRAF activation.

The paper investigates how the GTPase Ran/Gsp1 achieves functional multi-specificity through biophysical and genetic perturbations, revealing that its effects are linked to kinetic parameters of the switch cycle rather than direct interaction sites.

Affinity-purification mass spectrometry of 26 SARS-CoV-2 proteins in HEK293T cells yields 332 high-confidence host interactions and 67 druggable human proteins with known compounds.
