Here we present the crystal structure of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51 filament formed by a gain-of-function mutant.

CRISPR-Cas systems help to protect bacteria from viruses. Several different types of CRISPR-Cas defense systems are found in bacteria, which differ in their composition and functions. Among them ...

Much like a Quipu cord, the structure is intricate, consisting of a central filament with multiple branching strands. Spanning approximately 1.3 billion light-years—over 13,000 times the length ...

We present Brownian dynamics simulation results of driven semiflexible filaments with intrinsic curvature and investigate how the interplay between filament rigidity and radius of curvature can tune ...
