Plasminogen (Plg) is the inactive form of plasmin (Plm) that exists in two major glycoforms, referred to as glycoforms I and II (GI and GII). In the circulation, Plg assumes an activation-resistant “closed” conformation via interdomain interactio

Macrophage-expressed gene 1 (MPEG1) functions within the phagolysosome to damage engulfed microbes, presumably via forming pores in target membranes. In order to provide insights into the mechanism of MPEG1 function and membrane binding, the authors

Conjugative transfer of antibiotic resistance plasmid pCW3 in Clostridium perfringens is mediated by the tcp locus. Here, the authors identify a wHTH-type protein, TcpK, that is essential for efficient plasmid transfer and interacts with the plasmid

The Complement component 9 (C9) is the pore-forming component of the Membrane Attack Complex which targets pathogens. Here authors use structural biology to compare monomeric C9 to C9 within the polymeric assembly and identify the element which inhib

The diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer (PCa) is a major health-care concern worldwide. This cancer can manifest itself in many distinct forms and the transition from clinically indolent PCa to the more invasive aggressive form remains poorly

The membrane attack complex is a heteromeric assembly of complement proteins where multiple copies of C9 are recruited by the C5b678 complex to form lytic pores in pathogen membranes. Here the authors present the structure of a soluble pore-like form

The muscular dystrophies encompass a broad range of pathologies with varied clinical outcomes. In the case of patients carrying defects in fukutin-related protein (FKRP), these diverse pathologies arise from mutations within the same gene. This is su

Macrophage-expressed gene 1 (MPEG1/Perforin-2) is a perforin-like protein that functions within the phagolysosome to damage engulfed microbes. MPEG1 is thought to form pores in target membranes, however, its mode of action remains unknown. We use cry
