In Chapter 13, “The Final Assault,” author Venki Ramakrishnan relays the moment when he and collaborators finally solved the structure of a ribosomal subunit.

Modified cryogenic electron microscopy can analyze viral structures better than ever before.

The receptors, found in so-called elite controllers who don’t need medications to keep the virus in check, suggest a new path toward immunotherapy.

Philip Coppens, who developed photocrystallography, has passed away at age 86.

A modification to traditional docking software enables the examination of a ligand’s passage into its receptor.

A software upgrade follows ligands step-wise into their binding sites on receptors.

Metagenomic sequence data boosts the power of protein modeling software to yield hundreds of new protein structure predictions.

See an animation that illustrates emerging insights into the inner ring structures of the nuclear pore complex.

The ribosome-associated organelle consists of tightly packed tubes, not flat sheets as previously believed, according to new super-resolution microscopy images.
