Electrical conductivity in the mantle transition zone beneath eastern Central Asian Orogenic Belt revealed by geomagnetic signals.

In the eastern segment of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), there is widespread volcanic magma activity. However, there is still considerable controversy over the formation mechanisms and material sources of these volcanoes. The mantle transition zone (MTZ), as a necessary channel for the upward and downward movement of mantle material and energy exchange may provide crucial constraints on the dynamic mechanisms of volcanic activity.

The heterodimeric Rab3GAP complex is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for the Rab18 GTPase that regulates lipid droplet metabolism, ER-to-Golgi trafficking, secretion, and autophagy. Why both subunits of Rab3GAP are required for Rab18 GEF activity and the molecular basis of how Rab3GAP engages and activates its cognate substrate are unknown. Here we show that human Rab3GAP is conformationally flexible and potentially autoinhibited by the C-terminal domain of its Rab3GAP2 subunit.

Multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2) is an ATP-powered exporter important for maintaining liver homeostasis and a potential contributor to chemotherapeutic resistance. Using cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM), we determine the structures of human MRP2 in three conformational states: an autoinhibited state, a substrate-bound pre-translocation state, and an ATP-bound post-translocation state. In the autoinhibited state, the cytosolic regulatory (R) domain plugs into the transmembrane substrate-binding site and extends into the cytosol to form a composite ATP-binding site at the surface of nucleotide-binding domain 2.

Phenazine biosynthesis-like domain-containing protein (PBLD) and Cedrelone have been identified as tumor suppressors. However, their roles in virus infection remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that PBLD upregulates the type I interferon (IFN-I) response through activating NF-kappaB (NF-κB) signaling pathway to resist viral infection in cells and mice.

Human DNA licensing initiates replication fork assembly and DNA replication. This reaction promotes the loading of the hMCM2-7 complex on DNA, which represents the core of the replicative helicase that unwinds DNA during S-phase. Here, we report the reconstitution of human DNA licensing using purified proteins.
