Structural Basis of Toll-Like Receptor 3 Signaling with Double-Stranded RNA
To establish the molecular basis for ligand binding and signaling, the crystal structure of a complex between two mouse TLR3-ECDs and dsRNA is determined at 3.4 angstrom resolution.

The molecular structure of the Toll-like receptor 3 ligand-binding domain.
The TLR3-ECD structure indicates how LRR loops can establish distinct pathogen recognition receptors, including insertions in the LRRs and 11 N-linked glycans.
The efficacy of a Salmonella typhi Vi conjugate vaccine in two-to-five-year-old children.
The antibody responses and the efficacy suggest that the Vi-rEPA conjugate typhoid vaccine should be at least as protective in persons who are more than five years old.
CtIP maintains stability at common fragile sites and inverted repeats by end resection-independent endonuclease activity.

Structures of the Multidrug Transporter P-glycoprotein Reveal Asymmetric ATP Binding and the Mechanism of Polyspecificity*♦
The linker-shortened mutant P-gp possesses basal ATPase activity and binds ATP only in its N-terminal nucleotide-binding domain, providing a mechanistic explanation for the polyspecificity of P- gp in substrate interactions.

It is demonstrated by pharmacological and hydrodynamic experiments that purified neurotensin receptor NTS1, a class A GPCR, dimerizes in detergent solution in a concentration-dependent manner, with an apparent affinity in the low nanomolar range.
