Dynamic stiffening of the flagellar hook

Bacterial motility relies on the mechanics of the “hook” the 60 nm biopolymer at the base of rotating flagella. Here, authors observe the hook stiffening as it is twisted by the rotation of the flagellum, a mechanical feat evolved for its function.

Sulphur shuttling across a chaperone during molybdenum cofactor maturation

Microbial formate dehydrogenases (FDH) are molybdenum-containing enzymes that can catalyse the reduction of CO₂ into formate. Here, the authors suggest a structural and functional basis for sulphuration of the molybdenum cofactor in E. coliFDH, a key step in the production of active formate dehydrogenase.
