Here, we determined structures of the SARS-CoV-2 RTC in the pre- and post-capping initiation (CI) states. In the pre-CI state, the RTC has a dimer-of-dimeric architecture (ddRTC). The upstream RNA duplex in one RTC is reciprocally unwound by a helicase in a head-to-head-positioned RTC in the 3'-5' direction. The helicases bind either ADP or ADP⋅P<sub>i</sub> in their ATP-binding pockets, suggesting a mechanism for ATP-hydrolysis-driven unwinding. In the post-CI state, the binding of nsp9 to the nsp12 nidovirus RdRp-associated nucleotidyltransferase (NiRAN) disrupts the ddRTC. The N terminus of nsp9 and the triphosphorylated 5' end of the product strand co-localize in NiRAN's catalytic site, exhibiting the state prior to nsp9 RNAylation for capping.

Here, we report the accurate <em>de novo</em> design of voltage-gated anion channels, namely dVGACs. dVGACs adopt a 15-helix pentameric architecture featuring arginine constrictions within the transmembrane span and show voltage-dependent anions currents in patch-clamp experiments. Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of dVGACs closely align with the design models. Cryo-EM structures and molecular dynamics simulations suggest that the arginine constrictions undergo voltage-induced conformational changes, serving as both a voltage sensor and a selectivity filter as designed. Notably, the anion selectivity and voltage sensitivity of dVGACs can be tuned through targeted mutations for suppressing neuronal firing <em>in situ</em>. The ability to create ion channels with custom-designed conformational changes refreshes our insights into membrane biophysics and unveils diverse potential applications.","PeriodicalId":9656,"journal":{"name":"Cell","volume":"93 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":64.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145295528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
