Review
In this Review, Sheedlo et al. compare the molecular architectures of T4SSs, focusing especially on the structures of core complexes. They discuss structural features that are shared by multiple T4SSs as well as evolutionary strategies used for T4SS diversification. Finally, they discuss how structural variations among T4SSs may confer specialized functional properties.

Research Article
Kleer et al. show SARS-CoV-2 and the common cold CoVs, OC43 and 229E, induce processing body loss. Ectopic expression of the N proteins from five other human coronaviruses did not cause significant PB disassembly, suggesting that this feature is unique to the SARS-CoV-2 N protein.
