2GD5 - PubMed Abstract: 
The vacuolar protein sorting machinery regulates multivesicular body biogenesis and is selectively recruited by enveloped viruses to support budding. Here we report the crystal structure of the human ESCRT-III protein CHMP3 at 2.8 A resolution. The core structure of CHMP3 folds into a flat helical arrangement that assembles into a lattice, mainly via two different dimerization modes, and unilaterally exposes a highly basic surface ...
