Architecture of the Sema3A/PlexinA4/Neuropilin tripartite complex

Secreted class 3 semaphorins (Sema3s) form tripartite complexes with a plexin receptor and neuropilin co-receptor to transduce signals for neuronal axon guidance and other processes. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structure of the extracellular Sema3A/PlexinA4/Neuropilin1 complex that provide...
