The ribosome‐associated complex regulates cytosolic translation upon mitoprotein‐induced stress

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Defects in mitochondrial protein import trigger a stress response. The contribution of translation regulation to such a response is only partially understood. We demonstrate that the deletion of mitochondrial surface proteins (TOM70/TOM71) leads to defects in mitochondrial biogenesis and slow growth.

Enzymatic synthesis of bioactive quinolones and (thio)coumarins by fungal type III polyketide synthases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Quinolones are valuable scaffolds for drug discovery but are rare in nature. Here, we show that two fungal enzymes, AthePKS and FerePKS, can generate 2‐quinolones and two additional heteroaromatic scaffolds. Using AthePKS, we designed an artificial enzymatic cascade towards an antimicrobial quinolone from a simple precursor and implemented it in E ...

ABSTRACT Flexible repayment benefits borrowers, but practitioners fear increased moral hazard. Investigating their concerns requires disentangling repayment choices from repayment capacity, which is typically infeasible in field studies. We use a lab‐in‐the‐field experiment with 645 microcredit borrowers to cleanly identify the effect of repayment ...
