Nucleoid‐associated proteins play a crucial role in the compaction of bacterial DNA and the regulation of gene expression. The emergence of small noncoding RNAs as regulatory elements in these processes represents a major development in our understanding of bacterial biology.

A series of benzimidazolium chlorides and their 2‐mercapto were successfully synthesized and characterized. Cytotoxic activity assays revealed that certain synthesized compounds exhibited efficacy against cancer cell lines. To investigate the possible mechanism underlying their cytotoxic effects, the binding interactions of the three most active ...

Ion channel magnetic pharmacology. Mechanosensitive ion channels and calcium signaling might be regulated using moderate static uniform and gradient magnetic fields. It also appears possible to manipulate the activity of voltage‐gated channels and cytosolic Ca2⁺ levels with low‐frequency magnetic fields.

Regulation of DNA Topology in Archaea: State of the Art and Perspectives
DNA topoisomerases are ubiquitous enzymes that play a crucial role in regulating DNA supercoiling which affects fundamental biological processes involving DNA. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of regulation of supercoiling by DNA topoisomerases in the third domain of life, the Archaea, with a particular focus on three key model ...

Physical models of bacterial chromosomes
Connecting experimental observations to biophysical models can give rise to new insights on bacterial chromosome organization. Simple polymer models explore how physical constraints affect bacterial chromosome organization; bottom‐up mechanistic models connect these constraints to their underlying causes; and data‐driven models are inferred directly ...

Control of bacterial DNA supercoiling [PDF]
SummaryTwo DNA topoisomerases control the level of negative supercoiling in bacterial cells. DNA gyrase introduces supercoils, and DNA topoisomerase I prevents super‐coiling from reaching unacceptably high levels. Perturbations of supercoiling are corrected by the substrate preferences of these topoisomerases with respect to DNA topology and by changes
