Double mimicry evades tRNA synthetase editing by toxic vegetable-sourced non-proteinogenic amino acid [PDF]
Non-proteinogenic (np) amino acids in the food chain present challenges for the human translation machinery. Here the authors show that, while AlaRS and ProRS activate toxic np azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (Aze) present in sugar beets and lilies, only the

Leucyl-tRNA synthetase: double duty in amino acid sensing [PDF]
The cellular response to amino acids is controlled at the molecular level by TORC1. While many of the elements that participate in TORC1 signaling are known, we still have no clear idea how cells sense amino acids. Two recent studies found that leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LRS) is a leucine sensor for TORC1, in both yeast and mammalian cells.

Erratum: Leucyl-tRNA synthetase: double duty in amino acid sensing [PDF]
Due to a production error by the editorial office, this Research Highlight, which was originally published in the August issue of Cell Research (22:1207-1209. doi:10.1038/cr.2012.68; published online 24 April 2012), was inadvertently duplicated in the September issue (22:1312-1314).

Variations in Total Protein and Amino Acids in the Sequenced Sorghum Mutant Library
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) is the fifth most important cereal crop worldwide; however, its utilization in food products can be limited due to reduced nutritional quality related to amino acid composition and protein digestibility in cooked products.
