Structural analysis of the NifL‐NifA complex reveals the molecular basis of anti‐activation of nitrogen fixation gene expression in Azotobacter vinelandii

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Using cryo‐EM combined with biochemical and genetic approaches, we mapped the interaction surface between NifL and NifA to gain insights into the regulation of nitrogen fixation genes in A. vinelandii. Our findings suggest that NifL, a homolog of histidine kinases lacking phosphorylation activity, evolved to act as a steric block of NifA activity ...

Cas9 beyond CRISPR – SUMOylation, effector‐like potential and pathogenic adaptation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This Viewpoint explores the possibility that Cas9, beyond its canonical role in CRISPR immunity, may act as a host‐modulating effector during infection by Cas9‐encoding bacteria. Such a nucleomodulin‐like function could be influenced by eukaryotic post‐translational modifications, particularly SUMOylation, with potential implications for host–pathogen ...

Heterologous plastoquinone production using a newly identified O2‐dependent cyanobacterial hydroxylase

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we confirm that PlqH is the hydroxylase operating in plastoquinone biosynthesis in photosynthetic cyanobacteria (Cyanobacteriia). Our phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that cyanobacterial PlqH homologues originated from hydroxylases involved in ubiquinone biosynthesis in bacteria. Plastoquinone production in Escherichia coli was achieved

Binding of Bacillus subtilis dynamin‐like protein DynA to the bacterial membrane is essential for effective phage defense

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The bacterial dynamin‐like protein DynA from Bacillus subtilis plays a key role in phage defense. It binds the plasma membrane through a unique paddle domain in its D1 subunit. This membrane association is essential for its protective function, likely preventing explosive membrane rupture following phage infection.
