Crystal Structure of the MecA Degradation Tag [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
MecA is an adaptor protein that regulates the assembly and activity of the ATP-dependent ClpCP protease in Bacillus subtilis. MecA contains two domains. Although the amino-terminal domain of MecA recruits substrate proteins such as ComK and ComS, the carboxyl-terminal domain (residues 121-218) has dual roles in the regulation and function of ClpCP ...

Do ESG Leaders Achieve Higher Firm Financial Performance? The Influence of Women Directors and Controversial Industries

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the growing pressure on companies to achieve high ESG performance while minimising ESG controversies, this study investigates how ESG performance and ESG controversies jointly affect firm financial performance (measured as ROA and ROE), considering the effect of the presence of women directors and of operating in controversial versus non‐

Rapid Microarray-Based Identification of Different mecA Alleles in Staphylococci [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
To screen isolates and to identify mecA alleles, published mecA sequences were analyzed, and a microarray for the rapid discrimination of mecA alleles was designed. A GenBank analysis yielded 135 full-length gene sequences annotated as mecA.

Green Talk, Costly Walk: The Financial Cost of Greenwashing

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the financial consequences of greenwashing, operationalized as the misalignment between ESG disclosure and actual ESG performance. While prior research has explored the reputational and ethical dimensions of greenwashing, its impact on firms' cost of debt remains underexamined.

Genotyping of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus by assaying for the presence of variable elements associated with mecA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The region surrounding mecA in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is highly variable. We describe an approach for the rapid genotyping of MRSA by assaying for the presence or absence of variable or mobile elements previously shown to be ...
