Structural insights into the inhibition of bacterial RecA by naphthalene polysulfonated compounds
Summary: As a promising target for alternative antimicrobials, bacterial recombinase A (RecA) protein has attracted much attention for its roles in antibiotic-driven SOS response and mutagenesis. Naphthalene polysulfonated compounds (NPS) such as suramin

Microbial community succession on developing lesions on human enamel
Dental caries is one of the most common diseases in the world. However, our understanding of how the microbial community composition changes in vivo as caries develops is lacking.An in vivo model was used in a longitudinal cohort study to investigate ...

Reliable and robust control of nucleus centering is contingent on nonequilibrium force patterns
Summary: Cell centers their division apparatus to ensure symmetric cell division, a challenging task when the governing dynamics is stochastic. Using fission yeast, we show that the patterning of nonequilibrium polymerization forces of microtubule (MT ...
