Polyesterase activity and thermostability of carboxylesterases from Thermoleophilum album YS‐3
Three novel α/β‐hydrolases from thermophilic bacterium Thermoleophilum album display carboxylesterase and polyesterase activity. These enzymes hydrolyse PET, PLA and PCL both at high and moderate temperatures. TA21 shows superior activity, efficiently converting MHET to terephthalic acid. Structural features underlying substrate binding highlight their

Biogenesis of TNF‐α‐insights into proteostasis and inflammation
TNF‐α biogenesis, trafficking, and signalling are tightly and reciprocally coupled to cellular proteostasis systems, including ER chaperones and endoplasmic reticulum‐associated degradation. This bidirectional crosstalk determines whether TNF‐α responses are adaptive or proteotoxic.

Ligand binding represses bacterial histidine kinase activity by inhibiting its dimerization
PdtaS is a kinase in the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis that senses copper and nitric oxide and controls virulence gene expression, but how the kinase senses these compounds was unclear. We show that PdtaS is active as a dimer with each monomer phosphorylating the other in trans.

ABSTRACT Background Primary or persistent endodontic disease is caused by microbial biofilms that irritate the pulp and periapical tissues. Extensive microbiological analyses of these biofilms and their constituent pathogens have revealed their diversity and complexity.
