New lakes in the Taklamakan Desert [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2012
At the beginning of this century, some new lakes unexpectedly appeared in the Taklamakan Desert – one of the largest and driest deserts in the world. The origin of the water in the new lakes, however, has been a matter of debate. We test the hypotheses by analyzing water samples collected from the new lakes, the Bosten Lake and the foothills of the ...

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.
