Cloning and Overexpressing Membrane Proteins Using Pichia pastoris (Komagataella phaffii)
Abstract Understanding the structure and function of key proteins located within biological membranes is essential for fundamental knowledge and therapeutic applications. Robust cell systems allowing their actual overexpression are required, among which stands the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris.

Dissecting a Charged Network at the Active Site of Orotidine-5′-phosphate Decarboxylase [PDF]
The crystal structure of yeast orotidine-5'-phosphate decarboxylase in complex with the postulated transition state analog, 6-hydroxyuridine-5'-phosphate, reveals contacts between this inhibitor and a novel quartet of charged residues (Lys-59, Asp-91, Lys-93, and Asp-96) within the active site. The structure also suggests a possible interaction between

Regulation of virulence in Francisella tularensis by small non-coding RNAs [PDF]
Using a cDNA cloning and sequencing approach we have shown that Francisella tularensis expresses homologues of several small RNAs (sRNAs) that are well-conserved among diverse bacteria.

Host reticulocytes provide metabolic reservoirs that can be exploited by malaria parasites [PDF]
Human malaria parasites proliferate in different erythroid cell types during infection. Whilst Plasmodium vivax exhibits a strong preference for immature reticulocytes, the more pathogenic P. falciparum primarily infects mature erythrocytes.

Structure and mechanism of acetolactate decarboxylase [PDF]
Acetolactate decarboxylase catalyzes the conversion of both enantiomers of acetolactate to the (R)-enantiomer of acetoin, via a mechanism that has been shown to involve a prior rearrangement of the non-natural (R)-enantiomer substrate to the natural (S ...

Remote Control of Eukaryotic Gene Expression by a Modular Ultrasound‐Responsive RNA Toolkit
A modular RNA‐based sonogenetic toolkit enables remote control of gene expression in eukaryotes by releasing small molecule modulators from ultrasound‐responsive carriers. These modulators activate engineered mRNA elements such as riboswitches, leading to tunable protein expression.

An Updated genome annotation for the model marine bacterium Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3 [PDF]
When the genome of Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3 was published in 2004, it represented the first sequence from a heterotrophic marine bacterium. Over the last ten years, the strain has become a valuable model for understanding the cycling of sulfur and carbon ...
