The Mysterious World of Non‐Canonical Caps – What We Know and Why We Need New Sequencing Techniques

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 3, February 1, 2025.
This review describes sophisticated methodologies such as LC–MS that enabled the identification of 5’ non‐canonical RNA caps and also surveys so far developed sequencing methods, evaluating their advantages and disadvantages. It emphasizes the need for developing new, reliable sequencing techniques to identify RNA types with non‐canonical caps enabling

Paradigms of convergent evolution in enzymes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 3, Page 537-555, February 2025.
Some enzymes are able to catalyse the same reaction despite possessing different structures. Here, we used a combined strategy of analysing published literature and knowledge‐based computational resources to explore this. We conclude that multiple varieties of convergent functional evolution exist to date, but that it is necessary to investigate ...

The two‐component system CpxA/CpxR regulates pathogenesis and stress adaptability in the poplar canker bacterium Lonsdalea populi

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 25, Issue 11, November 2024.
Lonsdalea populi CpxA/CpxR manipulates pathogenesis and stress response by influencing flagella formation and function, regulating the type III secretion system and modulating transcription of membrane protein‐coding gene yccA. Abstract Bacteria employ two‐component systems (TCSs) to rapidly sense and respond to their surroundings often and during ...

Strategies for Detecting Aminoacylation and Aminoacyl‐tRNA Editing in vitro and in Cells

open access: yesIsrael Journal of Chemistry, Volume 64, Issue 8-9, September 2024.
Abstract Aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) maintain translational fidelity by ensuring the formation of correct aminoacyl‐tRNA pairs. Numerous point mutations in human aaRSs have been linked to disease phenotypes. Structural studies of aaRSs from human pathogens encoding unique domains support these enzymes as potential candidates for therapeutics ...

Chloroplast NADH dehydrogenase‐like complex‐mediated cyclic electron flow is the main electron transport route in C4 bundle sheath cells

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 243, Issue 6, Page 2187-2200, September 2024.
Summary The superior productivity of C4 plants is achieved via a metabolic C4 cycle which acts as a CO2 pump across mesophyll and bundle sheath (BS) cells and requires an additional input of energy in the form of ATP. The importance of chloroplast NADH dehydrogenase‐like complex (NDH) operating cyclic electron flow (CEF) around Photosystem I (PSI) for ...

Marchantia polymorpha GOLDEN2‐LIKE transcriptional factor; a central regulator of chloroplast and plant vegetative development

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 243, Issue 4, Page 1406-1423, August 2024.
Summary The GOLDEN2‐LIKE (GLK) transcription factors act as a central regulatory node involved in both developmental processes and environmental responses. Marchantia polymorpha, a basal terrestrial plant with strategic evolutionary position, contains a single GLK representative that possesses an additional domain compared to spermatophytes.
