Human Coronavirus Photodynamic Inactivation and In Silico Mechanisms Induced by Ga(III) vs. Zn(II) Phthalocyanines [PDF]
Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) is a relatively new approach for targeting viruses. Recently, PDI has been shown to be effective against various viral infections, with a low probability of resistance development.

The expression of novel PII-like protein from Lentilactobacillus hilgardii [PDF]
Abstract The understanding of molecular mechanisms of bacterial adaptation to environmental changes represents the basis for maintaining the homeostasis of microbiomes of natural and artificial biotopes. Lactic acid bacteria are presented everywhere in the environment and present the indigenous microflora of various fermented substrates,

Building coiled coils with polar cores. [PDF]
Abstract Coiled coils are formed by α‐helices winding around each other into superhelical bundles. They are characterized by a specific geometry of interaction, called knobs‐into‐holes, in which residues in the core of the structure mesh regularly along a seam that runs the length of the helices.

The PII signaling protein from red algae represents an evolutionary link between cyanobacterial and Chloroplastida PII proteins [PDF]
Abstract PII superfamily consists of widespread signal transduction proteins found in all domains of life. Whereas they are well-studied in Archaea, Bacteria and Chloroplastida, no PII homolog has been analyzed in Rhodophyta (red algae), where PII is encoded by a chloroplast localized glnB

Avirulence genes of Magnaporthe oryzae are a pathogen defense arsenal shaped by cognate rice resistance genes in the field. [PDF]
Population structure and AVR gene presence/absence of 383 single‐spore isolates from the US Mo population. Summary We examined the frequency of and variation in eight avirulence (AVR) genes from 840 Magnaporthe oryzae field isolates collected from the Southern United States relative to rice resistance (R) genes deployed from 1959 to 2017. Little coding

Keeping in Touch with PII: PII-Interacting Proteins in Unicellular Cyanobacteria [PDF]
PII protein is conserved among bacteria, archaea and plants, and is thought to function as a carbon/nitrogen balance sensor in these organisms. Recently, several proteins that specifically interact with PII, including a PII phosphatase (PphA), an amino acid biosynthetic enzyme (NAGK), a probable membrane channel (PamA) and a small protein (PipX) that ...

Comparative genome assemblies reveal distinct allelic and structural variation at blast resistance loci in rice CT21375-F4-4 and Moroberekan. [PDF]
Abstract Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, remains a major constraint to rice (Oryza sativa L.) production, and durable resistance will require broader use of genetic diversity beyond commonly studied elite cultivars. We present chromosome‐scale genome assemblies of two agronomically significant but genetically divergent rice cultivars: CT21375‐

The PII family comprises a group of widely distributed signal transduction proteins ubiquitous in prokaryotes and in the chloroplasts of plants. PII proteins sense the levels of key metabolites ATP, ADP, and 2-oxoglutarate, which affect the PII protein ...
