Abstract Repair of Iron Centers (RIC) proteins are present in several pathogens, including Staphylococcus aureus, contributing to resistance to nitroxidative stress and virulence. In this work, we investigated the molecular mechanisms by which S. aureus RIC facilitates iron mobilization, through structural analyses and functional studies.

S. cerevisiae tolerance to plumbagin.
Yeast cells harvested in mid log phase, were directly stressed with 7.0 μM plumbagin (white bars) or were previously treated with 0.5 μM plumbagin/1 h and then submitted to severe stress conditions (black bars).

Antimicrobial activity in vitro of plumbagin isolated from Plumbago species
Plumbagin is a naturally occurring naphthoquinone isolated from roots of Plumbago scandens. The plant was collected at the Campus of Fundação Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. P. scandens is used as a traditional medicine for the treatment of several

Crystal structure of Methanococcus jannaschii dihydroorotase with substrate bound
We present the 1.87 Å resolution structure of M. jannaschii dihydroorotase complexed with the substrate carbamoyl aspartate at room temperature. Contrary to expectations, a flexible loop which is important in catalysis and closes upon substrate binding in order to stabilize the substrate and transition state is observed in both the loop‐out and loop‐in
