The toxin–antitoxin complex Fic‐1–AntF functions as a deAMPylase that regulates the activity of DNA gyrase

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems found in diverse bacteria play important roles in their adaptation to changing environments. The toxin of the Fic‐1–AntF TA pair from Pseudomonas bijieensis strain 2P24 inhibits bacterial DNA replication by attacking the subunit B of DNA gyrase (GyrB) via AMPylation, while the antitoxin AntF blocks its enzymatic ...

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Turnip Yellow Mosaic Virus RNA as a Substrate of the Transfer RNA Nucleotidyltransferase II. Incorporation of Cytidine 5′-Monophosphate and Determination of a Short Nucleotide Sequence at the 3′ End of the RNA [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1973
Turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV) RNA treated with snake venom phosphodiesterase accepts cytidine 5′-monophosphate and adenosine 5′-monophosphate (AMP) when it is incubated in the presence of cytidine 5′-triphosphate (CTP), adenosine 5′-triphosphate, and Escherichia coli transfer RNA nucleotidyltransferase ...

Ro5‐4864, a ligand of the mitochondrial translocator protein, protects against heart failure in mice via regulation of the p62‐Keap1‐Nrf2 axis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Graphical abstract of the proposed Ro5‐4864 mechanism of action via p62‐Keap1‐Nrf2 axis in heart failure. TSPO, the 18‐kDa mitochondrial translocator protein of the outer mitochondrial membrane, can directly interact with p62 (also known as SQSTM1), which is crucial for the degradation of damaged mitochondria by autophagy ...

Sequence motifs that distinguish ATP(CTP) : tRNA nucleotidyl transferases from eubacterial poly(A) polymerases [PDF]

, 2004
ATP(CTP):tRNA nucleotidyl transferases, tRNA maturing enzymes found in all organisms, and eubacterial poly(A) polymerases, enzymes involved in mRNA degradation, are so similar that until now their biochemical functions could not be distinguished by their

Epigenetic Aging in Brain Tissue of the Self‐Fertilizing Vertebrate, Kryptolebias marmoratus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using the self‐fertilizing vertebrate Kryptolebias marmoratus, we developed an epigenetic clock from brain tissue that predicts chronological age with high accuracy, demonstrating that DNA methylation changes consistently with age even in the near absence of genetic variation. The 40 age‐associated CpG sites identified map to genes with conserved roles

Mutation in PNPT1 , which Encodes a Polyribonucleotide Nucleotidyltransferase, Impairs RNA Import into Mitochondria and Causes Respiratory-Chain Deficiency [PDF]

The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2012
Multiple-respiratory-chain deficiency represents an important cause of mitochondrial disorders. Hitherto, however, mutations in genes involved in mtDNA maintenance and translation machinery only account for a fraction of cases. Exome sequencing in two siblings, born to consanguineous parents, with severe encephalomyopathy, choreoathetotic movements ...

Whole‐Genome Sequence Profiling of Listeria innocua From Different Sources: Implications for Public Health

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
The studied strains, LIN_NWU_CNKT and LIN5_NWU_CNKT, exhibit invasiveness, pathogenicity, and MDR profiles. The isolation of these strains from food products and water underscores their significant public health implications, particularly in the context of the “One Health” concept.

High-Resolution Mapping of 3’ Extremities of RNA Exosome Substrates by 3’ RACE-Seq

, 2019
The main 3'-5' exoribonucleolytic activity of eukaryotic cells is provided by the RNA exosome. The exosome is constituted by a core complex of nine subunits (Exo9), which coordinates the recruitment and the activities of distinct types of cofactors.
