Core gene set as the basis of multilocus sequence analysis of the subclass Actinobacteridae. [PDF]
Comparative genomic sequencing is shedding new light on bacterial identification, taxonomy and phylogeny. An in silico assessment of a core gene set necessary for cellular functioning was made to determine a consensus set of genes that would be useful ...

Advances and challenges in barcoding pathogenic and environmental Leptospira [PDF]
Leptospirosis is a zoonotic bacterial disease of global importance. A large spectrum of asymptomatic animal hosts can carry the infection and contribute to the burden of human disease.

SecY-mediated quality control prevents the translocation of non-gated porins
OmpC and OmpF are among the most abundant outer membrane proteins in E. coli and serve as hydrophilic channels to mediate uptake of small molecules including antibiotics.

Conformational Dynamics of the Plug Domain of the SecYEG Protein-conducting Channel [PDF]
The central pore of the SecYEG preprotein-conducting channel is closed at the periplasmic face of the membrane by a plug domain. To study its conformational dynamics, the plug was labeled site-specifically with an environment-sensitive fluorophore.

Structure of the SecY channel during initiation of protein translocation [PDF]
Many secretory proteins are targeted by signal sequences to a protein-conducting channel, formed by prokaryotic SecY- or eukaryotic Sec61-complexes, and are translocated across the membrane during their synthesis1,2.

Integrated structural analysis of N. vulgaris formate dehydrogenase AB, an enzyme with applications in climate change mitigation, is reported. The substrate/product diffusion pathways were fully mapped, and a retention site was identified that transiently holds substrates and has a key role in CO2‐reducing activity.

Cloning and Expression Analysis of Phytoplasma Protein Translocation Genes
Genes encoding SecA and SecY proteins, essential components of the Sec protein translocation system, were cloned from onion yellows phytoplasma, an unculturable plant pathogenic bacterium. The secA gene consists of 2,505 nucleotides encoding an 835 amino
