Cryo‐EM structures of multiple‐peptide resistance factor (MprF) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Cryo‐EM analysis of MprF from Pseudomonas aeruginosa reveals a dimeric enzyme, distinct from Rhizobium homologues. The soluble GNAT domain contains a dynamic amphipathic helix (TTH) that adopts different positions in detergent micelle and nanodisc, relative to the membrane.

Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications in the endoplasmic reticulum stress response
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates various proteostasis control processes, including the unfolded protein response, ribosome‐associated quality control, and ER‐associated degradation. Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications dynamically regulate these processes to determine cell fate, promoting adaptation or inducing cell death.

Dual IRE1 targets: Determinants of the cell fate?
IRE1 is an ER stress sensor that restores protein homeostasis through two signaling activities: XBP1s, which upregulates its target gene expression or RIDD which downregulates its target transcripts. We recently identified Dual IRE1 Targets (DIT) which are modulated by both XBP1s and RIDD activities.

ABSTRACT Aim The aim was to characterize the taxonomic and functional composition of the microbiome involved in primary endodontic infections and to evaluate their association with the periapical lesion size using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. Methodology Samples from primary root canal infections diagnosed with apical periodontitis were analysed ...
