Abstract Cyclodepsipeptides (CDPs) represent a huge family of chemically and structurally diverse molecules with a wide ability for molecular interactions. CDPs are cyclic peptide‐related natural products made up of both proteinogenic and nonproteinogenic amino acids linked by amide and ester bonds.

Cosmid Cloning of Five \u3cem\u3eZymomonas trp\u3c/em\u3e Genes by Complementation of \u3cem\u3eEscherichia coli\u3c/em\u3e and \u3cem\u3ePseudomonas putida trp\u3c/em\u3e Mutants [PDF]
A library of Zymomonas mobilis genomic DNA was constructed in the broad-host-range cosmid pLAFR1. The library was mobilized into a variety of Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas putida trp mutants by using the helper plasmid pRK2013. Five Z.

Evolution of substrate specificity in a recipient's enzyme following horizontal gene transfer [PDF]
Despite the prominent role of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in shaping bacterial metabolism, little is known about the impact of HGT on the evolution of enzyme function.

Cellular production of tryptophan is metabolically expensive and tightly regulated. The small Bacillus subtilis zinc binding Anti-TRAP protein (AT), which is the product of the yczA/rtpA gene, is upregulated in response to accumulating levels of ...

Sphingosine Phosphate Lyase Expression Is Essential for Normal Development in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
Sphingolipids are ubiquitous membrane constituents whose metabolites function as signaling molecules in eukaryotic cells. Sphingosine 1-phosphate, a key sphingolipid second messenger, regulates proliferation, motility, invasiveness, and programmed cell ...

Condition‐dependent resource allocation strategy governed by CodY regulator in Bacillus subtilis
Abstract To thrive in nature, bacteria have to rapidly proliferate in favorable conditions while constantly adapt to the fluctuating nutrient environments. However, the molecular players that ensure rapid growth of bacteria in favorable conditions remain poorly understood.

This study reveals that meta‐tyrosine (m‐Tyr), a nonproteinogenic analog of aromatic amino acids, disrupts protein synthesis and photosynthesis in cyanobacteria by being misincorporated by Phenylalanyl‐tRNA synthetase (PheRS) into essential proteins. Through molecular, biochemical, and proteomic analyses in Synechocystis, the research shows that m‐Tyr ...

The membrane‐bound heme flavoprotein MsrQ is the specific electron donor for the periplasmic methionine sulfoxide reductase MsrP. Analysis of its flavin environment revealed that ubiquinone (UQ) is a cofactor for MsrQ. However, redox studies demonstrate that UQ cannot function as an electron donor for the MsrPQ system.

An open reading frame upstream from the nifH gene of Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
An open reading frame upstream from nifHDK operon of Klebsiella pneumoniae had been described. The orientation of this open reading frame is opposite to that of nifHDK and sequence homology was found between the open reading frame promoter and the ...
