    A macroevolution-inspired approach to reveal novel antibiotic resistance mechanisms

    Fernanda T Subtil, Teresa FG Machado ... Luiz Pedro S de Carvalho
    Using macroevolution, species not strains, uncovered important diversity in how mycobacteria respond to and resist antibiotics, revealing novel resistance determinants.

    Membrane binding controls the ATPase cycle and localization of MinD in Bacillus subtilis

    Helge Feddersen, Charlotte Dyckmans, Marc Bramkamp
    Dynamic relocalization of MinD in Bacillus subtilis arises from membrane binding of monomers and dimers with membrane-triggered ATP hydrolysis, suggesting MinE-like activators are unnecessary for Min system dynamics.
