A humanized transgenic mouse model reveals that CD1b-restricted, mycolic acid-specific T cells play a protective role during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.

Using a short peptide to regulate the activity of HCN ion channels illustrates how physiological modulators could inspire new drugs. .

Dubbed the 'green yeast', the model alga C. reinhardtii has profoundly advanced many areas of biology, but much remains to be learnt about its life in the wild.

A better understanding of the mechanisms underpinning the growth of mycobacteria could help identify targets for new antibiotics.

Redox modification of STING represents a novel target for interferon regulation and control of herpesvirus replication.

Genetic and molecular analyses identify and characterize an evolutionary battle over lysis timing wherein a bacteriophage delays lysis through lysis inhibition while a defensive phage satellite accelerates lysis.

By sterically hindering tRNA binding and inhibiting translation elongation, mRNA stem-loops can modulate gene expression.

The dynamic interplay between type III CRISPR enzymes governs cyclic nucleotide levels and infection outcomes in virus-host conflict.
