    Transparent soil microcosms for live-cell imaging and non-destructive stable isotope probing of soil microorganisms

    Kriti Sharma, Márton Palatinszky ... Elizabeth A Shank
    Two optically transparent substrates enable the exploration of the ecophysiology and spatiotemporal organization and activities of bacteria and fungi within heterogeneous soil-like environments.

    Silencing cryptic specialized metabolism in Streptomyces by the nucleoid-associated protein Lsr2

    Emma J Gehrke, Xiafei Zhang ... Marie A Elliot
    In Streptomyces, the nucleoid-associated protein Lsr2 functions as a xenogenic silencer of foreign genes, and as a metabolic gatekeeper, repressing expression of both cryptic and well-studied specialized metabolic biosynthetic clusters.

    Single-molecule analysis reveals the phosphorylation of FLS2 governs its spatiotemporal dynamics and immunity

    Yaning Cui, Hongping Qian ... Jinxing Lin
    The phosphorylation of FLS2 may activate flg22-triggered immunity by facilitating the partitioning of FLS2 into functional AtRem1.3-associated nanodomains.

    Nucleotide binding to the ATP-cone in anaerobic ribonucleotide reductases allosterically regulates activity by modulating substrate binding

    Ornella Bimai, Ipsita Banerjee ... Derek T Logan
    The first structural and biochemical study of the role of the ATP-cone in anaerobic ribonucleotide reductases shows that dATP allosterically prevents transfer of a glycyl radical to the substrate.

    Intestinal GCN2 controls Drosophila systemic growth in response to Lactiplantibacillus plantarum symbiotic cues encoded by r/tRNA operons

    Théodore Grenier, Jessika Consuegra ... François Leulier
    Bacterial ribosomal and transfer RNAs are symbiotic clues sensed by host general control nonderepressible 2 to support Drosophila systemic growth.

    Distinct cytoskeletal proteins define zones of enhanced cell wall synthesis in Helicobacter pylori

    Jennifer A Taylor, Benjamin P Bratton ... Nina R Salama
    The helical bacterium Helicobacter pylori patterns cell wall synthesis using two distinct cytoskeletal proteins, CcmA and MreB, to achieve its characteristic shape.

    Cell-type diversity and regionalized gene expression in the planarian intestine

    David J Forsthoefel, Nicholas I Cejda ... Phillip A Newmark
    Application of laser-capture microdissection to planarian intestinal tissue provides a new tool for analysis of tissue-specific gene expression in flatworms, and a new resource to advance investigations of gastrointestinal regeneration.

    Host-pathogen genetic interactions underlie tuberculosis susceptibility in genetically diverse mice

    Clare M Smith, Richard E Baker ... Christopher M Sassetti
    A novel dual genome approach that combines genetically diverse mice and a library of bacterial mutants to define the genome-wide host pathogen interactions that drive distinct outcomes to tuberculosis.

    Supporting cells remove and replace sensory receptor hair cells in a balance organ of adult mice

    Stephanie A Bucks, Brandon C Cox ... Jennifer S Stone
    Cell fate-mapping with genetically-modified mouse models and cellular markers demonstrates that sensory hair cells in the vestibular portion of the inner ear are a dynamic population in adult mice that undergo cell death and replacement under normal conditions.
