    Disordered regions and folded modules in CAF-1 promote histone deposition in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

    Fouad Ouasti, Maxime Audin ... Francoise Ochsenbein
    Histone, PCNA, and DNA binding are essential for CAF-1 functions in preventing DNA damage during DNA replication in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, while its C-terminal domain specifies distinct cellular processes.

    Malaria parasites require a divergent heme oxygenase for apicoplast gene expression and biogenesis

    Amanda Mixon Blackwell, Yasaman Jami-Alahmadi ... Paul A Sigala
    Plasmodium parasites have repurposed the heme oxygenase scaffold from its canonical heme-degrading function to fulfill an essential and adaptive role in gene expression within the apicoplast organelle.

    MftG is crucial for ethanol metabolism of mycobacteria by linking mycofactocin oxidation to respiration

    Ana Patrícia Graça, Vadim Nikitushkin ... Gerald Lackner
    The mftG gene, present in the majority of mycofactocin gene clusters, encodes an oxidoreductase that facilitates ethanol utilization by reoxidation of mycofactocins and channeling electrons towards the respiratory chain.

    Dynamic regulation of chromatin accessibility by pluripotency transcription factors across the cell cycle

    Elias T Friman, Cédric Deluz ... David M Suter
    OCT4 and SOX2 display partially independent activity to regulate chromatin accessibility, and highly dynamic activity of OCT4 is required throughout the cell cycle to maintain pluripotency enhancer accessibility.
