    Dimer-monomer transition defines a hyper-thermostable peptidoglycan hydrolase mined from bacterial proteome by lysin-derived antimicrobial peptide-primed screening

    Li Zhang, Fen Hu ... Hang Yang
    A new peptidoglycan hydrolase mined from Acinetobacter baumannii proteome by lysin-derived antimicrobial peptide-primed screening strategy undergoes a unique switch between dimer and monomer after heat treatment and protects mice from A. baumannii infection.

    Variation in thermal physiology can drive the temperature-dependence of microbial community richness

    Tom Clegg, Samraat Pawar
    A novel theory demonstrates how variation in the thermal responses of microbial populations can alter coexistance and thus explain patterns of richness across thermal gradients.
