    Helicase Loading: A back-up mechanism for replication

    Godefroid Charbon, Anders Løbner-Olesen
    A protein called PriC allows DNA replication to proceed in Escherichia coli when the complex that usually initiates this process is compromised.

    Primosomal protein PriC rescues replication initiation stress by bypassing the DnaA-DnaB interaction step for DnaB helicase loading at oriC

    Ryusei Yoshida, Kazuma Korogi ... Tsutomu Katayama
    PriC provides a bypass mechanism for compromised helicase loading at the origin of the Escherichia coli chromosome, which ensures the robustness of the chromosome replication initiation.

    A bacterial regulatory uORF senses multiple classes of ribosome-targeting antibiotics

    Gabriele Baniulyte, Joseph T Wade
    An upstream open-reading frame in Escherichia coli regulates expression of the downstream genes in response to diverse translation stresses.

    Oxydifficidin, a potent Neisseria gonorrhoeae antibiotic due to DedA-assisted uptake and ribosomal protein RplL sensitivity

    Jingbo Kan, Adrian Morales-Amador ... Sean F Brady
    Oxydifficidin presents potent activity against multidrug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhea with a new mode of action, which opens a new avenue for potentially addressing antibiotic resistant gonorrhea.

    Phase transition of WTAP regulates m6A modification of interferon-stimulated genes

    Sihui Cai, Jie Zhou ... Jun Cui
    IFN-β-induced WTAP phase transition bridges STAT1 and MTC, which orchestrates m6A dynamics on ISG mRNAs to suppress excessive immune response and sustain immune homeostasis.
