    Reactive oxygen detoxification contributes to Mycobacterium abscessus antibiotic survival

    Nicholas A Bates, Ronald Rodriguez ... Bennett H Penn
    Antibiotics that inhibit translation cause a burst in reactive oxygen species, and these must be detoxified by factors such as KatG for cells to survive.

    The adaptive landscapes of three global Escherichia coli transcriptional regulators

    Cauã Antunes Westmann, Leander Goldbach, Andreas Wagner
    Across three global Escherichia coli regulators, identical starting sequences can evolve toward many distinct strong-binding peaks, with chance, historical contingency, and evolutionary bias shaping which outcomes prevail.
