Knocking out the FK506-binding protein in Plasmodium falciparum (PfFKBP35) affects ribosome homeostasis and results in a delayed death-like phenotype that is independent of the mode of action of FK506.

Structural analysis of the HipBST toxin–antitoxin system from E. coli shows how a toxin kinase has been split into two proteins and encodes its own inhibitor.
Enterovirus D68, a pathogen associated with a rare child paralysis disease, depends on the cellular protein SIRT-1 for release of virus, indicating that SIRT-1 may be an important therapeutic target.
σ28-Dependent sRNAs fine-tune flagella synthesis, with one sRNA connecting synthesis with metabolism and two sRNAs with opposing effects connecting synthesis with ribosomal protein production through unique binding within coding sequences.

Results from this modelled analysis indicate that short-term delays in HPV vaccination of adolescents are unlikely to have substantial long-term effects on HPV-related cancers, provided catch-up of missed vaccine doses can be implemented.
