A minimal subset of two to three residues in cyclic nucleotide binding (CNB) domains controls nucleoside vs. cyclic nucleotide specificity, repurposing PKA of certain pathogens for novel nucleoside signaling pathways or sensing.
Combined cutting-edge technologies discovered a pair of carboxylate transporters that appears evolutionarily different among novel transporters and that is essential for parasite physiology.
