Common evolutionary origins of the bacterial glycyl tRNA synthetase and alanyl tRNA synthetase

C. Alvarez-Carreno, M. Arciniega, L. Ribas de Pouplana, A. S. Petrov, A. Hernandez-Gonzalez, M. I. Valencia-Sanchez, L. D. Williams, A. Torres-Larios

The paper investigates the evolutionary origins of bacterial glycyl tRNA synthetase (bacGlyRS) and its relationship to alanyl tRNA synthetase, finding common ancestral domains and suggesting a stepwise domain accumulation process.

The Evolution of Protein Folds by Creative Destruction

C. Alvarez-Carreno, R. J. Gupta, A. S. Petrov, L. D. Williams

The paper identifies a mechanism called creative destruction that explains how new protein folds evolve from existing ones through gene duplication, merging, and adaptation.

An updated structural model of the A domain of the Pseudomonas putida XylR regulator exposes a distinct interplay with aromatic effectors

P. Dvorak, C. Alvarez-Carreno, S. Ciordia, A. Paradela, V. de Lorenzo

The paper presents an updated structural model of the XylR A domain in Pseudomonas putida, revealing how aromatic effectors influence its folding and activation rather than binding dynamically to a pre-formed structure.
