Driving the expression of the Salmonella enterica sv Typhimurium flagellum using flhDC from Escherichia coli results in key regulatory and cellular differences.

This study replaces E. coli flhDC genes with Salmonella enterica flhDC sequences and finds differences in flagellar gene expression and regulatory mechanisms.

Expanding Gene Families Helps Generate The Metabolic Robustness Required For Antibiotic Biosynthesis

The paper shows that gene family expansions in central carbon metabolism in Streptomyces bacteria contribute to metabolic robustness needed for antibiotic biosynthesis.
