FIGL1 attenuates meiotic interhomolog repair and is counteracted by RAD51 paralog XRCC2 and chromosome axis protein ASY1 during meiosis

C. Emmenecker, S. Pakzad, F. Ture, J. Guerin, A. Hurel, A. Chambon, C. Girard, r. mercier, R. KUMAR

This study identifies FIGL1's role in attenuating meiotic interhomolog repair and shows that XRCC2 and ASY1 counteract FIGL1's effects in Arabidopsis.

A Tad-like apparatus is required for contact-dependent prey killing in predatory social bacteria

S. Seef, J. Herrou, P. de Boissier, L. My, G. Brasseur, D. Robert, R. Jain, R. Mercier, E. Cascales, B. H. Habermann, T. Mignot

This study identifies a new type IV filament-like machinery, Kil, involved in contact-dependent prey killing by Myxococcus xanthus, showing its role in motility arrest and prey cell plasmolysis.

Patronus is the elusive plant securin, preventing chromosome separation by antagonizing separase

L. Cromer, S. Jolivet, D. K. Singh, F. Berthier, N. De Winne, G. De Jaeger, S. Komaki, M. A. Prusicki, A. Schnittger, R. Guerois, R. Mercier

The paper identifies PANS1 and PANS2 as the plant securin homologs, showing they antagonize separase to regulate chromosome separation in Arabidopsis.
