This study identifies an alternate protease in S. pneumoniae TIGR4 that rescues ribosomal protein bL27 maturation in the absence of Prp.

The paper investigates the structure and function of the portal protein in Staphylococcus aureus bacteriophage 80α, showing temperature-dependent ring formation and domain-specific roles in assembly and DNA packaging.

The paper determines the structure of S. marcescens Type III CRISPR complex and shows it can detect SNPs in human transcripts associated with sickle cell disease.

This study shows that the Prp protease cleaves the N-terminal extension of ribosomal protein L27 in S. pneumoniae, and that this cleavage is essential for viability, though the extension itself is not required.

The paper determines the high-resolution structure of the neck of SaPI1 virions, revealing interactions between DNA, tail completion protein, and tape measure protein.
