This study identifies an aromatic patch in Mtb Wbl proteins that mediates interaction with the primary sigma 70 factor, revealing a conserved binding mechanism and evolutionary relationship with actinobacterial phages.

This study reveals the structural and functional mechanism of SufR-like iron-sulfur transcription factors in bacteria, showing a novel DNA recognition strategy and expanding their known evolutionary distribution.

This study identifies NUDT5 as a regulator of purine metabolism and thiopurine sensitivity by interacting with PPAT, independent of its known enzymatic activity.
