The paper identifies 5-thiooxazoles as the cysteine post-translational modifications in bufferins using isotopic labeling and confirms consistency with related MNIO families.

The paper identifies TFX as an antibiotic that inhibits arginyl-tRNA synthetase by acting as a Trojan-horse molecule, revealing it belongs to a broader family of natural inhibitors targeting various tRNA synthetases.

MultiNMRFit is a software tool for analyzing NMR spectra to extract signal parameters, offering flexibility and robustness in metabolomics and isotope labeling studies.

The paper introduces dynafluxr, a method to estimate metabolic flux dynamics from metabolite concentration time courses using constrained B-splines, showing it works well on both simulated and experimental data.

The paper identifies and characterizes the diversity of substrates and partner proteins for multinuclear non-heme iron-dependent oxidative (MNIO) enzymes, revealing new insights into their role in bacterial copper homeostasis and potential broader stress responses.

This paper identifies bufferins, a widespread family of ribosomal peptide metallophores that help bacteria adapt to copper stress by sequestering excess copper ions.

The paper identifies two distinct transporters, BacA and YejABEF, that mediate the uptake of the peptide antibiotic phazolicin in Sinorhizobium meliloti, reducing resistance acquisition.
