This study shows SigA forms amyloid fibrils that help Shigella sonnei compete with the microbiota by forming complexes with colicin E1 that have antimicrobial activity.

This study identifies LENT, a lncRNA regulated by MITF, which interacts with DHX36 to modulate translation and suppress autophagy in melanoma cells.

The paper establishes principles of Mg2+ ion binding to RNA using a high-resolution bacterial ribosome structure, revealing new motifs and dehydration processes involved in RNA folding and ribosome biogenesis.

The paper shows that CspA promotes ribosome progression during translation of cold-induced mRNA structures, enhancing translation at low temperatures.
