This study identifies LjMLO4 as a regulator of root development in Lotus japonicus, showing it mediates Ca2+ signalling via LjRALF34 peptides, influencing root growth and lateral root formation.

This study identifies and characterizes a small-molecule inhibitor, A12, of the SOS response in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, showing it binds RecA and LexA and forms disulfide bonds, with potential for anti-SOS compound development.

This study demonstrates that ATP from photosynthesis in Synechocystis can power biocatalytic reactions, enabling sustainable chemical synthesis using whole-cell biocatalysis.

This paper develops a yeast display method to screen macrocyclic peptide libraries, enabling better selection and affinity ranking of ligands against diverse protein targets.

This study reveals the structural basis of RecA-LexA interaction in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, showing how RecA triggers LexA cleavage and inactivation, which is critical for the SOS response.
