A conserved NLR activation switch governs global transcriptional control of antibiotic biosynthesis in Streptomyces

Max L. Jordan, Hongrui Wang, Natalia M. Vior, Matthew J. Bush, Govind Chandra, Kathryn J. Stratton, Abbas Maqbool, Andrew W. Truman, Susan Schlimpert

This study identifies a conserved NLR activation switch in bacterial AfsR that regulates antibiotic biosynthesis and reveals its evolutionary conservation across Actinomycetota.

Rescuing the bacterial replisome at a nick requires recombinational repair and helicase reloading

Charles Winterhalter, Kathryn J. Stratton, Stepan Fenyk, Heath D. Murray

This study investigates how bacterial replication forks are restarted after encountering single-strand discontinuities, showing that recombinational repair and PriA-dependent mechanisms are essential for replication restart in Bacillus subtilis.
