This study defines the structural basis of MfpD function using phylogenetic, structural, and biophysical approaches, revealing its role in promoting GTP hydrolysis by MfpB through a noncanonical mechanism.

The paper identifies that most MHD-only fungal TFs lack a DNA binding domain due to annotation errors, redefining the CeGAL family as a new TF family with Zn2C6-MHD domains.

The paper investigates the role of X circular code motifs in gene expression regulation, finding correlations with optimal codons and demonstrating their predictive power for gene expression levels.

The paper introduces a computational tool to identify potential ORFs in coronavirus genomes, finding overlapping ORFs in SARS-CoV-2 and related viruses and predicting non-functional ORF3b.
