The Shu Complex Prevents Mutagenesis and Cytotoxicity of Single-Strand Specific Alkylation Lesions

Braulio Bonilla, Alexander J. Brown, Sarah R Hengel…·Kara Anne Bernstein

This study shows the yeast Shu complex prevents mutagenesis from 3meC lesions by binding to them and reducing replication errors.

Short translational ramp determines efficiency of protein synthesis

Manasvi Verma, Junhong Choi, Kyle A. Cottrell…·Sergej Djuranović

The paper shows that a short translational ramp in mRNA's first 5 codons significantly affects protein synthesis efficiency, independent of tRNA abundance or initiation efficiency.

Natural selection on gene-specific codon usage bias is common across eukaryotes

Zhen Peng, Hani Zaher, Yehuda Ben-Shahar

This study shows natural selection on gene-specific codon usage bias is common across eukaryotes and influences spatial and sex-related gene regulation in Drosophila.
