This study identifies 338 previously unannotated small open reading frames in UPEC strain CFT073, with functional evidence for nine intergenic sORFs and potential roles in stress response.

The paper shows how two small proteins, SafA and MgrB, work together with magnesium to control the PhoQ/PhoP signaling system in E. coli, enhancing sensitivity to environmental changes.

This study identifies and characterizes sRNA/asRNA pairs in Methanosarcina mazei, showing their role in stress adaptation through encoded small proteins and antisense regulation.

This paper presents a cell-free system for producing small membrane proteins in vitro, demonstrating their functional activity and utility for downstream studies.

The paper uses Molecular Dynamics simulations and AlphaFold2 to study PhoQ signaling, revealing three conformations and insights into its activation mechanism.
