This paper identifies gp48, a mycobacteriophage protein that inhibits the host enzyme Mpg, essential for cell wall biosynthesis, by disrupting its dimer formation.

This study shows that a small molecule Pfn1 inhibitor reduces tumor angiogenesis in renal cell carcinoma by targeting endothelial cell Pfn1.

The paper shows that yeast cells lacking Met15 can assimilate inorganic sulfur via Yll058w, but require exogenous methionine or hydrogen sulfide chelators to grow, challenging the traditional view of MET15 as essential for sulfur assimilation.
