This study identifies transporters and a selectivity determinant in Leu-tRNA synthetase in Bacillus subtilis, revealing how photo-leucine is managed and its incorporation is limited to maintain cellular tolerance.

This study identifies a novel salvage pathway for coenzyme A in Bacillus subtilis, involving the uptake of cysteinopantetheine via a cystine transporter.

This study identifies import and export systems for three-carbon amino acids in B. subtilis, revealing the role of the 'sleeping beauty' family of amino acid exporters in maintaining homeostasis under toxic conditions.
