Mannose transporters constitute a superfamily (Man-PTS) of the Phosphoenolpyruvate
Carbohydrate Phosphotransferase System (PTS). The membrane complexes are …

Despite the central importance of transcriptional regulation in biology, it has proven difficult
to determine the regulatory mechanisms of individual genes, let alone entire gene networks …

Here we employ a 'systems structural biology'approach to functionally characterize an
unconventional α-glucan metabolic pathway from the food-borne pathogen Listeria …

In B orrelia burgdorferi (B b), the alternative sigma factor RpoS plays a central role during
Bb's adaptation to ticks and mammals. Previous studies have demonstrated that RpoS is not …

Optogenetic tools (OTs) operating in the far‐red and near‐infrared (NIR) region offer
advantages for light‐controlling biological processes in deep tissues and spectral …

In B acillus subtilis separate sets of genes are implicated in the transport and metabolism of
the amino sugars, glucosamine and N‐acetylglucosamine. The genes for use of N …

With numerous industrial applications, Paenibacillus polymyxa has been accepted as the
candidate of the cell factory for many secondary metabolites. However, as the regulatory …

The fusion of single domain antibodies (sdAbs) and alkaline phosphatase (AP) has been
demonstrated to be useful as an immunodiagnostic reagent. In this work, a porcine …

NagC and Mlc, paralogous members of the ROK family of proteins with almost identical helix-
turn-helix DNA binding motifs, specifically regulate genes for transport and utilization of N …

Toxin/antitoxin (TA) systems reduce metabolism under stress; for example, toxin YafQ of the
YafQ/DinJ Escherichia coli TA system reduces growth by cleaving transcripts with in-frame 5' …
