Subcellular localization of monoglucosyldiacylglycerol synthase in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 and its unique regulation by lipid environment by Selão, Tiago Toscano, Zhang, Lifang, Ariöz, Candan, Wieslander, Åke, Norling, Birgitta

“…Global regulation of lipid synthesis in Synechocystis and, more specifically, the influence of the lipid environment on MgdA activity have not yet been fully elucidated. Therefore, we purified membrane subfractions from this organism and assayed MGS activity in vitro, with and without different lipids and other potential effectors. …”

Programmed Allee effect in bacteria causes a tradeoff between population spread and survival by Smith, Robert, Tan, Cheemeng, Srimani, Jaydeep K., Pai, Anand, Riccione, Katherine A., Song, Hao, You, Lingchong

“…Dispersal is necessary for spread into new habitats, but it has also been shown to inhibit spread. Theoretical studies have suggested that the presence of a strong Allee effect may account for these counterintuitive observations. …”

Viroporin activity of the foot-and-mouth disease virus non-structural 2B protein by Ao, Da, Guo, Hui-Chen, Sun, Shi-Qi, Sun, De-Hui, Fung, To Sing, Wei, Yan-Quan, Han, Shi-Chong, Yao, Xue-Ping, Cao, Sui-Zhong, Liu, Ding Xiang, Liu, Xiang-Tao

“…Among the Picornaviridae family of viruses, the 2B protein encoded by enteroviruses is well understood, whereas the viroporin activity of the 2B protein encoded by the foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) has not yet been described. An analysis of the FMDV 2B protein domains by computer-aided programs conducted in this study revealed that this protein may contain two transmembrane regions. …”
