TL;DR: The complex structure rationalizes how PP-InsPs activate SPX receptor proteins to target PHR family transcription factors and provides a mechanistic framework to engineer crops with improved phosphate use efficiency.
Bacterial MazF/MazE toxin-antitoxin suppresses lytic propagation of arbitrium-containing phages.
Yongqing Cui,Xiang Su,Chen Wang,Han-Xiang Xu,Delei Hu,Jing Wang,Kai Pei,Ming Sun,Tingting Zou +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the arbitrium signal induces the expression of a functionally conserved operon downstream of arbitrium module in SPbeta-like phages, which plays a role in suppressing phage lytic propagation and promoting lysogeny, respectively.

AI-empowered integrative structural characterization of m6A methyltransferase complex
Xu Wei Yan,Kai Pei,Zeyuan Guan,Feiqing Liu,Junjun Yan,Xiaohuan Jin,Qiang Wang,Mengjun Hou,Chun Tang,Ping Yin +9 more
TL;DR: The cryogenic electron microscopy structure of human WTAP – VIRMA and a structure of the quaternary M – M – W – V complex based on AlphaFold2 predictions and structural restraints from intermolecular chemical crosslinking mass spectrometry are modeled.

TL;DR: In this paper, a strain-specific mechanism for the lysis-lysogeny decisions in Bacillus subtilis phi3T phages was proposed, where the arbitrium peptide of the SPbeta phage stabilizes the SPAimR (spAimR) dimer, whereas the phi-3T-derived peptide disassembles the PHAimR dimer into a monomer.
