Structural basis for reduced ribosomal A-site fidelity in response to P-site codon-anticodon mismatches

H. A. Nguyen, C. E. Fagan, E. D. Hoffer, T. Maehigashi, C. M. Dunham

The paper presents crystal structures showing how a P-site codon-anticodon mismatch reduces A-site fidelity, allowing for quality control of protein synthesis.

Molecular mechanism regulating transcriptional control of the hig toxin-antitoxin locus of antibiotic-resistance plasmid Rts1 from Proteus vulgaris

I. J. Pavelich, M. A. Schureck, D. Wang, E. D. Hoffer, M. Boamah, N. Onouha, S. J. Miles, C. D. Okafor, C. M. Dunham

This paper investigates the regulation of the HigBHigA toxin-antitoxin pair from plasmid Rts1 in Proteus vulgaris, finding it functions as an on/off transcriptional switch rather than a molecular rheostat.

Structural insights into mRNA reading frame regulation by tRNA modification and slippery codon-anticodon pairing

E. D. Hoffer, S. Hong, T. Maehigashi, R. L. Gonzalez, P. Whitford, C. M. Dunham

The paper reports ribosome structures with tRNAPro bound to codons, showing how m1G37 modification prevents frameshifting by stabilizing tRNA interactions.

Functionally critical residues in the aminoglycoside resistance-associated methyltransferase RmtC play distinct roles in 30S substrate recognition

M. Nosrati, D. Dey, A. Mehrani, S. E. Strassler, N. Zelinskaya, E. D. Hoffer, S. M. Stagg, C. M. Dunham, G. L. Conn

This study identifies functionally critical residues in RmtC that distinguish between 30S-binding affinity and 16S rRNA modification through structural and biochemical analysis.
