Metabolic rewiring compensates for the loss of glutamate and aspartate biosynthesis in Bacillus subtilis

M. S. Mardoukhi, J. Rapp, I. Irisarri, K. Gunka, H. Link, J. Marienhagen, J. de Vries, J. Stuelke, F. M. Commichau

This study identifies a non-canonical fumarate-based ammonium assimilation pathway in B. subtilis that compensates for glutamate and aspartate biosynthesis defects.

The control of protein arginine phosphorylation facilitates proteostasis by an AAA+ chaperone protease system

R. Alver, I. Hantke, F. A. Cornejo, K. Gunka, S. Rämisch, N. Moliere, E. Charpentier, K. Turgay

This study identifies a chaperone system involving ClpC, McsB, McsA, and YwlE that regulates protein arginine phosphorylation to facilitate proteostasis through disaggregation, refolding, and selective degradation.

Quasi-essentiality of RNase Y in Bacillus subtilis is caused by its critical role in the control of mRNA homeostasis

M. Benda, S. Woelfel, K. Gunka, S. Klumpp, A. Poehlein, D. Kalalova, H. Sanderova, R. Daniel, L. Krasny, J. Stuelke

This study shows that RNase Y is quasi-essential in Bacillus subtilis due to its role in mRNA homeostasis, as suppressor mutations in RNA polymerase subunits alleviate its deletion effects.
