Concurrent stimulation of diflufenican biodegradation and changes in the active microbiome in gravel revealed by Total RNA

This study shows that adding alfalfa to urban gravel stimulates diflufenican degradation and increases microbial activity, particularly in bacteria and fungi.

Regulated Degradation of the Inner Nuclear Membrane Protein SUN2 Maintains Nuclear Envelope Architecture and Function

This study identifies a degradation mechanism for SUN2, an inner nuclear membrane protein, showing that its regulated turnover is essential for maintaining nuclear envelope structure and function.

Proteome remodeling in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis PknG knockout: molecular evidence for the role of this kinase in cell envelope biogenesis and hypoxia response.

This study uses proteomics to show that PknG knockout in M. tuberculosis alters the proteome, affecting cell envelope biosynthesis and hypoxia response.

The derlin Dfm1 promotes retrotranslocation of folded protein domains from the endoplasmic reticulum

The paper identifies Dfm1 as essential for retrotranslocating proteins with folded luminal domains from the ER, revealing its interaction with ubiquitin factors and the Cdc48 complex.

First description of a herpesvirus infection in genus Lepus

The paper describes the first identification of a herpesvirus in Iberian hares, which circulates asymptotically and is phylogenetically related to bat and rodent herpesviruses.
