The paper isolates and characterizes six new E. coli-infecting phages from Kazakhstan, expanding a phage collection and demonstrating phage research in high school education.

This study presents cryo-EM structures of UG10 enzymes and elucidates their enzymatic mechanism involving RT and primase domains, showing their anti-phage activity.

The paper isolates and characterizes five Escherichia coli phages, identifies their defense system sensitivities, and highlights the educational value of phage isolation training.

The paper shows FaRel2, a toxSAS, specifically targets tRNAGly and tRNAThr by recognizing the acceptor stem, with structural differences explaining specificity variations among toxSASs.

This study identifies and characterizes two Escherichia coli TAC systems that mediate antiphage defense by recognizing phage proteins and modifying mRNA to inhibit translation.

The paper shows that SSD1 modulates phenotypes caused by Elongator-dependent tRNA modification loss in yeast, specifically through a polymorphism affecting mRNA binding and translation.

This study identifies New1 as a translation termination factor in yeast by showing it binds the ribosome like eEF3 and affects ribosome queuing at stop codons.
