Natural separation of the acyl-CoA ligase reaction results in a non-adenylating enzyme

Functional and structural characterization of PtmA2 reveals that it is an unusual non-adenylating acyl-CoA ligase and part of a system wherein the canonical acyl-CoA ligase reaction is separated into two half-reactions performed by distinct enzymes.

Using data from the CoVPN 3008 study, the authors show that the neutralizing antibody correlate of risk holds in people living with HIV. However, the nAb correlate was weaker and shorter-lived in a vaccine-immunity versus hybrid-immunity population.

Stb15 provides resistance to Septoria tritici blotch in wheat and encodes a G-type lectin receptor-like kinase. The three cloned Stb genes, which are effective against different pathogen isolates, encode diverse receptor-like kinases with extracellular domains potentially involved in sugar binding.

The genes underlying stripe rust host specificity between wheat and barley remain unknown. Here, the authors report that Rps6, Rps7 and Rps8 determine host species specificity in barley at different stages of the pathogen lifecycle and the barley powdery mildew immune receptor Mla8 and Rps7 are the same gene.
