Genomic responses to arsenic in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
Arsenic is a ubiquitous contaminant and a toxic metalloid which presents two main redox states in nature: arsenite [AsIII] and arsenate [AsV]. Arsenic resistance in Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 is mediated by the ...

Systematic screen for mutants resistant to TORC1 inhibition in fission yeast reveals genes involved in cellular ageing and growth
(Company of Biologists: OAJ, 2014)
Target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1), which controls growth in response to nutrients, promotes ageing in multiple organisms. The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe emerges as a valuable genetic model system to study ...

A metabolic strategy to enhance long-term survival by Phx1 through stationary phase-specific pyruvate decarboxylases in fission yeast
(Impact Journals, 2014)
In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the stationary phase‐specific transcription factor Phx1 contributes to long‐term survival, stress tolerance, and meiosis. We identified Phx1‐dependent genes through transcriptome ...

A new member of the thioredoxin reductase family from early uxygenic photosynthetic organisms
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Thioredoxins (Trxs) are key components of the redox system that regulates the activity of a spectrum of target proteins through dithiol-disulfide exchange reactions. Trxs are reduced by members of the Trx reductase (TR) ...

Cuf2 Is a Novel Meiosis-Specific Regulatory Factor of Meiosis Maturation
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
Background Meiosis is the specialized form of the cell cycle by which diploid cells produce the haploid gametes required for sexual reproduction. Initiation and progression through meiosis requires that the expression ...

Global transcriptional profiles of the copper responses in the cyanobacterium synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
Copper is an essential element involved in fundamental processes like respiration and photosynthesis. However, it becomes toxic at high concentration, which has forced organisms to control its cellular concentration. We ...

The glutathione/glutaredoxin system is essential for arsenate reduction in Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009)
Arsenic resistance in Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 is mediated by an operon of three genes in which arsC codes for an arsenate reductase with unique characteristics. Here we describe the identification of two additional ...

Altered nuclear tRNA metabolism in La-deleted Schizosaccharomyces pombe is accompanied by a nutritional stress response involving Atf1p and Pcr1p that is suppressible by Xpo-t/Los1p
(American Society for Cell Biology, 2012)
Deletion of the sla1+ gene, which encodes a homologue of the human RNA-binding protein La in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, causes irregularities in tRNA processing, with altered distribution of pre-tRNA intermediates. We show, ...

Back to the future: Transplanting the chloroplast TrxF–FBPase–SBPase redox system to cyanobacteria
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2022)
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) and sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase (SBPase) are two essential activities in the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle that catalyze two irreversible reactions and are key for proper regulation ...
