A protein hindered from folding by its parent ribosome
Cassaignau and colleagues use NMR to reveal how a dynamic elongating nascent polypeptide interacts with the ribosome to modulate its folding (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41557-021-00796-x)
Glacial lake outburst floods enhance benthic microbial productivity in perennially ice-covered Lake Untersee (East Antarctica).
Our Communications Earth & Environment study presents evidence that glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) may provide biological stimuli to carbon dioxide-depleted benthic ecosystems in perennially ice-covered Antarctic lakes and perhaps even in icy lakes on early Mars.
