Check out our latest research on stress-induced small proteins @scisignal Congratulations to @vsangeev @premal_shah and all the co-authors 🎉
What are the roles of small proteins in #Ecoli? Using ribosome profiling, a team studies small proteins induced by magnesium starvation and show that one named YoaI activates a two-component system linked to osmotic stress response. @ScarletSam

A single E. coli cell, placed on a dish, will become 70 billion cells in just 12 hours. That’s exponential growth. But a new preprint shows that it's possible to engineer E. coli to grow linearly instead, where only one daughter cell continues dividing and the other stops.
