A new perspective on the evolution of metalloproteins. In his latest paper dr Kevin Waldron presents his research concerning the evolution of metal ion binding by superoxide dismutases. The results show that the dismutases display high evolutionary flexibility in their ion preferences, which has allowed them to switch their preferences between iron and manganese as (…)

A new paper entitled “Strand specificity of ribonucleotide excision repair in _Escherichia coli_” was published in Nucleic Acids Research. In this paper the authors demonstrate that in _Escherichia coli_ the repair of ribonucleotides inserted by DNA polymerases during DNA replication and trans-lesion synthesis (TLS) differs between both DNA strands. On the leading DNA strand, ribonucleotides (…)
