Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the eukaryotic microbe's autocrine proliferation repressor protein A (AprA), which inhibits cell growth and acts as a chemorepellent.
- Researchers discovered that the receptor for AprA is likely the G protein-coupled receptor GrlH, as cells lacking GrlH show rapid growth and reduced sensitivity to AprA.
- The findings suggest that G protein-coupled receptors play a role in both sensing cell density and mediating movement away from repellant signals, shedding light on eukaryotic cell communication and organization.
BigBertha is a myophage of Bacillus thuringiensis, a widely used biocontrol agent that is active against many insect pests of plants. Here, we present the complete annotated genome of BigBertha. The genome shares 85.
