Pol ζ, Pol η, Pol ι, Pol κ and Rev1 are specialized DNA polymerases that are able to synthesize DNA across a damaged template. DNA synthesis by such translesion polymerases can be mutagenic due to the miscoding nature of most damaged nucleotides. In fact, many mutational and hypermutational processes in systems ranging from yeast to mammals have been traced to the activity of such polymerases. We show however, that the translesion polymerases are dispensable for repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) in
Neurospora crassa. Additionally, we demonstrate that theupr-1 gene, which encodes the catalytic subunit of Pol ζ, is a highly polymorphic locus in Neurospora. -

CRZ1 transcription factor is involved in cell survival, stress tolerance, and virulence in fungi
SURABHI GUPTA AJEET KUMAR RANJAN TAMULI
The calcineurin-CRZ1 signaling pathway is conserved from yeasts to humans, and is involved in survival, tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress conditions, virulence, and drug resistance. The primary target of calcineurin is Crz1p in yeasts and nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT) in mammals. Calcineurin regulates the expression of various genes involved in cell wall regeneration, ionic homeostasis, virulence, and other cellular processes. Another protein called regulator of calcineurin (RCN) also regulates calcineurin functions. This review discusses the structure, functions, and regulations of CRZ1 in fungi and related organisms. We have also discussed the role of CRZ1 in pathogenicity and virulence in fungi, plants, and animals.

To trigger further research on plant mitochondria, the Journal of Biosciences is bringing out a special issue titled "Plant Mitochondria: Properties and Interactions with Other Organelles".
Plant mitochondria are quite distinct and have unique features, such as a cyanide-insensitive alternate pathway. They also interact with chloroplasts to optimize photosynthetic carbon assimilation.
Submissions are welcome until 30 July 2023. The contributions can be original articles, short communications, reviews, or mini-reviews on any topic related to plant mitochondria.
Authors can submit their articles online at https://www.editorialmanager.com/jbsc/default2.aspx
