Weight-bearing #Arabidopsis🏋️🌱 Brunot-Garau et al. @agustilab.bsky.social reveal an important role for Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase-related kinase CRK5 in regulating PIN3 activity and cellular localisation in response to plant weight increase 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/pcp/... #Auxin #PlantScience
Figure 1e (from Paula Brunot-Garau, Àngela Carrió-Seguí, Javier Agustí, Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase-related kinase CRK5 contributes to the regulation of the PIN3 cellular localization domain upon plant weight increase, Plant and Cell Physiology, Volume 67, Issue 3, March 2026, Pages 232–235, https://doi.org/10.1093/pcp/pcaf168)

Born #OnThisDay in 1922, Esther Lederberg was the first to isolate the lambda phage in 1951. She characterised the lysogenic phase, whereby the phage are able to integrate into the bacterial genome, staying dormant. This discovery made them a model tool of study, leading to many more breakthroughs.

Do you know Daisy Roulland-Dussoix? She is one of the discoverers of restriction enzymes, who’s findings paved the way for the development of recombinant DNA and cloning technologies. Accordingly, the finding was rewarded with a #NobelPrize. But the prize didn’t go to her. 🧵👇
