PIN auxin transporters facilitate polar transport of synthetic phenoxyacetic acid herbicides | Plantae

Synthetic herbicides are widely used in agriculture to control weeds, often by targeting the physiological pathways regulated by auxins, plant hormones that induce root growth and development.

Is basic science undervalued? David Glanzman (UCLA) talks about the decline of 'middle class' labs and that "there is no empirical evidence that the translational approach accomplishes this [cures] any better than the traditional one. Claims to the contrary at this point are mere propaganda."

By now it’s clear that alphafold models don’t always work for e.g., small molecule docking. In one study, no difference was observed between success w/ docking into pockets of DL-generated models and those of homology models, despite major improvements in RMSD of the former. doi.org/10.7554/elif...
