How does a geminivirus replicate its genome using a pick&mix strategy with host proteins? 🦠🦠🌱🧬 Our new preprint identifies plant proteins repurposed by geminiviruses to carry out rolling-circle replication. Congrats @chaonan123.bsky.social , who spearheaded this work! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

In our recent review, we explore how the spliceosome is targeted by effectors from diverse plant-interacting organisms—and how these effectors can serve as powerful molecular probes to uncover the mechanisms of splicing regulation in plants. @geminiteamlab.bsky.social #PlantScience #RNA #Splicing

New insights into microbial manipulation of the plant spliceosome
Abstract. Alternative splicing (AS) has emerged as a regulatory layer in plant adaptation to the environment. In particular, biotic stresses trigger a dras

RNA splicing generates a functionally specialized Rep protein isoform in geminiviruses — enabling timely control of the viral cycle. Strikingly, similar strategies might have evolved in DNA viruses infecting different kingdoms: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Spearheaded by @delphinem-p.bsky.social!

It was so nice to visit @mpi-mp-potsdam.bsky.social! Lots of #virus and #RNA discussions. Thanks @incavirus.bsky.social for the invitation!

Splicing was discovered in adenoviruses, but was thought to be only anecdotal in plant viruses... We may need to revisit plant viral transcriptomes and proteomes!

How do plant viruses cause symptoms? Are these developmental alterations functionally relevant? Man Gao, Enmanuel, et al. found that TYLCV does so through a host-mimicking domain in its C4 protein, co-opting a plant protein family - to attract the insect vector! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
