Abstract. Proximity labeling (PL) proteomics, primarily powered by engineered biotin ligases such as BioID and TurboID, has emerged as a transformative app

Hormone catabolism is emerging as an active layer of plant signalling, with strigolactone and salicylic acid pathways showing how terminal protein regions

Structural biology is undergoing a transformative era driven by advances in artificial intelligence (AI)-based protein structure prediction and cryo-e…

Salicylic acid, the active molecule in aspirin and some acne medications, is a hormone in plants that is essential for immunity, but it’s a double-edged sword: Too much can cause autoimmunity and stun...

The ubiquitin system is a central regulator of plant immunity, with E3 ligases conferring substrate specificity across diverse signaling pathways. This review synthesizes structural and mechanistic i...

The Academic Senate and Federation have announced their top awards, comprising 15 academics across various disciplines throughout the university.The awards cite the impact these academics have had on ...

Plant hormones are essential small molecules that regulate plant growth, development, and systemic responses to environmental stimuli. These processes are mediated by complex signaling networks involv...

Plants rely on rapid proteome remodeling to withstand fluctuating environmental conditions, yet how the ubiquitin system dynamically coordinates these multilayered responses remains unclear. Here we d...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans...

Proteasomal degradation of cellular proteins generate defence peptides constitutively and in response to bacterial infection. Such peptides might provide a source of natural antibiotics that...

Strigolactones (SLs) are methylbutenolide molecules derived from β-carotene through an intermediate carlactonoic acid (CLA). Canonical SLs act as signals to microbes and plants, whereas noncanonical S...
