A theoretical investigation provides an integrated understanding of the complex regulatory network controlling Arabidopsis root hair patterning [PDF]
arXivA complex regulatory network controlling Arabidopsis root hair patterning has been defined using data collected over decades. The network, embedded in the root epidermis, contains positive and negative feedback loops, cell-cell signalling within the epidermal tissue, and receives positional signalling from underlying tissue.

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.The reaction mechanism of 5‐enolpyruvylshikimate‐3‐phosphate synthase from Nicotiana tabacum (NtEPSPS) is elucidated using quantum chemical calculations. The proposed mechanism involves four sequential steps: carbocation intermediate formation, tetrahedral intermediate formation, rate‐limiting C−O bond cleavage, and C=C bond re‐formation.

Arabidopsis roots segmentation based on morphological operations and CRFs [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Arabidopsis thaliana is a plant species widely utilized by scientists to estimate the impact of genetic differences in root morphological features. For this purpose, images of this plant after genetic modifications are taken to study differences in the root architecture.

Interactions of rare earth elements with living organisms and emerging biotechnical applications
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical resources required to achieve net‐zero carbon emission targets and energy security. However, rising demand for REEs coupled with significant extraction and processing challenges and geopolitical risks restricts access to REE resources.

The Actin‐Binding Prolyl‐Isomerase Par17 Sustains Its Substrate Selectivity by Interdomain Allostery
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The human peptidyl‐prolyl‐cis/trans isomerases (PPIases), Parvulin 14 and Parvulin 17, accelerate the cis/trans isomerization of Xaa‐Pro moieties within protein sequences. By modulating the respective binding interfaces of their target proteins, they play a crucial role in determining the fate of their substrates within the cell. Although both

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.A 27 bp deletion in SoIAA2 does not carry a measurable fitness penalty, either in monoculture or in competition with wheat. This suggests this mutation could be relatively common in weed populations. Abstract BACKGROUND A deletion mutation in the degron tail of auxin coreceptor IAA2 was found to confer resistance to the herbicide 2,4‐D in Sisymbrium ...
