S‐Adenosylmethionine (SAM) hydrolases counter increased SAM epimerisation in thermophilic archaea
S‐Adenosyl‐l‐methionine (SAM) is a vital enzyme cofactor. Epimerisation at the sulfonium centre of biologically active (SS,SCα)‐SAM is driven by heat, yielding biologically inactive (RS,SCα)‐SAM. Here, two novel archaeal SAM hydrolases from the thermophilic Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and the halophilic Haloferax volcanii are shown to cleave (RS,SCα)‐SAM.

ABSTRACT Heat stress significantly damages crop yield and quality. PLATZ (PLANT A/T‐RICH SEQUENCE‐AND ZINC‐BINDING PROTEIN) transcription factors play pivotal roles in plant growth, development, and environmental stress responses. While the functions of PLATZ members in response to drought and salt stress are well characterised, their roles in heat ...

ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.

ABSTRACT Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), the causative agent of citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), is transmitted by Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri; however, the role of the insect's immune effectors in defending against CLas remains poorly understood. This study reveals that D.

ABSTRACT Plant‐derived secondary metabolites act as regulators of in planta defence. Plant phenylpropanoid metabolic compounds, including final metabolites such as lignin and flavonoids, and a few intermediate metabolites play critical roles in defence.

Fully Tunable Phosphorylation of RPS6A Ensures the Successful Development of Arabidopsis Seedlings
ABSTRACT Light enhances protein translation, enabling young seedlings to rapidly and timely acquire photosynthetic capacities. Sequential phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) was implicated in the light‐enhanced translation; however, the exact phosphorylation sites and the biological relevance of RPS6 multi‐phosphorylation in seedling ...
