Colonization and extinction lags drive non‐linear responses to warming in mountain plant communities across the Northern Hemisphere

Ecography, EarlyView.
Global warming is changing plant communities due to the arrival of new species from warmer regions and declining abundance of cold‐adapted species.

Selective targeting of cortactin tandem repeat acetylation by human lysine deacetylases

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cortactin function is regulated by acetylation at several lysine residues within its tandem repeat region. Using genetic code expansion to generate cortactin variants containing precisely defined acetylation marks, we show that HDAC6 is the primary enzyme removing these modifications, with SIRT1 and SIRT2 also acting at selected sites but with lower ...
