Evolution of Plant AIG1-like Proteins: Different Modes of Sequence Divergence and Their Contributions to Functional Diversification

Plants
AIG1 (avrRpt2-induced gene 1)-like proteins are a class of GTPases that play crucial roles in plants, functioning both in chloroplast protein import and disease resistance.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Analysis of the DXS Pan-Gene Family Reveals Evolutionary Conservation and Regulatory Divergence Underpinning Terpenoid Metabolism in Lauraceae

Plants
1-Deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate synthase (DXS) catalyzes the rate-limiting step of the plastidial 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway and governs carbon flux toward terpenoid biosynthesis.

Effect of explant type (leaf, stem) and 2,4-D concentration on callus induction: influence of elicitor type (biotic, abiotic), elicitor concentration and elicitation time on biomass growth rate and costunolide biosynthesis in gazania (Gazania rigens) cell suspension cultures

Bioresources and Bioprocessing, 2022
Gazania rigens (L.) Gaertn. (Asteraceae) is a medicinal plant with high ornamental potential and use in landscaping. The therapeutic potential of sesquiterpene lactones (SLs) as plant natural products for pharmaceutical development has gained extensive ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Mechanistic insights into adventitious root formation in Cinnamomum kanehirae stem cuttings based on phenotypic, physiological, and transcriptomic analyses

BMC Plant Biology
Cinnamomum kanehirae is a species of high economic worth, as it produces abundant aromatic oils for industrial use and its heartwood acts as an optimal substrate for cultivating the medicinal fungus Antrodia cinnamomea.

Genome-wide analysis of the bZIP gene family in Cinnamomum camphora ('Gantong 1') reveals the putative function in anthocyanin biosynthesis

Heliyon
Basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors (TFs) regulate plant development, growth, and secondary metabolism. The formation of red bark of new ornamental cultivar 'Gantong 1' is regulated mainly by anthocyanin anabolism.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Pollination ecology of the invasive tree tobacco Nicotiana glauca: comparisons across native and non-native ranges [PDF]

, 2012
Interactions with pollinators are thought to play a significant role in determining whether plant species become invasive, and ecologically generalised species are predicted to be more likely to invade than more specialised species.
