Bacterial Toxin Exploits Host Membrane Phospholipid as a Receptor for Binding, Entry, and Cytopathogenicity

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Mycoplasma pneumoniae pathogenesis relies on its CARDS toxin, which initiates cell binding and subsequent uptake by exploiting sphingomyelin, a key phospholipid found in the host plasma membrane. Maximal cellular entry and full cytotoxic effects are achieved through a synergistic mechanism that involves interaction with the protein coreceptor annexin ...

Natural Variation in TaFAD8‐D Promoter Enhances Thermotolerance in Wheat Through Fatty Acid and Lipid Remodelling

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat stress (HS) has become an increasing threat to wheat productivity under global warming. However, the genetic loci for thermotolerance and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study, genetic mapping identified a thermotolerance locus, QMpe.cau‐2D, encoding fatty acid desaturase 8 (FAD8), with the transposable

Plant Lipid Droplets and Derived Lipidic Nano‐Assemblies: Structure, Biogenesis and Pharmaceutical Applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lipid droplets (LDs) serve as the primary storage site for neutral lipids in plant cells, with growing evidence supporting many additional biological roles, such as in lipid homeostasis, signalling, trafficking, inflammatory responses and inter‐organelle communication.

TaRIP2 Positively Regulates Wheat Pollen Wall Formation Through MYB80‐Controlled Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Male‐sterile genes and mutants are critical for hybrid seed production in monocotyledonous crops. Lipids are essential structural components of male reproductive organs, such as the anther and pollen. Here, we show that the pollen‐preferential gene TaRIP2 is essential for wheat anther development and pollen formation. RT‐qPCR analysis revealed
