A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

PCH1 integrates circadian and light-signaling pathways to control photoperiod-responsive growth in Arabidopsis

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Plants react to seasonal change in day length through altering physiology and development. Factors that function to harmonize growth with photoperiod are poorly understood.

Phytochrome A Mediates the Disassembly of Processing Bodies in Far-Red Light

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Phytochromes are red- and far-red light receptors that control the growth and development of plants, enabling them to respond adequately to changing light conditions. It has been shown that halted mRNAs stored in RNA granules called processing bodies are

Refinement of amino‐acid conformation vs. difference density maps in time‐resolved serial femtosecond crystallography data analysis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The dFoCC pipeline starts with observed DED and resting‐state coordinates, which are then used to generate a library of triggered states. Correlation analysis of the calculated DED features of each candidate vs observed DED permits quantitative evaluation of candidate structural quality.

Evidence that phytochrome functions as a protein kinase in plant light signalling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Phytochromes regulate plant responses to environmental light conditions but despite extensive research the initial events in phytochrome signaling remain uncertain. Here, Shin et al.

Supplemental Far-red Light-emitting Diode Light Increases Growth of Foxglove Seedlings Under Sole-source Lighting

open access: yesHortTechnology, 2020
Seedlings may be grown indoors where environmental conditions can be precisely controlled to ensure consistent and reliable production. The optimal spectrum for production under sole-source lighting is currently unknown.

Ecological Adaptation Mechanisms Underlying Successful Plant Reproduction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
During floral induction, various environmental and endogenous signals converge to regulate the florigen protein, which is transported from leaves to the SAM to initiate flowering. Within the SAM, a complex network of receptor kinases and small peptides orchestrates floral development with high spatiotemporal precision.

NCP activates chloroplast transcription by controlling phytochrome-dependent dual nuclear and plastidial switches

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Phytochrome signaling in the nucleus can activate expression of photosynthesis-associated genes in plastids. Here Yang et al. show that NCP is a dual-targeted protein that promotes phytochrome B localization to photobodies in the nucleus while ...

Phytochrome A Regulates Carbon Flux in Dark Grown Tomato Seedlings

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Phytochromes comprise a small family of photoreceptors with which plants gather environmental information that they use to make developmental decisions, from germination to photomorphogenesis to fruit development.

Natural Variation of COLD and CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 Coordinately Fine‐Tunes Cold Tolerance and Tea Quality in Tea Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Multi‐trait genome‐wide association mapping identifies a central hub regulator, COLD AND CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 (CCR1), and its excellent natural allele variation, coordinately enhancing cold tolerance and promoting catechins biosyntheis. CsCCR1 interacts with CsCBF1/3 and is transcriptionally activated by CsLUX and CsKUA1 to promote catechins ...
