Upregulation of GLRs expression by light in Arabidopsis leaves
BMC Plant Biology, 2022 Background Glutamate receptor-like (GLR) channels are plant homologs of iGluRs, animal ionotropic glutamate receptors which participate in neurotransmission. GLRs mediate plant adaptive processes and photomorphogenesis.

Opto-CD28-REACT: optogenetic co-stimulatory receptor activation on non-engineered human T cells
Frontiers in ImmunologyT-cell activation is a highly regulated process requiring both antigen recognition via the T-cell receptor (TCR) and co-stimulatory signaling, notably through the co-stimulatory receptor CD28. Here, we introduce an optogenetic platform for reversible and

Diterpenoid Diversity across Land Plants
Helvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.Here we bridge the knowledge of diterpene chemical diversity, biosynthesis, and evolution from nonvascular mosses and liverworts to that known from vascular plants. ABSTRACT The diverse array of diterpenoid natural products stems from the ease of manipulating the promiscuity of diterpene cyclases.

Protein control of photochemistry and transient intermediates in phytochromes
Nature Communications, 2022 Phytochromes are photoreceptors responsible for sensing light in plants, fungi and bacteria. Here the authors use computational simulations to reveal the molecular mechanism of photoactivation and characterize the involved reaction intermediates.

Light and gravity signals synergize in modulating plant development
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Tropisms are growth-mediated plant movements that help plants to respond to changes in environmental stimuli. The availability of water and light, as well as the presence of a constant gravity vector, are all environmental stimuli that plants sense and ...

Studies on phytochrome. Some properties of electrophoretically pure phytochrome [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1970 1. Phytochrome was purified from etiolated oat (Avena sativa) seedlings either by gel-filtration chromatography and ion-exchange chromatography or by gel-filtration chromatography and calcium phosphate chromatography. Differences were observed in the spectral properties of phytochrome isolated by the two methods. 2.

Activatable smart contrast agents for photoacoustic imaging
Smart Molecules, EarlyView.This review highlights recent advances in smart activatable photoacoustic imaging (PAI) contrast agents, which dynamically modulate their optical properties in response to external stimuli or microenvironmental cues. It discusses their molecular design, activation mechanisms, biomedical applications, and future prospects for clinically tailored use ...
