Mass Spectrometry Imaging‐Assisted Discovery of Gallotannin Biosynthetic Genes in the Root of Paeonia suffruticosa

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated approach combining mass spectrometry imaging, transcriptomics, and phylogenetic analysis facilitated the efficient identification of genes involved in gallotannin biosynthesis in Paeonia suffruticosa. As a result, a key UGT and several SCPL acyltransferases responsible for biosynthesizing pentagalloylglucose were successfully identified ...

Daytime temperature is sensed by phytochrome B in Arabidopsis through a transcriptional activator HEMERA

Nature Communications, 2019
The phyB photoreceptor senses nighttime temperature in Arabidopsis plants cultivated in short-day photoperiods. Here the authors show that phyB can also promote thermomorphogenesis during constant light or the daytime, and acts via a HEMERA-dependent ...

Discovery of H2 Receptor Antagonists as Colistin Enhancers by Targeting Acid Stress Response

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies YqgB as a key target for restoring colistin susceptibility in mcr‐positive pathogens under acidic conditions by remodeling phospholipid composition and reducing LPS modification. Deep learning‐based screening reveals H2 receptor antagonists as novel colistin adjuvants. Further investigations indicate that ranitidine and famotidine

Orthogonal regulation of phytochrome B abundance by stress-specific plastidial retrograde signaling metabolite

Nature Communications, 2019
MEcPP is an evolutionarily conserved metabolite that acts as a plastid-to-nucleus retrograde signal to regulate adaptive responses to fluctuating light. Here the authors show that MEcPP regulates seedling development by stabilizing the phyB photoreceptor

MicroRNA156 conditions auxin sensitivity to enable growth plasticity in response to environmental changes in Arabidopsis

Nature Communications, 2023
Plants respond to light and temperature changes via the photoreceptor phytochrome B and the phytohormone auxin. Here the authors reveal microRNA156 as a previously uncharacterized developmental signal that gates environmentally regulated plant growth by ...

Gut Mycobiota‐Associated Tryptophan Catabolites Protect Against Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that the intestinal microbiota participates in the progression of metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) through microbiota‐host interaction. However, the beneficial role of commensal mycobiota in MASLD progression remains poorly understood.

On the Origins of Toughness in Corymbia calophylla (Marri Tree) Nuts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We uncover the natural toughening mechanisms of the marri nut, including fiber pullout, crack deflection, and a viscoelastic matrix, which enable exceptional energy absorption and ductility comparable to Teflon, with an elastic modulus similar to acrylic.

Increasing ambient temperature progressively disassembles Arabidopsis phytochrome B from individual photobodies with distinct thermostabilities

Nature Communications, 2020
Temperature modulates plant development and environmental responses. Here, the authors show that increasing ambient temperature reduces the number of sub-nuclear photobodies in Arabidopsis by promoting selective disassembly of thermo-unstable photobodies
