Detection of Protein–Protein Interactions in Escherichia coli With Single Molecule Sensitivity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This article describes a regulatory circuit in Escherichia coli able to detect protein–protein interactions with exquisite sensitivity. The interaction between two hybrid proteins fused to Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase and its activator calmodulin triggers a potent cyclic AMP signaling cascade.

Natural selection and the evolution of plant functional traits: an appreciation of Geber and Griffen (2003)

open access: yes
© 2024 International Journal of Plant SciencesDiscussion of the synthetic review article by Geber and Griffen (2003) which reviewed studies published between 1985 and 2002 and compiled estimates of natural selection on functional traits of plant species ...

ERK‐Mediated Phosphorylation of YAP Defines a Noncanonical FGF Signaling Mechanism in Stem Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
With a powerful combination of in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro models, the authors highlight a novel FGF‐ERK signaling regulation of YAP at the S128 site in neural crest‐derived stem cells. This study opens exciting new directions in stem cell biology and craniofacial biology, paving the way for potential innovations in the treatment of craniofacial ...

Plant economics spectrum governs leaf nitrogen and phosphorus resorption in subtropical transitional forests

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Background Leaf nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) resorption is a fundamental adaptation strategy for plant nutrient conservation. However, the relative roles that environmental factors and plant functional traits play in regulating N and P resorption ...

Remote Sensing of Grassland Plant Biodiversity and Functional Traits

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
ABSTRACT The use of remotely sensed imagery for the monitoring of both plant biodiversity and functional traits in grassland ecosystems has increased substantially in the last few decades. More recently, uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) have begun to play an increasingly important role, providing repeatable very high‐resolution data ...

Climate Change Threatens Micronutrient Density of European Winter Wheat

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Micronutrients are vital for human health. Wheat is a major staple crop and a significant source of minerals and B‐vitamins. The impact of climate change on their content remains largely unknown. We evaluated micronutrient levels in European winter wheat grown under historical and projected climate conditions. Our findings indicate that future climates

Response of Plant Leaf Traits to Environmental Factors in Climax Communities at Varying Latitudes in Karst Regions

open access: yesPlants
Exploring the changes in plant functional traits and their relationship with the environment in karst climax communities across different latitudes can enhance our understanding of how these communities respond to environmental gradients.

Plant functional traits and the entangled phenotype

open access: yesFunctional Ecology
Abstract Integrated phenotypes consist of multiple traits with enough coordination within and across organs to result in viable individuals, which not only respond to the surrounding environment but also modify it in myriad ways. It is the individual organisms that are the target of ecological sorting and evolutionary selection and the ones that ...

Cold Orthogonal Translation: A Psychrophilic Pyrrolysyl‐tRNA Synthetase Boosts Genetic Code Expansion in E. coli

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Orthogonal translation systems (OTSs) enable site‐specific incorporation of non‐canonical amino acids (ncAAs) and are central to genetic code expansion. Current engineering strategies typically rely on hyperstable aminoacyl tRNA synthetase (aaRS) scaffolds to tolerate destabilizing mutations required for substrate diversification.
