FliS, a flagellin protein chaperon of the Lyme disease pathogen Borrelia burgdorferi, controls the cytoplasmic pool of flagellins (FlaB) at the level of translation initiation, secretion, and proteolysis. Deletion of fliS blocks FlaB secretion and translation initiation through a pattern‐switching mechanism of FliS‐FlaB‐FliW/CsrA. Therefore, the mutant

Summary The timing of flowering is a critical agronomic trait governed by an extensive and sophisticated regulatory network. To date, limited understanding of how posttranslational modifications regulate flowering time exists. Here, using Arabidopsis, we resolve a role for the B4 Raf‐like MAPKKK protein kinase RAF24 in regulating flowering time.

AbstractPost-translational modifications (PTMs) and splicing are important regulatory processes for controlling protein function and activity. Despite examples of interplay between alternative splicing and cell signaling in literature, there have been few detailed analyses of the impacts of alternative splicing on PTMs, partly due to difficulties in ...

Mass spectrometry reveals age‐dependent collagen decline in murine atria
Using mass spectrometry, we analyzed the atrial ECM of young (12 weeks) and old (77 weeks) C57BL/6J mice. Results showed a marked decrease in collagen content with age, alongside increases in specific ECM‐related proteins (e.g., MMP9, S100A9, VWA3A).

Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

Summary Plants inevitably encounter a diverse array of constantly changing environmental stresses, and drought stands out as one of the most severe threats to plants. Abscisic acid (ABA) and jasmonic acid (JA) work synergistically to increase plant drought tolerance, but their interplay during drought response remains elusive.

Summary The GAI‐RGA‐and‐SCR (GRAS) family of plant‐specific transcription factors (TFs) is essential for development and stress tolerance, but their role in drought resistance and growth remains unclear. Here, we characterized the SCARECROW‐LIKE (SCL) TF PdbSCL1 from Populus davidiana × P.

Chronic and acute mediators of passive viscoelasticity in human skeletal muscle fibres
Abstract The cellular viscoelastic modulus in skeletal muscle tissue responds dynamically to chronic stressors, such as age and exercise. Passive tissue mechanics can also be sensitive to acute stimuli, such as mechanical loading and/or activation‐induced muscle fatigue.
