Summary We discovered a previously uncharacterized moss‐specific protein, Rosetta NATD‐MAPK 1 (RAK1) in Physcomitrium patens, which uniquely integrates MAP kinase (MAPK)‐dependent signaling with N‐acetyltransferase activity. Through phenotypical and biochemical analyses, we characterized RAK1 function in the regulation of the 2D‐to‐3D growth transition.

ABSTRACT The increasing frequency of concurrent heat and drought stress poses a significant challenge to agricultural productivity, particularly for cool‐season grain legumes, including broad bean (Vicia Faba L.), lupin (Lupinus spp.), lentil (Lens culinaris Medik), chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.), pea (Pisum sativum L ...

ABSTRACT Evidence suggests that the metabolism of inositol and its derivatives may be involved in various biological processes including salt tolerance, but there has been limited understanding. Ectopic expression of Gs5PTase8, an inositol polyphosphate 5‐phosphatase cloned from wild soybean (Glycine soja), significantly enhanced salt tolerance in ...

A Constellation of Fluorescent Biosensors to Illuminate the Galaxy of Protein Kinases
Protein kinases (PKs) are enzymes that catalyze phosphorylation of protein substrates involved in a wide variety of biological signalling pathways. This review describes the different families and mechanisms of action and regulation of protein kinases, together with the different classes of fluorescent biosensors that have been engineered and ...

Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli can utilize proline as a sole carbon or nitrogen source. Proline utilization requires the expression of the two genes in the put operon: the putP gene, which encodes proline permease, and the putA gene, which ...

Semi‐rational engineering yields a thermostable Bacillus simplex formate dehydrogenase variant (Q125F) with a 25‐fold longer half‐life at 60°C and strong resistance to chemo‐inactivation. Molecular dynamics reveal enhanced π–π interactions stabilizing a flexible loop and enabling efficient NADH regeneration for robust biocatalytic detoxification ...
