Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

The Emerging Role of Non-Coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in Plant Growth, Development, and Stress Response Signaling

open access: yesNon-Coding RNA
Plant species utilize a variety of regulatory mechanisms to ensure sustainable productivity. Within this intricate framework, numerous non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play a crucial regulatory role in plant biology, surpassing the essential functions of RNA ...

From cell growth to root growth

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, 1986
The dynamics of root growth is traced back to the growth kinetics of single cells using the concept of the relative elemental rate of elongation (RELEL). In a first step, a formalism for the description of one-dimensional expansion in general is derived with special emphasis on the sigmoid curves which are characteristic for the elongation of single ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Gibberellin function in root growth and development

open access: yes
While early research gave ambiguous results as to the requirement of root growth for the growth hormone gibberellin, there is now clear evidence that gibberellin signalling is necessary for root extension by determining the rate of cell division in the ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Root growth model: a novel approach to numerical function optimization and simulation of plant root system

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents a general optimization model gleaned ideas from root growth behaviors in the soil. The purpose of the study is to investigate a novel biologically inspired methodology for complex system modeling and computation, particularly for ...

Simulation of wheat growth using the 3D root architecture model SPACSYS: validation and sensitivity analysis

open access: yes, 2011
SPACSYS, a model of C and N cycling in the soil–plant–atmosphere continuum that incorporates a detailed three-dimensional root growth sub-model, was tested for its ability to predict the growth and root length density (RLD) distribution of winter wheat ...
