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

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.

Effects of Substrate-Based Root Restriction on Tomato Growth, Fruit Quality, Yield, and Microbial Communities in a Simplified Automatic Soilless Cultivation System

open access: yesAgronomy
Root restriction is an agronomic technique that influences plant morphology, physiology, and productivity. This study investigates the effects of root restriction on tomato growth, fruit quality, yield, and rhizosphere microbial communities using three ...

Autophagy Restricts Fungal Accommodation in the Roots of Arabidopsis Thaliana

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract Endophytic colonization of Arabidopsis thaliana by the beneficial root endophyte Serendipita indica is characterized by an initial biotrophic phase followed by a restricted host cell death-associated phase.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Tissue-specific DNA methylation in Haemanthus katharinae Bak. (Amaryllidaceae)

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The level of DNA methylation was compared in root meristem, adult leaf and endosperm of monocotyledonous species, Haemanthus katharinae, with the use of HPLC, restriction analysis, Southern blot hybridization and in situ nick-translation driven by ...

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 Restriction for Growth Control and Precocity in Starfruit (A Verrhoa Carambola L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Starfruit (Averrhoa carambola) is an important fruit grown commercially in Malaysia. High rainfall and plentiful sunshine of the humid tropic usually promotes abundant shoot growth. Tree height increment is also tremendously fast.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
