Recent advances in understanding thermomorphogenesis signaling

open access: yes, 2022
Plants show remarkable phenotypic plasticity and are able to adjust their morphology and development to diverse environmental stimuli. Morphological acclimation responses to elevated ambient temperatures are collectively termed thermomorphogenesis.

Approaching Gold‐Standard Sensitivity in a Portable and Versatile Gold Nanoprisms Thermoplasmonic Platform for Lateral Flow Detection of Biomolecules

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 41, 22 July 2026.
This study presents a plasmonic thermal lateral flow (ThermoLFA) biosensor for ultrasensitive, early detection of biomolecules. By combining plasmonic gold nanoprisms (AuNPrs) and near‐infrared (NIR) laser activation, it enhances signal output beyond conventional LFAs.

The UNC-45 molecular chaperone: Its interactions with myosin and its thermosensing properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In order to perform their biological functions, proteins must fold into a defined structure which is termed the “native state”. In some cases proteins can acquire the native structure spontaneously; however for others additional assistance of molecular ...

Sensing and Filtering Environmental Fluctuations: The Case of Biomolecular Condensates in Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 27, 13 May 2026.
The diversity of plant condensates reflects constraints of sessile organisms to coordinate postembryonic development with environmental adaptation. This review examines how plants employ condensates to integrate temperature, light, redox, and nutrient signals.

Tackling thermosensation with multidimensional phenotyping [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2012
Most if not all animals sense temperature using specialized thermosensory neurons. Genetic studies in simple organisms have been used to identify gene products required for detecting temperature changes or for mediating the effects of temperature on behaviour.

SEMI‐1, A Novel Neuronal Selenium‐Binding Protein 1 Homolog Without Methanethiol Oxidase Activity, Modulates Stress Resistance, Lifespan, and Thermotaxis in C. elegans

open access: yesBioFactors, Volume 52, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
SEMI‐1 is a selenium‐binding protein in C. elegans that, different from its paralog, SEMO‐1, and its human ortholog, SELENBP1, has no enzymatic activity as a methanethiol oxidase. It is expressed in AFD and BAG neurons only and affects nematode thermotaxis, stress resistance, and lifespan.

The molecular and cellular basis of thermosensation in mammals [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2015
Over a decade and a half of intensive study has shown that the Transient Receptor Potential family ion channels TRPV1 and TRPM8 are the primary sensors of heat and cold temperatures in the peripheral nervous system. TRPV homologues and TRPA1 are also implicated, but recent genetic evidence has diminished their significance in thermosensation and ...

Novel hypercapsulation RNA thermosensor variants in Neisseria meningitidis and their association with invasive meningococcal disease: a genetic and phenotypic investigation and molecular epidemiological study

open access: yesThe Lancet Microbe, 2020
Summary: Background: Neisseria meningitidis is the causative agent of invasive meningococcal disease and the polysaccharide capsule is one of its major virulence factors.

An epigenomic threshold hypothesis for integrating dynamic environmental signals into functional models of developmental polyphenisms

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 3050-3060, November 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Interactions between developing embryos and a multitude of environmental factors (e.g. climate, nutrition, social cues, stress and anthropogenic contaminants) underlie adaptive and non‐adaptive developmental plasticity and carry broad implications across ecological ...

Functional assessment of temperature-gated ion-channel activity using a real-time PCR machine

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2009
The functional activity of a number of ion channels is highly sensitive to large changes in temperature. Foremost among these are the thermosensing TRP channels which include cold- (TRPM8, TRPA1), warmth- (TRPV3, TRPV4), and heat-sensing (TRPV1, TRPV2 ...
