An Effector TaCRVP From Tuta Absoluta Oral Secretion Impairs H2O2‐Mediated Plant Defense by Targeting Tomato SlCAT2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Tuta absoluta salivary effector TaCRVP subverts tomato immunity by hijacking host catalase SlCAT2. Through a sophisticated dual mechanism, TaCRVP simultaneously promotes SlCAT2 tetramerization for activation and blocks its SlAdBiL‐mediated degradation for stabilization.

AS‐TLC‐Based High‐Throughput Screening Integrated with CuAAC Optimization Strategy Facilitates the Rapid Discovery of YTHDC1 Inhibitor

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed Affinity Selection Thin‐Layer Chromatography (AS‐TLC) as a method for high‐throughput screening (HTS) of compound mixtures. Furthermore, we integrated activity assays with AS‐TLC and identified a YTH domain‐containing protein 1 (YTHDC1) inhibitor. Building on this hit, we applied copper(I)‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) click
