Genome-wide Identification and expression analysis of TOR signaling pathway components in apple in response to low nitrogen. [PDF]
Abstract Target of rapamycin (TOR) is an evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine kinase that plays a central role in regulating biological growth, development, and stress responses in eukaryotes. However, the TOR signaling pathway has not been thoroughly studied in apple (Malus domestica).

Multi-omic characterization of consensus molecular subtype 1 (CMS1) colorectal cancer with dampened immune response improves precision medicine. [PDF]
This study highlights the importance of multi‐omic analyses in characterizing colorectal cancers. Indeed, our analysis revealed a rare CMS1 exhibiting dampened immune activation, including reduced PD‐1 expression, moderate CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, and suppressed JAK/STAT pathway.

mTOR modulates CD8+ T cell differentiation in mice with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis
CD8+ T cells are a vital component of the adaptive immune system and important for eliminating intracellular pathogens. Notably, mTOR activity is associated with CD8+ T effector memory (Tem) cell differentiation in fungal infections.

Target of rapamycin signaling in pea embryos is dependent on glutamine but detached from seed storage protein biosynthesis. [PDF]
Summary Target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase is the hub of a eukaryotic master signaling network that integrates nutritional and hormonal signals into cellular activities. Most studies on TOR in plants have focused on seedlings, where TOR is most responsive to light and sucrose.

TcALS knockdown accelerates metamorphosis via insulin signaling in Tribolium castaneum
RNAi silencing of TcALS accelerates larva‐to‐pupa metamorphosis in Tribolium castaneum. Abstract Insect metamorphosis is an evolutionary adaptation precisely regulated by nutritional and hormonal cues. The red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, a major stored‐product pest, serves as an excellent model for studying this process.

Proteomic and Transcriptomic Signatures of Poor Asthma Symptom Control in the U‐BIOPRED Cohort
No stable features were identified as associated with asthma symptom control in transcriptomics or sputum proteomics. Higher TWEAKR/TNFRSF12A and MBL/MBP‐C serum levels increased the odds of uncontrolled symptoms, while higher MK08/MAPK8 and CD5L serum levels decreased the odds, after adjustment for clinical variables.

Fully Tunable Phosphorylation of RPS6A Ensures the Successful Development of Arabidopsis Seedlings
ABSTRACT Light enhances protein translation, enabling young seedlings to rapidly and timely acquire photosynthetic capacities. Sequential phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) was implicated in the light‐enhanced translation; however, the exact phosphorylation sites and the biological relevance of RPS6 multi‐phosphorylation in seedling ...

Complex Regulation of RETINOBLASTOMA‐RELATED's Interactions With E2Fs via Phosphorylation
ABSTRACT Arabidopsis RETINOBLASTOMA‐RELATED (RBR) regulates cell proliferation by interacting with E2F transcription factors and DIMERISATION PARTNER, RB‐LIKE, E2F AND MULTI‐VULVAL CLASS B COMPLEX (DREAM) components. Although CDK‐CYCD phosphorylation is believed to affect RBR's E2F‐binding capacity, the precise phosphorylation events inhibiting RBR's ...

Summary In plants, hypoxia sensing is controlled by the stabilization of group VII ethylene response factors (ERF‐VIIs), which are post‐translationally activated by the mitogen‐activated protein kinases (MAPKs) MPK3 and MPK6. However, how plants fine‐tune the MPK3/MPK6‐mediated phosphorylation of ERF‐VIIs to maintain cellular homeostasis remains ...
