Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2007 This review attempts to provide an overview of the current knowledge of TRP proteins and their possible role in bladder function and disease. At present, there are 28 transient receptor potential (TRP) channels (subdivided into 7 categories or families) which are involved in a number of functions [G.A.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A cytokinin pathway transcription factor, RR2b, was artificially selected during soybean domestication and improvement based on its differential transcriptional activity, which correlates with ATT repeat polymorphisms in its promoter. RR2b balances yield and defense by fine‐tuning its expression level and offers a promising target for decoupling trade ...

Subversion of Atypical Mucin Traps by a Spore‐Coat Effector Blocks Cellular Immunity in Drosophila
Advanced Science, EarlyView.While the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium robertsii can evade insect humoral immunity, its subversion of cellular defenses is still elusive. We identify Eac1 as a spore‐coat protein essential for infecting drosophilids by targeting atypical mucins (Sgf1 and Sgf2), which can entrap spores in a gel matrix and thereby facilitate hemocyte encapsulation.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.While cysteine is widely employed as a nucleophilic handle for peptide modification, the electrophilicity of the oxidized form, cystine, is rarely exploited. This study describes a mild, photochemical coupling of sulfinate salts with peptide disulfides.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Our findings establish SUMOylation as a key post‐translational control layer in auxin signaling. We show that SIZ1‐mediated SUMOylation of LBD29 promotes its association with ARF7, stabilizing a transcriptional hub that governs lateral root development.

Multicomponent Stapling of Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Enables Receptor‐Guided PROTAC Delivery
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.We report a stapled glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) analogue created via multicomponent tryptophan‐mediated Petasis reaction (TMPR). This strategy yields a stabilised peptide with superior helicity and improved potency. Conjugation to a bromodomain‐containing protein 4 (BRD4) degrader creates the first GLP‐1‐guided targeted protein degrader (PROTAC ...

Herbicide Metabolic Resistance in Poaceae Plants via the GA‐GID1/DELLA‐DOF2‐P450s Module
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Plant hormone signaling modulates herbicide resistance in Echinochloa crus‐galli. The GA–DELLA–DOF2 cascade directly activates P450 detoxification genes in two Poaceae species, uncovering a core mechanism of metabolic herbicide resistance. ABSTRACT Barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus‐galli) is one of the world's most important weeds, and the evolution of ...

Tryptophan As a New Member of RNA‐Induced Silencing Complexes Prevents Colon Cancer Liver Metastasis
Advanced ScienceEssential amino acids (EAA) and microRNAs (miRs) control biological activity of a cell. Whether EAA regulates the activity of miR has never been demonstrated. Here, as proof‐of‐concept, a tryptophan (Trp, an EAA) complex containing Argonaute 2 (Ago2) and

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Computational and structure‐guided arginine scanning rewires the DNA‐binding interface of APE1 to create APE1‐Evo, a hyperactive yet specific AP endonuclease. Integrated into the NAPTUNE‐V2.0 cascade, APE1‐Evo enables amplification‐free, multiplex viral RNA sensing for dengue virus and influenza A/B, highlighting a general strategy for engineering ...
