Oxygen sensing in plants: from dynamic hypoxia signalling to the expanding roles of the Cysteine N-degron pathway
Abstract. Recent discoveries have fundamentally transformed the paradigm of plant oxygen sensing. Hypoxia is no longer viewed solely because of environment

Protein synthesis is dynamically responsive to the environment, but how do cells ensure that their protein quality control mechanisms are appropriately scaled to changing translational demand? We address this question in our new study in @natcomms.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...
TOR–NOT4 signalling couples translation to co-translational quality control in plants - Nature Communications
Here, Schwarze et al. reveal how plant cells match protein quality control to changing rates of protein production through a functional link between TOR kinase signalling and NOT4 E3 ubiquitin ligases

Now online! Sensing endoplasmic reticulum redox state by ethylene receptors
Sensing endoplasmic reticulum redox state by ethylene receptors
Ethylene receptors function as ER redox sensors. Redox-dependent disulfide bond dynamics modulate receptor stability and activity, thereby tuning ethylene signaling for environmental adaptation. ER redox sensing may represent an ancestral receptor function that predates substantial ethylene biosynthesis.
