Oxygen-dependent proteolysis regulates the stability of angiosperm polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit VERNALIZATION2 (2018)
Journal Article

The polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) regulates epigenetic gene repression in eukaryotes. Mechanisms controlling its developmental specificity and signal-responsiveness are poorly understood. Here, we identify an oxygen-sensitive N-terminal (N-) d... Read More about Oxygen-dependent proteolysis regulates the stability of angiosperm polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit VERNALIZATION2.

A regulatory module controlling GA-mediated endosperm cell expansion is critical for seed germination in Arabidopsis (2018)
Journal Article

A key component of seed germination is the interplay of mechanical forces governing embryo growth and the surrounding restraining endosperm tissue. Endosperm cell separation is therefore thought to play a critical role in the control of this developm...

Genetic interactions between ABA signalling and the Arg/N-end rule pathway during Arabidopsis seedling establishment (2018)
Journal Article

The Arg/N-end rule pathway of ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis has multiple functions throughout plant development, notably in the transition from dormant seed to photoautotrophic seedling. PROTEOLYSIS6 (PRT6), an N-recognin E3 ligase of the Arg/N-end... Read More about Genetic interactions between ABA signalling and the Arg/N-end rule pathway during Arabidopsis seedling establishment.

Distinct branches of the N‐end rule pathway modulate the plant immune response (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 The Authors. New Phytologist © 2018 New Phytologist Trust The N-end rule pathway is a highly conserved constituent of the ubiquitin proteasome system, yet little is known about its biological roles. Here we explored the role of the N-end rule... Read More about Distinct branches of the N‐end rule pathway modulate the plant immune response.

Sumoylation and phosphorylation: hidden and overt links (2018)
Journal Article

Post-translational modifications are essential mediators between stimuli from development or the environment and adaptive transcriptional patterns. Recent data allow a first glimpse at how two modifications, phosphorylation and sumoylation, act inter... Read More about Sumoylation and phosphorylation: hidden and overt links.

Finite indentation of highly curved elastic shells (2018)
Journal Article

Experimentally measuring the elastic properties of thin biological surfaces is non-trivial, particularly when they are curved. One technique that may be used is the indentation of a thin sheet of material by a rigid indenter, whilst measuring the app... Read More about Finite indentation of highly curved elastic shells.
