Super cool! Again, how p-bodies control gene expression in cell fate transitions
1/ Excited to share our new study with @brumbaugh-lab.bsky.social, out in @natbiotech.nature.com! P-bodies selectively sequester RNAs encoding cell fate regulators, often from the preceding developmental stage. Releasing these RNAs can drive changes in cell identity. 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Between 2005 and 2006, the GMI’s six founding research groups relocated to the new building at the Vienna BioCenter. In 2006, two new research groups led by Thomas Greb and Hisashi Tamaru also joined the GMI.

ATG8ylation of vacuolar membrane protects plants against cell wall damage - Nature Plants
ATG8ylation of the tonoplast, triggered by cell wall damage, acts as a vital vacuolar quality control mechanism that safeguards vacuolar integrity and ensures cell survival under stress.
