1/ 🌱 When plants face stress, they often suppress growth to save resources.
In our new Science Advances paper, we reveal how: plants repurpose their ER quality control machinery (ERAD) to regulate auxin compartmentalization and thus growth.

ERAD machinery controls the conditional turnover of PIN-LIKES in plants
Plant ERAD machinery governs the turnover of auxin transporters involved in developmental and stress responses.

How do roots sense phosphate and iron? Discover the PDR2–LPR1 pathway with @cnaumann123.bsky.social (from @ipbhalle.bsky.social), and see how it links nutrient sensing to ER quality control and autophagy. Learn how roots adapt in Pi-poor, Fe-rich soils!

Congratulations! Claudine Kraft @kraftlabfr.bsky.social receives a prestigious ERC Synergy Grant – to find out why some protein #aggregates can be cleared by #autophagy and others not. She and her partners will harness this knowledge to improve autophagy in #ageing & #disease.

#CIBSS brought signalling science to life last month at #ScienceDays2025!
Visitors isolated their own cheek-cell DNA🧬, watched zebrafish embryos develop 🔬, and explored plant genetics & symbiosis 🌱
A glimpse into CIBSS research & the “molecular language of life”.

I am beyond thrilled (like the screaming and jumping type of thrilled) that my SNSF Starting Grant was funded. I will start my own lab @unibe.ch next year, studying succulent anatomy development and if and how this anatomy is required for efficient CAM photosynthesis in different Kalanchoë species 🌱

Beautiful picture looking out of the chemistry building at the University of Freiburg in Freiburg Germany. The old cathedral can be seen in the distance with a backdrop of a blue sky with clouds and distant foothills of the black forrest with fall colors showing through in the trees picture of the Münster at dawn in the Altstadt of Freiburg, Germany, with a still dark sky in the background and moon over the Münster, in the foreground a well-lit flowers stand can be seen preparing for the daily morning market

(1/5) We reveal how root architecture and nutrient leakage shape spatial patterns of microbial colonization, moving beyond traditional models of uniform exudation.
science.org Science Magazine @science.org · Oct 2
Using precise spatial and temporal analysis, researchers in Science provide insight into how bacteria around the root interact both with the plant and with each other.

A confocal microscopy image shows root-colonizing bacteria clustering around an emerging lateral root, where localized glutamine leakage induces spatially confined reporter activity.

Looking for a friend 🙃

Does anyone have a reliable protocol for plasma membrane isolation/enrichment from N. benthamiana leaves, ideally for downstream proteomics. Got one that works?
