Fine-tuning of MYC2-mediated Botrytis defense response by the LBD40/42-CRL3BPM4 module in tomato (Jialong Zhang, Danhui Dong, Congyang Jia, Hongxin Li, Lun Liu, Jiayi Xu, Hao Cui, Na Zhang, Yang-Dong Guo) doi.org/10.1093/plce... #PlantScience @aspbofficial
Fine-tuning of MYC2-mediated Botrytis defense response by the LBD40/42-CRL3BPM4 module in tomato
Tomato trades off growth and defense by downregulating Botrytis defenses to preserve growth while staying primed for defense.

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 🌱

We asked how can protein complexes diversify without compromising their function and explored this question using the plant #exocyst complex.

Electrostatic changes enabled the diversification of an exocyst subunit via protein complex escape - Nature Plants
The evolutionary diversification of an exocyst subunit was enabled by electrostatic shifts leading to its dissociation from the ancestral complex.
