BACKGROUND Post-translational modifications play key roles in various biological processes.Protein arginine methyltransferases(PRMTs)transfer the methyl group to specific arginine residues.Both PRMT1 and PRMT6 have em...
In nature,insects concurrently face multiple environmental stressors,a sce-nario likely increasing with climate change.Integrated stress resistance(ISR)thus often improves fitness and could drive invasiveness,but how ...

Chemical modifications expand the composition of RNA molecules from four standard nucleosides to over 160 modified nucleosides,which greatly increase the complexity and utility of RNAs.Transfer RNAs(tRNAs)are the most...
The pattern-recognition receptors(PRRs) recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) derived from various pathogens. This interaction endows the innate immune system with the ability to distinguish effecti...
With the support by the National Natural Science Foundation of China,the research team led by Prof.Yu Feng(于峰)at Hunan Province Key Laboratory of Plant Functional Genomics and Developmental Regulation,Hunan Universi...
An alteration in plant phenotypes assisted by their responses to the environmental stimuli (=tropism) has been fundamental to understand the “plant sensitivity ” that plays a crucial role in plants’ adaptive succes...
ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL5 (HY5), a member of the bZlP transcription factor family, inhibits hypocotyl growth and lateral root development, and promotes pigment accumulation in a light-dependent manner in Arabidopsis. Rec...
Nutrient sensing pathways and their regulation grant cells control over their metabolism and growth in response to changing nutrients. Factors that regulate nutrient sensing can also modulate longevity. Reduced activi...
