Open AccessPIF7 is a master regulator of thermomorphogenesis in shade
The size of plant organs is highly responsive to environmental conditions. The plant’s embryonic stem, or hypocotyl, displays phenotypic plasticity, in response to light and temperature. The hypocotyl of shade...

PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORs trigger environmentally responsive chromatin dynamics in plants
The interplay between light receptors and PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORs (PIFs) serves as a regulatory hub that perceives and integrates environmental cues into transcriptional networks of plants1,2. Although oc...

Open AccessGSNOR provides plant tolerance to iron toxicity via preventing iron-dependent nitrosative and oxidative cytotoxicity
Iron (Fe) is essential for life, but in excess can cause oxidative cytotoxicity through the generation of Fe-catalyzed reactive oxygen species. It is yet unknown which genes and mechanisms can provide Fe-toxic...

Open AccessPublisher Correction: Structural and chemical biology of deacetylases for carbohydrates, proteins, small molecules and histones
In the original published version of the article, the protein name for the carbohydrate deacetylase in Geobacillus stearothermophilus was missing from Table 1. The protein name, Axe2 (corresponding to PDB code 3W...

Open AccessStructural and chemical biology of deacetylases for carbohydrates, proteins, small molecules and histones
Deacetylation is the removal of an acetyl group and occurs on a plethora of targets and for a wide range of biological reasons. Several pathogens deacetylate their surface carbohydrates to evade immune respons...

RNA-directed DNA methylation involves co-transcriptional small-RNA-guided slicing of polymerase V transcripts in Arabidopsis
Small RNAs regulate chromatin modifications such as DNA methylation and gene silencing across eukaryotic genomes. In plants, RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) requires 24-nucleotide small interfering RNAs (s...

Open AccessA hydrophobic anchor mechanism defines a deacetylase family that suppresses host response against YopJ effectors
Several Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas species are plant pathogens that infect the model organism Arabidopsis thaliana and important crops such as Brassica. Resistant plants contain the infection by rapid cell death...

Open AccessMechanism of early light signaling by the carboxy-terminal output module of Arabidopsis phytochrome B
Plant phytochromes are thought to transduce light signals by mediating the degradation of phytochrome-interacting transcription factors (PIFs) through the N-terminal photosensory module, while the C-terminal m...

Overexpression of the bacterial tryptophan oxidase RebO affects auxin biosynthesis and Arabidopsis development
Both tryptophan (Trp) and auxin are essential for plant growth and Trp is a precursor for auxin biosynthesis. Concentrations of Trp and auxin need to be tightly controlled to ensure optimal growth and developm...

Local auxin metabolism regulates environment-induced hypocotyl elongation
A hallmark of plants is their adaptability of size and form in response to widely fluctuating environments. The metabolism and redistribution of the phytohormone auxin play pivotal roles in establishing active...

NIK1-mediated translation suppression functions as a plant antiviral immunity mechanism
A new mechanism that plants use to combat begomoviruses—one of the most pathogenic groups of plant viruses, causing severe disease in major crops worldwide—is uncovered: plants inhibit the transcription of gen...

Internalization and vacuolar targeting of the brassinosteroid hormone receptor BRI1 are regulated by ubiquitination
Brassinosteroids are plant steroid hormones that control many aspects of plant growth and development, and are perceived at the cell surface by the plasma membrane-localized receptor kinase BRI1. Here we show ...

Retraction Note: Generation of cell polarity in plants links endocytosis, auxin distribution and cell fate decisions
Our Letter reported that PIN transporters for the plant hormone auxin are initially delivered to the plasma membrane in a non-polar manner and that their polar distribution requires endocytosis. Abolishing PIN...

Open AccessThe plastid-localized pfkB-type carbohydrate kinases FRUCTOKINASE-LIKE 1 and 2 are essential for growth and development of Arabidopsis thaliana
Transcription of plastid-encoded genes requires two different DNA-dependent RNA polymerases, a nuclear-encoded polymerase (NEP) and plastid-encoded polymerase (PEP). Recent studies identified two related pfkB-...
