Title: Stress-induced pyruvate accumulation contributes to cross protection in a fungus SummaryIt is commonly observed that microorganisms subjected to a mild stress develop tolerance not only to higher doses of the same stress but also to other stresses – a phenomenon called cross protection. The mechanisms for cross protection have not been fully revealed. Here, we report that heat sho...

Title: JMJD1B Demethylates H4R3me2s and H3K9me2 to Facilitate Gene Expression for Development of Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells SUMMARYThe arginine methylation status of histones dynamically changes during many cellular processes, including hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC) development. The arginine methyltransferases and the readers that transduce the histone codes have...

Title: Aggravated gut inflammation in mice lacking the taste signaling protein α-gustducin AbstractInflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a debilitating immune-related condition that affects over 1.4 million Americans. Recent studies indicate that taste receptor signaling is involved in much more than sensing food flavor, and taste receptors have been localized in a variety of extra-oral t...

Title: Active photosynthetic inhibition mediated by MPK3/MPK6 is critical to effector-triggered immunity AbstractExtensive research revealed tremendous details about how plants sense pathogen effectors during effector-triggered immunity (ETI). However, less is known about downstream signaling events. In this report, we demonstrate that prolonged activation of MPK3 and MPK6, two Arabidops...

Title: Two citrate transporters coordinately regulate citrate secretion from rice bean root tip under aluminum stress AbstractAluminum (Al)‐induced organic acid secretion from the root apex is an important Al resistance mechanism. However, it remains unclear how plants fine‐tune root organic acid secretion which can contribute significantly to the loss of fixed carbon from the plant. Her...

Title: Transcription factor WRKY22 promotes aluminum tolerance via activation of OsFRDL4 expression and enhancement of citrate secretion in rice (Oryza sativa) SummaryWhilst WRKY transcription factors are known to be involved in diverse plant responses to biotic stresses, their involvement in abiotic stress tolerance is poorly understood. OsFRDL4, encoding a citrate transporter, has been...

Title: Membrane-lipid associated lncRNA: A new regulator in cancer signaling AbstractLong noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) are one of the emerging regulators which are involved in diverse biological processes. LncRNAs can participate in the regulation of gene expression via various ways in the cytoplasm and the nucleus. The function of the nuclear lncRNAs has been studied a lot. Recent studies have s...
