We proudly present a new preprint by Leon Pierdzig et al: Wall teichoic acids, glycopolymers specific to Gram-positive bacteria, trigger defense and cell death in Arabidopsis. Cysteine-rich RLKs act as key components in their perception. https://t.co/owvJWnjaVi

That said, we're more than happy with this outcome — it's certainly preferable to the typical endless rounds of additional experiments often demanded during peer review. 😉

Our paper https://t.co/dis2DvxnYZ has finally been accepted and published today in The Plant Journal — congratulations to everyone involved! For those interested, the earlier bioRxiv version includes additional data that, unfortunately, didn't make it into the final publication.

Polarized transport of executive defense gene products to sites of attempted microbial invasion is important for plant pathogen entry control and disease resistance. Here, we provide evidence that...

Our findings underpin that sphingolipid production contributes to the role of the trans-Golgi network as a multi-domain sorting compartment and is required for defense against pathogen invasion.

Here, we provide evidence that INOSITOL PHOSPHORYLCERAMIDE SYNTHASE 2 (IPCS2) is involved in proper delivery of the ATP-binding cassette transporter PEN3 to polarized plasma membrane domains at plant-microbe interaction sites.

To all colleagues who share an interest in sphingolipids, endomembrane trafficking & membrane domain formation, pathogen-induced cell polarization and entry control, here is another potentially interesting preprint:

Our analyses suggest dysregulated mRNA decay & accumulation of transcripts encoding master regulators of xylogenesis. Tissue-specific developmental reprogramming & de novoxylem formation ultimately increase the plant's water storage capacity & resistance to drought stress. (5/5)

We show that TRADE triggers sustained phosphorylation of VARICOSE via co-option of ABA-independent SNF1-Related Protein Kinases 2, which are known to control rapid and transient intracellular signaling for adaptation to osmotic stress and root development. (4/5)

We show that TRADE interacts with the conserved protein VARICOSE (VCS), a scaffold protein of processing (P) bodies, which represent cytosolic subdomains of mRNA turnover & storage formed by liquid-liquid phase separation. (3/5)

We are thrilled by and proud of this recent collaborative effort, in which we identified a single fungal effector protein, TRADE, that induces cell identity switches in dicot plants and thereby enhances plant resilience to concomitant drought stress conditions. (2/5)

Here is a preprint with potential interest to those fascinated by host-microbe interactions, abiotic stress adaptation, xylogenesis, P bodies & mRNA turnover, and extended phenotypes induced by microbial effectors: https://t.co/4omRprWTxg (1/5)

Again, lots of fun at our 15th annual Christmas-“Kegel”-Tournament! Congrats to the winners "The Blotbusters" and a big "thank you" to the organizers! Looking forward to next year's tournament organised by this year's taillight team captain Dr T.T. 😉

Good for you! Teaching a small group of motivated students is certainly rewarding, and you're fortunate not to have to handle the basics with 300 students. However, that foundational work is essential for attracting those motivated students to your course in the first place.
Some profs. downplay course teaching: Over 5 weeks,we gave 10+lectures (30-60 min),worked 8-20+ hrs (incl. weekends) preparing, organized a student seminar with paper presentations,held an exam, & found interactions more rewarding than lecturing to 300 students #AcademicChatter

@SuayibUestuen Really, Suyaib? Did you ever teach large classes? What you do is downplaying those who have to deal with large BSC classes. Thanks
