High-throughput functional characterization of combinations of transcriptional activators and repressors

Adi X. Mukund et al.

Summary: This study measures the transcriptional activity of 8,400 effector domain combinations and reveals that weak and moderate activation domains synergize to drive strong gene expression, while combining strong activators often results in weaker activation. In contrast, repressor domains combine linearly and produce full gene silencing.

DNA methylation: a historical perspective

Alexandra L. Mattei et al.

Summary: The discovery of 5-methylcytosine in bacteria in 1925 led to a gradual understanding of the biological importance of DNA methylation. While key factors that establish, maintain, and remove DNA methylation are now known, the precise role and interpretation of DNA methylation patterns are still under investigation. The availability of base-resolution methylation maps has greatly enhanced our knowledge in this field.

Identification and expression analyzes of CC-type glutaredoxin in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) under abiotic stress

Yuting Yang et al.

Summary: GRX genes play important roles in plant development and stress responses. In cucumber, CC-type GRX genes show conserved expression patterns in response to various stresses, including salicylic acid, methyl jasmonate, high temperatures, and salt stress. Subcellular localization studies suggest some CsGRX proteins are located in the nucleus. Heterologous expression of CsGRX4 in Arabidopsis results in salt sensitivity, with transgenic lines showing reduced seed germination and root growth under salt stress.

Repressor for hire! The vital roles of TOPLESS-mediated transcriptional repression in plants

Alastair Robert Plant et al.

Summary: Transcriptional corepressors, particularly the TOPLESS (TPL) family, are crucial for regulating gene expression in plant growth and development. TPL proteins are essential for various developmental processes and responses to external challenges. Understanding the evolutionary history and mechanism of action of these plant-specific proteins can provide insights into their significance in plant development.

Glutaredoxins regulate maize inflorescence meristem development via redox control of TGA transcriptional activity

R. S. Yang et al.

Summary: Glutaredoxins are small redox proteins that regulate the activity of transcription factors in maize, controlling inflorescence meristem development. The maize CC-type glutaredoxin MSCA1, along with its paralogues ZmGRX2 and ZmGRX5, modify the redox state and activity of the transcription factor FASCIATED EAR4, ultimately affecting inflorescence development. The study highlights the role of glutaredoxins in meristem development and provides evidence for their redox modification of target proteins in plants.
