A bacterial effector protein prevents MAPK-mediated phosphorylation of SGT1 to suppress plant immunity

A bacterial effector protein prevents MAPK-mediated phosphorylation of SGT1 to suppress plant immunity

Nucleotide-binding area and leucine-rich repeat-containing (NLR) proteins perform as sensors that understand pathogen molecules and activate immunity. In vegetation, the buildup and activation of NLRs is regulated by SUPPRESSOR OF G2 ALLELE OF skp1 (SGT1). In this work, we discovered…

Protein phosphorylation in depolarized synaptosomes: Dissecting primary effects of calcium from synaptic vesicle cycling

Protein phosphorylation in depolarized synaptosomes: Dissecting primary effects of calcium from synaptic vesicle cycling

Synaptic transmission is mediated by the regulated exocytosis of synaptic vesicles. When the presynaptic membrane is depolarized by an incoming motion potential, voltage-gated calcium channels open, ensuing in the inflow of calcium ions that triggers the fusion of synaptic vesicles…
