Re-reading an oldie but goodie. #Ralstonia was one of the first bacterial genomes to be sequenced. This paper is a great introduction to Ralstonia and their genomes. I am not sure I looked at the supplemental material before, but I like it.

Unlocking expanded flagellin perception through rational receptor engineering - Nature Plants
Receptor kinase FLS2 detects the flg22 epitope of bacterial flagellin. Here the authors identify key residues on FLS2’s concave surface that enable expanded perception of flg22 variants, allowing the ...

Our new work lead by Anuphon. Cryo Structure of CARD1 reveals copper in the ecodomain, required for sensing H202. The phenotype of card1 is same as rbohd, suggesting ROS produced by RBOHD is sensed by CARD1.

#2025ISMPMI has been great, so many connections made and re-established. I found this on the railway bridge.

Cajal bodies are membraneless structures with fundamental roles across eukaryotes—but which proteins actually make them up? Using FAPS, Zhou et al. isolated 34 million plant Cajal bodies and profiled their proteome via LC-MS/MS. Curious? Check out our latest preprint! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Proteome profiling of plant Cajal bodies uncovers kingdom-specific components
Insight into the molecular composition of cellular microenvironments is essential for understanding their function. Membraneless organelles (MLO), such as the nuclear Cajal body (CB), play fundamental...

Excited and happy to meet @gittacoaker.bsky.social after quite a few years #2025ISMPMI. Nice discussions about science, as always.

Made it to #2025ISMPMI. It’s great to see my former lab members doing so well! @gangyuplant.bsky.social and the very first postdoc in my lab, Jun Liu.

In Cologne, breakfast with beautiful view. Excited to attend 2025 IS-MPMI. Learn and discuss new science about MPMI, meet old and new friends.
