I'm very happy that this paper is now published in PNAS! Isochorismate-based SA biosynthesis appears to have emerged in the Brassicales after the divergence of C. papaya, likely within the timeframe between the divergence of B. maritima and R. odorata. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Finally out your next summer read: we show that HDC1 attenuates histone acetylation and gene expression through PIF4 ☀️🧬 🌱! Congratulations to all the people involved especially @dtlqfww & @ale_baldini_ cell.com/action/showPdf…
Second, work from @EunyoungChae on autoimmunity mediated by the NLR DM2 and DM3 "Dangerous mix". CryoEM structures show a shift in hexamer stability to be the trigger for DM2. @DiWu96569752 highlights that Alphafold can't predict this structural shift cell.com/molecular-cell…
