Excited to share our latest work, spearheaded by @gabmrojas.bsky.social!

GPCRs are central sensors in eukaryotes, but little is known about them in fungi. In Ustilago maydis, we now uncovered a host-dependent GPCR mechanism that promotes fungal infection.

Gabriel nicely explains the full story👇

Evolutionary refinement of mitochondrial and plastid targeting sequences coincides with the late diversification of land plants Abstract. Plastids and mitochondria are key to plant survival and adaptation. The evolutionary progress of land plants (embryophytes) witnessed gene and ge

The evolution of land plants involved a charge-based adaption in the targeting sequences for #mitochondria and #chloroplasts and the origin of their de/phosphorylation.
