Ubiquitin chain topology in plant cell signaling: a new facet to an evergreen story (2014)
Journal Article
Walsh, C., & Sadanandom, A. (2014). Ubiquitin chain topology in plant cell signaling: a new facet to an evergreen story. Frontiers in Plant Science, 5, https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2014.00122

Ubiquitin is a peptide modifier able to form polymers of varying length and linkage as part of a powerful signaling system. Perhaps the best-known aspect of this protein's function is as the driver of targeted protein degradation through the Ubiquiti...

Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier protein SUMO enables plants to control growth independently of the phytohormone gibberellin (2014)
Journal Article
Conti, L., Nelis, S., Zhang, C., Woodcock, A., Swarup, R., Galbiati, M., …Sadanandom, A. (2014). Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier protein SUMO enables plants to control growth independently of the phytohormone gibberellin. Developmental Cell, 28(1), 102-110. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.devcel.2013.12.004

Plants survive adverse conditions by modulating their growth in response to a changing environment. Gibberellins (GAs) play a key role in these adaptive responses by stimulating the degradation of growth-repressing DELLA proteins. GA binding to its r...
