TaWRKY10 transcription factor is a novel Jasmonic Acid signalling regulator involved in immunity against Septoria tritici blotch disease in wheat (2021)
Journal Article
Campanaro, A., Srivastava, A., Zhang, C., Lee, J., Millyard, L., Gatehouse, A., Byrne, E., & Sadanandom, A. (2021). TaWRKY10 transcription factor is a novel Jasmonic Acid signalling regulator involved in immunity against Septoria tritici blotch disease in wheat. Plant Pathology, 70(6), 1397-1408. https://doi.org/10.1111/ppa.13388

Septoria tritici blotch (STB), caused by the fungus Zymoseptoria tritici, is currently the main threat to worldwide wheat production in temperate climates. Understanding the genetic mechanisms that underpin the Z. tritici–wheat interaction will be cr...

SUMO enables substrate selectivity by mitogen-activated protein kinases to regulate immunity in plants (2021)
Journal Article
Verma, V., Srivastava, A. K., Gough, C., Campanaro, A., Srivastava, M., Morrell, R., Joyce, J., Bailey, M., Zhang, C., Krysan, P. J., & Sadanandom, A. (2021). SUMO enables substrate selectivity by mitogen-activated protein kinases to regulate immunity in plants. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 118(10), Article e2021351118. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2021351118

The versatility of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in translating exogenous and endogenous stimuli into appropriate cellular responses depends on its substrate specificity. In animals, several mechanisms have been proposed about how MAPKs m... Read More about SUMO enables substrate selectivity by mitogen-activated protein kinases to regulate immunity in plants.

SUMO Conjugation to BZR1 Enables Brassinosteroid Signaling to Integrate Environmental Cues to Shape Plant Growth (2020)
Journal Article
Srivastava, M., Srivastava, A. K., Orosa-Puente, B., Campanaro, A., Zhang, C., & Sadanandom, A. (2020). SUMO Conjugation to BZR1 Enables Brassinosteroid Signaling to Integrate Environmental Cues to Shape Plant Growth. Current Biology, 30(8), 1423.e3-1423.e3. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2020.01.089

Brassinosteroids (BRs) play crucial roles in plant development, but little is known of mechanisms that integrate environmental cues into BR signaling. Conjugation to the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is emerging as an important mechanism to tr...

SUMO conjugation to the pattern recognition receptor FLS2 triggers intracellular signalling in plant innate immunity (2018)
Journal Article
Orosa, B., Yates, G., Verma, V., Srivastava, A. K., Srivastava, M., Campanaro, A., De Vega, D., Fernandes, A., Zhang, C., Lee, J., Bennett, M. J., & Sadanandom, A. (2018). SUMO conjugation to the pattern recognition receptor FLS2 triggers intracellular signalling in plant innate immunity. Nature Communications, 9(1), Article 5185. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-07696-8

Detection of conserved microbial patterns by host cell surface pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) activates innate immunity. The FLAGELLIN-SENSITIVE 2 (FLS2) receptor perceives bacterial flagellin and recruits another PRR, BAK1 and the cytoplasmic-...
