Switches in cell state downstream of pathogen exposure are driven by a deeply conserved disorder-to-order phase transition in an immunity signaling network.

Structure-based alignment of TRP channels enables comparison of structural changes, ion permeation pathways and ligand-binding sites and reveals over-representation of structures that represent non-conducting states.

Proximity-labeling using engineered biotin ligases TurboID and miniTurbo enables detection of cell-type-specific and low abundance protein complexes and subcellular proteomes in Arabidopsis and other plants.

Cannabidiol is an ultra potent sensitizer for 2-APB responses in rTRPV2 and mTRPV3 channels but not in rTRPV1 through a mechanism that engages channel regions further from the cannabidiol binding site and the pore.
Andrés Jara-Oseguera, Katherine E Huffer, Kenton J Swartz
The TRPV1, TRPV2 and TRPV3 channels are gated on the cytosolic side of the pore, whereas structural changes in the ion selectivity filter associated with activation don't control cation access.
Feng Zhang, Kenton Jon Swartz, Andres Jara-Oseguera
TRPV channels share general mechanisms of activation while exhibiting subtype-specific features along the activation pathway that can determine their apparent sensitivity to stimuli.
Disruption of the intracellular vimentin network upon cellular stress results in enhanced cell surface vimentin on human osteoarthritic chondrocytes and might represent a novel membrane-associated marker of stress-induced premature senescence.

Heterochromatin formation at transposon loci depends on dimerisation of the effector complex that elicits co-transcriptional silencing and this requirement is fulfilled by co-option of the conserved dimerisation hub protein, Cut-up/LC8.
