Interesting read! ERAD machinery controls the conditional turnover of PIN-LIKES in plants #auxin and ER. #plantscience by @kleinevehnlab.bsky.social www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

⏸️🌱 Ever wondered how stressed plants press pause on growth? Then check out the lastest from the lab of our Speaker @kleinevehnlab.bsky.social and collaborators.

11 years ago I did experiments which contribute to the cool story from @kleinevehnlab.bsky.social @seinabnoura.bsky.social about how the ERAD machinery controls the conditional turnover of PIN-LIKES for acclimative growth. Science often requires quite some time: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

1/ 🌱 When plants face stress, they often suppress growth to save resources. In our new Science Advances paper, we reveal how: plants repurpose their ER quality control machinery (ERAD) to regulate auxin compartmentalization and thus growth. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Another STARMORPH paper! Congrats to all. @erc.europa.eu

Thrilled to share our latest story on the ERAD machinery and how it controls the conditional turnover of PIN-LIKES for acclimative growth www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
