Coming out in @NaturePlants today (rdcu.be/eBScJ): The mechanism for essential amino acid transport across the chloroplast envelope. We identified RETICULATA1 (RE1) as a new type of transport protein. #PlantScience #AminoAcidTransport #Chloroplasts. @franzikuhnert.bsky.social @weberlab.bsky.social

📅New #PlantSciEvents Event Added: Gordon Research Conference on Chloroplast Biotechnology; Engineering Plastids for Better Crops and New Functions🌱 👉https://eventform.plantae.org/plantae.calendar/detail/1367/1743368400000 #PlantScience

Today, the program of the famous conference ▶️Molecular Biology of Plants #MBP2025 is online. It will take place 📍 in Hennef, Germany 📅 10-13 February 2025 Including information on talks, posters, sporting resources, and venue www.pflanzen-molekularbiologie.de/en/conferenc...

On February 6, the EU Parliament will vote on whether to support CRISPR and other NGTs. The scientific community agrees: Yes to CRISPR and #NGTs. AG Weber (together with @ceplas.bsky.social) is also campaigning for the European Parliament to support NGTs. @weplanetint.bsky.social #givegenesachance
