Preprint alert, please share!! With our new study, we engineered an orthogonal hypoxia-responsive system in plants inspired by mammalian HIF protein degradation. We demonstrated that this system could control protein stability and activity, enabling modulation of Oxygen sensing outputs. Here's how:

I am looking for a speaker for the "Plant Gene Expression Analysis" workshop at the PAG32 conference in January. There are no funds to support speakers unfortunately. Other confirmed speakers are @tralee-sci.bsky.social, Colleen Doherty and Ronan O'Malley. Please message me if you are interested!

It was only a matter of time before hypoxia and biotic crosstalk was discovered, somewhat converging on ERF-VII regulation. Outstanding Qs: how do hypoxic conditions alter bacterial interactions with plants? Obligate aerobes vs facultative anaerobes? www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
