Telling Footprints: Exon Junction Complexes Mark Targets of Nonsense- and miRNA-Mediated mRNA Decay
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefRNA degradation mechanisms control the quality and quantity of mRNAs and are crucial for plant cell viability. The major pathways for RNA degradation involve 5’-3’ or 3’-5’ exonucleolytic cleavage by exoribonucleases or the exosome complex, respectively, whereas targets of miRNAs are cleaved…

The Rules of Attachment: REC8 Cohesin Connects Chromatin Architecture and Recombination Machinery in Meiosis
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefDuring cell division, accurate tethering and release of newly replicated sister chromatids is essential for ensuring that each daughter cell receives a full set of chromosomes. To accomplish this, cells use cohesins that act as the “chromosomal glue”. These cohesins are a group of ring-shaped protein…

Review: How mycorrhizal associations drive plant population and community biology ($) (Science)
Plant Science Research WeeklyGreat strides have been made in discovering the molecular players that allow plants and mycorrhizal fungi to establish their symbiosis. Here, Tedersoo et al. look beyond the single plant and address how these associations affect plant communities. Notably, they review the functions of the four evolutionarily…
