2024/6/24 Hui-Hsien was selected as a concurrent speaker and presented her work at the 100th Plant Biology meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii!!
2024/4/24 Our work has been published in Nature Communications! Congratulations to Hui-Hsien and Lin-Chen!! We reveal that the non-canonical C-term-phosphorylation of eIF2α mediated by SPA kinases plays an important role in light-induced translation during photomorphogenesis. Join us to see the sophisticated mechanism of light-induced translational control.
2024/2/12 Our work has been published in Plant Cell & Environment (Impact factor=7.9)! We reveal that SCE1 and COP1 enzymes, that function in sumoylation and ubiquitination, play contrasting regulatory roles in stress response by mediating the effects of light on ERF1’s protein stability. Join us to learn how ERF1 is regulated under light-dark cycle!
