In my newest first authored manuscript, we show that Conditional stability of HY5 through the ATE N-degron pathway regulates environmental responses in Arabidopsis thaliana".

We reveal a new realm of regulation of HY5 by the ATE N-degron pathways.

Surprisingly: "Conditional stability of HY5 through the ATE N-degron pathway regulates environmental responses in Arabidopsis thaliana".
The shining bounds of N-degron pathway influence expands! @charlene-kunaka.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
