Cellular damage triggers mechano-chemical control of cell wall dynamics and patterned cell divisions in plant healing Di Fino et al. analyzed the biomechanical properties of the cell wall in the Arabidopsis root and found that xylem pole pericyclic cell walls are more flexible than outer cell walls. This flexibility ...

Thrilled to share our work lead by Di Fino in great collaboration with @Panosmoschou,@Hamann_lab, @GreenMechanobio, @RichardSmithLab published @Dev_Cell: Developmental Cell www.cell.com/developmenta...

It was great to see Rubén Tenorio Berrio's final PhD defence at PSB/UGent on scRNAseq in the Arabidopsis leaf. It was a privilege to also be a member of his jury. Congratulations Ruben! @psb-vib.bsky.social @deveylderlab.bsky.social

Proud to share our latest work, out in @newphyt.bsky.social, where we use single-cell #microsurgery to investigate the molecular fingerprints of size-dependent sexual maturation in diatoms 🔥 (1/n)

With my imminent hair loss I'm starting to look scaringly alike Jack Nicholson in The Shining.

At the last team building, I tried to axe down the group size, but I couldn't (they're all sooo good!)!

Developmental cues are encoded by the combinatorial phosphorylation of Arabidopsis RETINOBLASTOMA-RELATED protein RBR1 | The EMBO Journal imageimageRETINOBLASTOMA-RELATED (RBR) proteins orchestrate diverse cellular processes through multiple phosphorylation-regulated protein interactions with transcriptional regulators. Here, functional...

Specific phosphorylation codes drive different roles of the plant RBR1 protein and highlight a critical role for its domain interacting with LxCxE motif-holding proteins. Data obtained from a crazy number of phosphovariants! www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Happy to find refuge here! I hope you will enjoy the posts put here by the Ghent Cell Cycle team!
