We are very excited to share a new resource from our team: spatial subcellular proteome maps in plants! We developed an MS-based method that registers localizations of about 8000 proteins in Arabidopsis roots in a single experiment.

Excellent editor's summary from @maddyseale.bsky.social on research showing how ribosome methylation affects vascular cell fate in xylem tissue - whether cells become water conducting vessels or parenchyma cells for storage.

The mechanical properties of Arabidopsis thaliana roots adapt dynamically during development and to stress
Brillouin microscopy reveals in vivo dynamics of mechanical properties during plant development and response to stress.
Our work now on its final version. We mapped the mechanical properties of roots at tissue and single cell levels using Brillouin microscopy and molecular rotors. Additional mutants and stress measurements from what we previously showed in the preprint are included.

It was such a pleasure to have Edwige Moyroud from @slcuplants.bsky.social visiting @umeaplantsciencecentre.se
She acted as external evaluator for @absolutemaverick.bsky.social Hemamshu Ratnakaram half time seminar and we could enjoyed her fascinating research overview. Thanks Edwige!
