''Intracellular membrane trafficking – a ubiquitin point of view'' Prof Erika Isono Chair of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry Department of Biology University of Konstanz GERMANY Thursday, March 23, 2023 11:00 Intracellular trafficking is essential for plant growth, development, and environmental responses. Ubiquitin family proteins are small modifier proteins that are conjugated to proteins and lipids and serve as targeting signals in endosomal and autophagosomal trafficking processes. Thus, for the proper regulation of endosomal and autophagic protein degradation, the spatiotemporal regulation of ubiquitylating and deubiquitylating enzymes as well as ubiquitin-binding proteins is essential. Prof Isono her group is interested in the molecular mechanisms of the regulation and recognition of ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins in intracellular trafficking. They have identified deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs) that are important for fine-tuning the ubiquitin- and endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-dependent degradation of plasma membrane proteins. Furthermore, they have found proteins that interact with the ubiquitin-like protein ATG8 on autophagosomes and could be key for the recruitment of the ESCRT machinery to non-endosomal membranes.

Seminar Dr Karel Riha TOMORROW at 11 am in the Schell room

REMINDER Van: "Delphine Verspeel" <delphine.verspeel(a)psb.vib-ugent.be> Aan: "meetings" <meetings(a)psb.vib-ugent.be> Verzonden: Donderdag 2 maart 2023 18:52:02 Onderwerp: You are invited to attend “P-bodies and post-transcriptional gene regulation in plant reproduction and stress response” ON March 16, 2023 You are receiving this e-mail because you subscribed to our seminars announcements and reminders service at [ https://maillist.psb.ugent.be/mailman/listinfo/seminars | https://maillist.psb.ugent.be/mailman/listinfo/seminars ] . '' P-bodies and post-transcriptional gene regulation in plant reproduction and stress response '' Dr Karel Riha CEITEC Masaryk University Brno CZECH REPUBLIC Thursday, March 16, 2023 11:00 Gene expression is a multilayer process that can be regulated at the level of RNA production, processing, transport, translation and RNA stability. Many of these processes are associated with membraneless organelles, dynamic structures formed by multivalent interactions of proteins and nucleic acids that may exhibit properties of liquid-liquid phase condensates. In his presentation Dr Karel Riha will explore the role of P-bodies, cytoplasmic biocondensates sequestering translationally repressed mRNA and RNA decay proteins, in plant germline differentiation and stress response. He will show how dynamic behavior of P-bodies contributes to regulation of meiosis and discuss a broader function of these structures in other plant physiological processes.

You are invited to attend “MAP Kinase Signaling in Cell Polarity - a Lesson from the Plant Embryo” ON January 26, 2023

You are receiving this e-mail because you subscribed to our seminars announcements and reminders service at [ https://maillist.psb.ugent.be/mailman/listinfo/seminars | https://maillist.psb.ugent.be/mailman/listinfo/seminars ] . '' MAP Kinase Signaling in Cell Polarity - a Lesson from the Plant Embryo '' Prof Martin Bayer Center for Plant Molecular Biology (ZMBP) Developmental Genetics University of Tübingen GERMANY Thursday, January 26, 2023 11:00 Breaking symmetry by asymmetric cell divisions is essential for establishing different cell identities in multi-cellular development. Cell-cell signaling by receptor kinase/MAP kinase signaling pathways seems to be a reoccurring mechanism in polarizing plant cells and establishing different cell identities in the daughter cell of asymmetric cell divisions. We are using the early plant embryo as system to study initial events in cell polarization by the ERECTA-YODA signaling pathway – a prototype receptor kinase/MAP kinase signaling pathway. Embryogenesis resembles a linear system of developmental progression with successive asymmetric cell divisions that produce the primary tissue types of the plant seedling and establish the stem cell niches of the shoot and root. By comparing the function of the ERECTA-YODA pathway in the embryo with its role in planar patterning of the leaf epidermis, we identified principal functions of a core pathway and context-specific modifications. We present new data on the impact of polar YODA activation on early embryonic patterning and shed light on the mechanism and evolution of distinct modes of YDA activation in the zygote on a molecular and structural level. We furthermore discuss possible benefits of different modes of YDA activation and their distinct parent-of-origin effects.
