The study identifies the RNA‑binding protein AtG3BP1 as a phosphorylation target of MAPKs MPK3, MPK4, and MPK6 at Ser257 in Arabidopsis thaliana and shows that this modification promotes susceptibility to bacterial pathogens, suppresses ROS accumulation and salicylic acid biosynthesis, and maintains stomatal opening. Phospho‑mimic and phospho‑dead mutants reveal that phosphorylation stabilizes AtG3BP1 by preventing proteasomal degradation, highlighting a novel post‑translational control layer in plant immunity.

The study identifies the serine/threonine protein kinase CIPK14/SNRK3.15 as a regulator of sulfate‑deficiency responses in Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings, with mutants showing diminished early adaptive and later salvage responses under sulfur starvation. While snrk3.15 mutants exhibit no obvious phenotype under sufficient sulfur, the work provides a novel proteomic dataset comparing wild‑type and mutant seedlings under sulfur limitation.

The study identifies a moss‑specific fusion protein, Rosetta NATD‑MAPK 1 (RAK1), that combines a MAPK domain with an N‑acetyltransferase and demonstrates that its acetyltransferase activity is enhanced upon MAPK activation. Knockout of RAK1 impairs the 2D‑to‑3D developmental transition in Physcomitrium patens, and mass‑spectrometry reveals associated changes in acetylation and phosphorylation linked to metabolic reprogramming.

The study shows that the SnRK1 catalytic subunit KIN10 directs tissue-specific growth‑defense programs in Arabidopsis thaliana by reshaping transcriptomes. kin10 knockout mutants exhibit altered root transcription, reduced root growth, and weakened defense against Pseudomonas syringae, whereas KIN10 overexpression activates shoot defense pathways, increasing ROS and salicylic acid signaling at the cost of growth.

The study examined how white lupin (Lupinus albus) cotyledons mobilize nitrogen and minerals during early seedling growth under nitrogen‑deficient conditions, revealing that 60 % of stored proteins degrade within eight days and are redirected to support development. Proteomic analyses showed dynamic shifts in nutrient transport, amino acid metabolism, and stress responses, and premature cotyledon removal markedly impaired growth, highlighting the cotyledon's essential role in nutrient supply and transient photosynthetic activity.

The study characterizes the protein composition of extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, revealing enrichment of transmembrane proteins and RxLR effectors, while EV-independent secretions are dominated by cell wall–modifying enzymes. Two MARVEL‑domain proteins, PiMDP1 and PiMDP2, are identified as EV-associated markers that co‑localize with RxLR effectors, with PiMDP2 specifically accumulating at the haustorial interface during early infection, suggesting a role in effector delivery.

The study reveals that a conserved serine adjacent to the catalytic glutamate in TIR domains is essential for NAD+‑cleaving activity, and that phosphorylation of this serine by plant calcium‑dependent protein kinases (CPKs) or mammalian kinases (CAMK2D, TBK1) inhibits the activity, thereby preventing growth repression and cell death. This phosphorylation-based mechanism provides a universal means to balance growth and immune defense across species.

The study identifies RAF24, a B4 Raf-like MAPKKK, as a novel regulator of flowering time in Arabidopsis, demonstrating that RAF24 controls the phosphorylation of the ubiquitin ligase HUB2 via SnRK2 kinases, thereby modulating H2Bub1 levels. Phospho‑mimetic and phospho‑ablative HUB2 mutants confirm that phosphorylation at S314 is critical for proper flowering timing.

The study provides an in‑depth proteomic characterization of brewer's spent grain (BSG) and tracks proteome dynamics during malting and mashing, revealing that 29% of identified proteins change in abundance and that B3‑Hordein dominates the BSG protein pool. BSG contains a high proportion of intracellular proteins and over 45% of its proteins are potential allergens or antinutritional factors, underscoring the need for targeted downstream processing to create safe, functional food ingredients.

The study uncovers a feedback mechanism wherein phosphomimic mutation (PetD T4E) or deletion of the N‑terminal five amino acids of the b6f subunit PetD suppresses STT7 kinase activity, leading to a State 1‑locked phenotype and impaired electron transfer, highlighting the essential regulatory role of the PetD N‑terminus in photosynthetic state transitions.
