We had a genuinely exciting talk by Dr. Anuphon Laohavisit (Anu-san) today, from Nagoya University. Fantastic, new perspective in copper-dependent regulation of CARD1! 🤩

Fished my lectures at Nagoya University of Economics. I enjoyed teaching about university startups, even though it is completely outside my research field.

Florigen activation complex forms via multifaceted assembly in Arabidopsis - Nature
In flowering plants, DNA–FD–14-3-3 recruits FT to the florigen activation complex both through DNA–FT interactions and by reducing liquid phase condensation of FD protein, which promotes dimerization, leading to FT recruitment.

Companion cells with high florigen production express other small proteins and reveal a nitrogen-sensitive FT repressor
A distinct subset of leaf companion cells expresses high levels of the florigen gene, and the same cells also produce other possible mobile floral regulators and small proteins.
