Most plants can`t handle salt, but have evolved strategies to survive in it. How do they do it?🌱🧪

Excited to share some of our first insights using a new cryoelemental imaging technique to answer these questions at the subcellular scale!(1/8)

Last month paper @Nature: "Elemental cryo-imaging reveals SOS1-dependent vacuolar sodium accumulation" rdcu.be/eaPvi, highlighted by a N&V "Imaging reveals how plants cope with salt" www.nature.com/articles/d41...

These three SIMS direct images of Na+ are just jaw-dropping.

🌱🧬Cryo nanoscale SIMS reveals sodium distribution in root meristems. At low salt, sodium accumulates in cell walls. At stressful levels, it shifts to vacuoles

SOS1 functions in vacuolar sodium sequestration, not extrusion #plantscience @priyaramakrishna.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🌱🧬 Cryo nanoscale SIMS shows sodium shifts from cell walls at low salt to vacuoles at high salt in root meristems.

SOS1 acts in vacuolar sequestration, not extrusion. #plantscience @ivedesmet1978.bsky.social @priyaramakrishna.bsky.social @nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New study from the lab! Colleagues found that roots do not expel salt through SOS1 during salt stress, but rather store it inside the vacuole.

Learn more about how they solved this by developing a new technology: CRYO-Nano-SIM

🧩Mechanistically, PI3K activity promotes PIP3-dependent membrane recruitment of GAB1 to form an EGFR/SHP2/SOS1 signalosome, enabling wild-type RAS/MAPK signaling. What’s more? This leads to resistance to KRAS inhibition, providing a rationale for co-targeting PI3KI and KRAS. 🎯
