The Arabidopsis bHLH Transcription Factors MYC3 and MYC4 Are Targets of JAZ Repressors and Act Additively with MYC2 in the Activation of Jasmonate Responses
Patricia Fernández-Calvo,Andrea Chini,Gemma Fernández-Barbero,José-Manuel Chico,Selena Gimenez-Ibanez,Jan Geerinck,Dominique Eeckhout,Fabian Schweizer,Marta Godoy,José Manuel Franco-Zorrilla,Laurens Pauwels,Erwin Witters,Erwin Witters,María Isabel Puga,Javier Paz-Ares,Alain Goossens,Philippe Reymond,Geert De Jaeger,Roberto Solano +18 more
TL;DR: The results show that MYC3 and MYC4 are activators of JA-regulated programs that act additively with MYC2 to regulate specifically different subsets of the JA-dependent transcriptional response.
Journal ArticleDOI
NINJA connects the co-repressor TOPLESS to jasmonate signalling

Sewell,Eduardo Gil,Gloria García-Casado,Erwin Witters,Erwin Witters,Dirk Inzé,Dirk Inzé,Jeff A. Long,Geert De Jaeger,Geert De Jaeger,Roberto Solano,Alain Goossens,Alain Goossens +25 more
TL;DR: This work shows that the Arabidopsis JAZ proteins recruit the Groucho/Tup1-type co-repressor TOPLESS (TPL) and TPL-related proteins (TPRs) through a previously uncharacterized adaptor protein, designated Novel Interactor of JAZ (NINJA).
Journal ArticleDOI
Type II Metacaspases Atmc4 and Atmc9 of Arabidopsis thaliana Cleave Substrates after Arginine and Lysine
Dominique Vercammen,Brigitte van de Cotte,Geert De Jaeger,Dominique Eeckhout,Peter Casteels,Klaas Vandepoele,Isabel Vandenberghe,Jozef Van Beeumen,Dirk Inzé,Frank Van Breusegem +9 more
TL;DR: Detailed biochemical characterization with a broad range of synthetic oligopeptides and several protease inhibitors of purified recombinant proteins of both metacaspases showed that both metACaspases are arginine/lysine-specific cysteine proteases and did not cleave caspase-specific synthetic substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Targeted interactomics reveals a complex core cell cycle machinery in Arabidopsis thaliana
Jelle Van Leene,Jens Hollunder,Dominique Eeckhout,Geert Persiau,Eveline Van De Slijke,Hilde Stals,Gert Van Isterdael,Aurine Verkest,Sandy Neirynck,Yelle Buffel,Stefanie De Bodt,Steven Maere,Kris Laukens,Anne Pharazyn,Paulo Cg Ferreira,Nubia Barbosa Eloy,Nubia Barbosa Eloy,Charlotte Renne,Christian Meyer,Jean-Denis Faure,Jens Steinbrenner,Jim Beynon,John C. Larkin,Yves Van de Peer,Pierre Hilson,Martin Kuiper,Lieven De Veylder,Harry Van Onckelen,Dirk Inzé,Erwin Witters,Erwin Witters,Geert De Jaeger +31 more
TL;DR: Plants have evolved a combinatorial toolkit consisting of at least 92 different CDK–cyclin complex variants, which strongly underscores the functional diversification among the large family of cyclins and reflects the pivotal role of cell cycle regulation in the developmental plasticity of plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of factors required for m6A mRNA methylation in Arabidopsis reveals a role for the conserved E3 ubiquitin ligase HAKAI
Kamil Růžička,Kamil Růžička,Mi Zhang,Ana Campilho,Ana Campilho,Zsuzsanna Bodi,Muhammad Kashif,Mária Saleh,Dominique Eeckhout,Sedeer El-Showk,Hongying Li,Silin Zhong,Silin Zhong,Geert De Jaeger,Nigel P. Mongan,Jan Hejátko,Ykä Helariutta,Ykä Helariutta,Rupert G. Fray +18 more
TL;DR: Using combined methods of genetics, proteomics and RNA biochemistry, a core set of mRNA m6A writer proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana were identified and downregulation of these proteins led to reduced relative m 6A levels and shared pleiotropic phenotypes, indicating that correct m6 a methylation plays a role in developmental decisions during pattern formation.
