The paper characterizes Physcomitrella 3UTRs to identify effective terminators for gene expression, showing promoters have a greater impact than terminators.

The paper identifies and characterizes 17 GAPDH isoforms in Physcomitrella, showing differential regulation in response to SA and MeJA treatments and a potential role in defense against necrotrophic pathogens.

This study shows hydrogen peroxide evokes long-distance electrical and calcium signals in Physcomitrella, with calcium and glutamate receptor ion channels playing key roles.

This study investigates the role of AARE proteases in plant ageing by analyzing mutants in Physcomitrella and Arabidopsis, linking AARE function to oxidized protein aggregation and lifespan.

This paper reports the unexpected arabinosylation observed during humanization of plant protein N-glycosylation, highlighting its implications for biopharmaceutical safety.

The paper designs a synthetic protein, MFHR13, that enhances complement regulation and shows improved therapeutic activity compared to existing treatments.

This study demonstrates stable N-glycan sialylation in genetically modified Physcomitrella patens by expressing mammalian enzymes and modifying galactosyltransferase genes.

The paper shows that expressing a human cDNA in moss leads to spliced mRNAs and non-functional protein isoforms, and presents a tool for codon optimization to improve protein yield.
