This study uses ribosome profiling and RNA-seq to analyze how RCNMV infection alters translational control in Arabidopsis, identifying immune-related gene enrichment and novel viral translation features.

This paper demonstrates the application of plant RNA ThermoSwitches in Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression systems for temperature-controlled protein synthesis.

This study uses time-resolved transcriptomic profiling to analyze host and parasite gene expression during early Toxoplasma gondii infection in mouse macrophages, revealing rapid host immune responses and delayed parasite transcriptional activation.

The paper examines translational dynamics of C3 rice and C4 sorghum during photomorphogenesis, finding that C4 genes acquire translational control similar to C3 genes.

The paper shows that Salmonella uses the SPI-1 injectisome to trigger rapid translation of transcription factors in macrophages, which suppresses inflammation and cell death to aid infection.
