This study engineers the Arabidopsis FLS2 receptor to control its oligomerization, showing that dimerization enhances immune responses while tetramerization impairs receptor turnover and weakens sustained signaling.

The paper analyzes phase-separating proteins across 1,106 species to reconstruct the evolutionary history of protein condensation and identifies phase separation-regulated signaling hubs.

This study identifies MoSpa2's role in organizing actin nucleation centers in Magnaporthe oryzae through phase separation, supporting polarized growth and host infection.

This study identifies ARHGAP12 as a regulator of the paracellular leak pathway by suppressing F-actin assembly at tight junctions without affecting ion flux.

The paper demonstrates that membrane curvature catalyzes actin nucleation through the condensation and activation of N-WASP by FBP17, revealing a curvature-guided mechanism for actin remodeling.
