Membrane contact sites (MCSs) between the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane enable the transport of lipids without membrane fusion. Extended Synaptotagmins (ESYTs) act at MCSs, functioning as tethers between two membrane compartments. In plants, ESYTs have been mainly investigated in A. thaliana and shown to maintain the integrity of th...
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) between the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane enable transport of lipids without membrane fusion in eukaryotes. Extended Synaptotagmins (ESYTs) can form and maintain MCSs, acting as tethers between two membrane compartments. In plants, ESYTs have been mainly investigated in the flowering plant Arabidopsis a...
The climate crisis impairs yield and quality of crucial crops like potatoes. We investigated the effects of heat stress on five morpho-physiological parameters in a diverse panel of 178 potato cultivars under glasshouse conditions. Overall, heat stress increased shoot elongation and green fresh weight, but reduced tuber yield, starch content and ha...
Controlling the time and dose of nanoparticulate drug delivery by administration of small molecule drugs holds promise for efficient and safer therapies. This study describes a versatile approach of exploiting antibody‐ligand interactions for the design of small molecule‐responsive nanocarrier and nanocomposite systems. For this purpose, antibody f...
