The metabolism of Archaea, the third domain of life, resembles in its complexity those of
Bacteria and lower Eukarya. However, this metabolic complexity in Archaea is accompanied …

Global warming is a major threat for agriculture and food safety and in many cases the
negative effects are already apparent. The current challenge of basic and applied plant …

Translation of aberrant mRNAs induces ribosomal collisions, thereby triggering pathways for
mRNA and nascent peptide degradation and ribosomal rescue. Here we use sucrose …

Globally distributed archaea comprising ammonia oxidizers of moderate terrestrial and
marine environments are considered the most abundant archaeal organisms on Earth …

Brief periods of heat stress of even a few days can have a detrimental effect on yield
production worldwide, causing devastating economic and societal impacts. Here we report …

Multiprotein bridging factor 1 (MBF1) is a very important transcription factor (TF) in plants,
whose members influence numerous defense responses. Our study found that MBF1c in …

The activity of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) leads to the loss of nitrogen from soil,
pollution of water sources and elevated emissions of greenhouse gas. To date, eight AOA …

Abstract The Multiprotein Bridging Factor 1 (MBF1) proteins are transcription co-factors
whose molecular function is to form a bridge between transcription factors and the basal …

Key message HbMBF1a was isolated and characterized in H. brevisubulatum, and
overexpressed HbMBF1a could enhance the salt tolerance and ABA insensitivity in …

Background Solid-state fermentation (SSF) mimics the natural decay environment of soil
fungi and can be employed to investigate the production of plant biomass-degrading …
