Viral protease NIa-Pro increases MEDIATOR SUBUNIT16 cleavage and plant susceptibility to turnip mosaic virus and its aphid vector Myzus persicae.

S. Ray, T. Murad, G. D. Arena, K. Arshad, Z. Arendsee, V. Herath, S. A. Whitham, C. L. Casteel

This study shows that the viral protease NIa-Pro cleaves MED16, reducing plant defenses against TuMV and its aphid vector, thereby increasing virus and aphid performance.

Searching for Structure: Characterizing the Protein Conformational Landscape with Clustering-based Algorithms

A. C. Macke, J. E. Stump, M. S. Kelly, J. Rowley, V. Herath, S. Mullen, R. I. Dima

This paper introduces StELa, a clustering method that identifies protein conformational minima more effectively than existing methods like GROMOS and CATS.

Multiple ER-to-nucleus stress signaling pathways become active during Plantago asiatica mosaic virus and Turnip mosaic virus infection in Arabidopsis thaliana.

M. Gayral, O. A. Gaguancela, E. Vasquez, V. Herath, M. Pang, F. Florez, M. B. Dickman, J. Verchot

This study identifies multiple ER-to-nucleus signaling pathways activated during Plantago asiatica mosaic virus and Turnip mosaic virus infection in Arabidopsis thaliana, which restrict virus accumulation by enhancing protein folding capacity.
