Arabidopsis GHL1 is an orthologue of Hedgehog acyl transferase but likely catalyses GPI-anchor remodelling rather than peptide acylation.

Yelizaveta Prokhorova, Sonica Chaudhry, Krzysztof J. Wypijewski…·Piers A. Hemsley

This study investigates the function of Arabidopsis GUP1/HHAT-like proteins, showing they likely catalyse GPI-anchor remodelling rather than peptide acylation, and demonstrate a novel method for cell surface protein display.

Live-cell RNA imaging with the inactivated endonuclease Csy4 enables new insights into plant virus transport through plasmodesmata

David Burnett, Mohamed Hussein, Zoe Kathleen Barr…·Jens Tilsner

This paper introduces a live-cell RNA imaging system using an inactive Csy4 endonuclease to study plant virus transport through plasmodesmata, revealing RNA accessibility and non-specific recruitment of replication complexes.

Plasmodesmata act as unconventional membrane contact sites regulating inter-cellular molecular exchange in plants

Jessica Pérez‐Sancho, Marija Smokvarska, Gwennogan Dubois…·Emmanuelle Bayer

The paper shows plasmodesmata function as ER-PM tubular membrane contact sites that regulate intercellular molecular exchange in plants through PI4P and MCTP proteins.
