Photosynthetic control (PCON) is a protective mechanism that prevents light-induced damage to photosystem I (PSI) by ensuring the rate of NADPH and ATP production via linear electron transfer (LET) is balanced by their consumption in the CO2 fixation reactions. Protection of PSI is a priority for plants since they lack a dedicated rapid-repair cycle for this complex, meaning that any damage leads to prolonged photoinhibition and decreased growth. The imbalance between LET and the CO2 fixation reactions is sensed at the level of the transthylakoid ΔpH, which increases when light is in excess. The canonical mechanism of PCON involves feedback control by ΔpH on the plastoquinol oxidation step of LET at cytochrome b6f. PCON thereby maintains the PSI special pair chlorophylls (P700) in an oxidized state, that allows excess electrons unused in the CO2 fixation reactions to be safely quenched via charge recombination. In this review we focus on angiosperms, considering how photo-oxidative damage to PSI comes about, explore the consequences of PSI photoinhibition on photosynthesis and growth, discuss recent progress in understanding PCON regulation, and finally consider the prospects for its future manipulation in crop plants to improve photosynthetic efficiency.
光合控制（PCON）是一种保护机制，通过确保通过线性电子传递（LET）产生的 NADPH 和 ATP 的速率与 CO2 固定反应中的消耗相平衡，从而防止光诱导对光子系统 I（PSI）造成损害。保护 PSI 是植物的当务之急，因为植物缺乏专门针对这一复合体的快速修复循环，这意味着任何损伤都会导致长时间的光抑制和生长衰退。LET 与 CO2 固定反应之间的不平衡可通过转紫函 ΔpH 水平来感知，当光照过量时，ΔpH 会升高。PCON 的典型机制包括 ΔpH 对细胞色素 b6f 中 LET 的质醌氧化步骤的反馈控制。因此，PCON 使 PSI 特殊配对叶绿素（P700）保持氧化状态，从而使二氧化碳固定反应中未使用的多余电子通过电荷重组被安全淬灭。在这篇综述中，我们将以被子植物为研究对象，探讨 PSI 光氧化损伤是如何产生的，探讨 PSI 光抑制对光合作用和生长的影响，讨论在了解 PCON 调节方面的最新进展，最后探讨未来在作物中利用 PCON 提高光合效率的前景。

Plant cells need to respond to environmental stimuli and developmental signals accurately and promptly. Ubiquitylation is a reversible posttranslational modification that enables the adaptation of cellular proteostasis to internal or external factors. The different topologies of ubiquitin linkages serve as the structural basis for the ubiquitin code, which can be interpreted by ubiquitin-binding proteins or readers in specific processes. The ubiquitylation status of target proteins is regulated by ubiquitylating enzymes or writers, and deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs) or erasers. DUBs can remove ubiquitin molecules from target proteins. Arabidopsis (A. thaliana) DUBs belong to seven protein families and exhibit a wide range of functions and play an important role in regulating selective protein degradation processes, including proteasomal-, endocytic-, and autophagic protein degradation. DUBs also shape the epigenetic landscape and modulate DNA damage repair processes. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on DUBs in plants, their cellular functions, and the regulatory mechanisms involved in the spatiotemporal regulation of plant DUBs.

Plants continuously remodel and degrade their organelles due to damage from their metabolic activities and environmental stressors, as well as an integral part of their cell differentiation programs. Whereas certain organelles use local hydrolytic enzymes for limited remodeling, most of pathways that control the partial or complete dismantling of organelles rely on vacuolar degradation. Specifically, selective autophagic pathways play a crucial role in recognizing and sorting plant organelle cargo for vacuolar clearance, especially under cellular stress conditions induced by factors like heat, drought, and damaging light. In these short reviews, we discuss the mechanisms that control the vacuolar degradation of chloroplasts, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, and peroxisomes, with an emphasis on autophagy, recently discovered selective autophagy receptors for plant organelles, and crosstalk with other catabolic pathways.

Lignin production marked a milestone in vascular plant evolution, and the emergence of syringyl (S)-lignin is lineage-specific. S-lignin biosynthesis in angiosperms, mediated by ferulate 5-hydroxylase (F5H, CYP84A1), has been considered a recent evolutionary event. F5H uniquely requires the cytochrome b5 protein CB5D as an obligatory redox partner for catalysis. However, it remains unclear how CB5D functionality originated and whether it co-evolved with F5H. We reveal here the ancient evolution of CB5D-type function supporting F5H-catalyzed S-lignin biosynthesis. CB5D emerged in charophyte algae, the closest relatives of land plants, and is conserved and proliferated in embryophytes, especially in angiosperms, suggesting functional diversification of the CB5 family before terrestrialization. A sequence motif containing acidic amino residues in helix 5 of the CB5 heme-binding domain contributes to the retention of CB5D function in land plants but not in algae. Notably, CB5s in the S-lignin-producing lycophyte Selaginella lack these residues, resulting in no CB5D-type function. An independently evolved S-lignin biosynthetic F5H (CYP788A1) in Selaginella relies on NADPH-dependent cytochrome P450 reductase as sole redox partner, distinct from angiosperms. These results suggest that angiosperm F5Hs co-opted the ancient CB5D, forming a modern cytochrome P450 monooxygenase system for aromatic ring meta-hydroxylation, enabling the re-emergence of S-lignin biosynthesis in angiosperms.

Cyanobacteria, red algae, and cryptophytes produce two classes of proteins for light-harvesting: water-soluble phycobiliproteins and membrane-intrinsic proteins that bind chlorophylls and carotenoids. In cyanobacteria, red algae, and glaucophytes, phycobilisomes (PBS) are complexes of brightly colored phycobiliproteins and linker (assembly) proteins. To date, six structural classes of phycobilisomes have been described: hemiellipsoidal, block-shaped, hemidiscoidal, bundle-shaped, paddle-shaped, and far-red-light bicylindrical. Two additional antenna complexes containing single types of phycobiliproteins have also been described. Since 2017, structures have been reported for examples of all of these complexes except bundle-shaped phycobilisomes by cryogenic electron microscopy. Phycobilisomes range in size from about 4.6 to 18 MDa and can include ∼900 polypeptides and bind >2000 chromophores. Cyanobacteria additionally produce membrane-associated proteins of the PsbC/CP43 superfamily of Chl a/b/d-binding proteins, including the iron-stress protein IsiA and other paralogous chlorophyll-binding proteins that can form antenna complexes with Photosystem I and/or Photosystem II. Red and cryptophyte algae also produce chlorophyll-binding proteins associated with Photosystem I but which belong to the chlorophyll a/b-binding (CAB) protein superfamily and which are unrelated to the chlorophyll-binding proteins (CBP) of cyanobacteria. This review describes recent progress in structure determination for phycobilisomes and the chlorophyll proteins of cyanobacteria, red algae, and cryptophytan algae.
蓝藻、红藻和隐藻会产生两类用于光收集的蛋白质：水溶性藻体蛋白和结合叶绿素和类胡萝卜素的膜内蛋白。在蓝藻、红藻和褐藻中，藻体（PBS）是由色彩鲜艳的藻体蛋白和连接蛋白（组装蛋白）组成的复合物。迄今为止，已经描述了六种结构类型的藻体：半椭球形、块状、半iscoidal、束状、桨状和远光双圆柱形。此外，还描述了另外两种含有单一类型藻体蛋白的天线复合体。自 2017 年以来，除了束状藻体之外，其他所有这些复合体的结构都已通过低温电子显微镜进行了报道。藻体的大小从约4.6到18MDa不等，可包括900个多肽并结合>2000个发色团。蓝藻还产生与膜相关的 PsbC/CP43 超家族叶绿素 a/b/d 结合蛋白，包括铁应激蛋白 IsiA 和其他可与光系统 I 和/或光系统 II 形成天线复合物的同族叶绿素结合蛋白。红藻和隐藻也产生与光系统 I 有关的叶绿素结合蛋白，但它们属于叶绿素 a/b 结合蛋白超家族，与蓝藻的叶绿素结合蛋白（CBP）无关。本综述介绍了蓝藻、红藻和隐藻中的藻体和叶绿素蛋白结构测定的最新进展。

Flowering is a key developmental transition in the plant life cycle. In temperate climates, flowering often occurs in response to the perception of seasonal cues such as changes in day-length and temperature. However, the mechanisms that have evolved to control the timing of flowering in temperate grasses are not fully understood. We identified a Brachypodium distachyon mutant whose flowering is delayed under inductive long-day conditions due to a mutation in the JMJ1 gene, which encodes a Jumonji domain-containing protein. JMJ1 is a histone demethylase that mainly demethylates H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 in vitro and in vivo. Analysis of the genome-wide distribution of H3K4me1, H3K4me2, and H3K4me3 in wild-type plants by chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq) combined with RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revealed that H3K4m1 and H3K4me3 are positively associated with gene transcript levels, whereas H3K4me2 is negatively correlated with transcript levels. Furthermore, JMJ1 directly binds to the chromatin of the flowering regulator genes VRN1 and ID1 and affects their transcription by modifying their H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 levels. Genetic analyses indicated that JMJ1 promotes flowering by activating VRN1 expression. Our study reveals a role for JMJ1-mediated chromatin modification in the proper timing of flowering in B. distachyon.

The signaling molecule auxin sits at the nexus of plant biology and coordinates essentially all growth and developmental processes in plants. Auxin molecules are transported throughout plant tissues and are capable of evoking highly specific physiological responses in plant cells by inducing various molecular pathways. In many of these pathways, proteolysis plays a crucial role for correct physiological responses. This review provides a chronology of the discovery and characterisation of the auxin receptor, which is a fascinating example of separate research trajectories ultimately converging on the discovery of a core auxin signaling hub which relies on degradation of a family of transcriptional inhibitor proteins – the Aux/IAAs. Beyond describing the “classical” proteolysis-driven auxin response system, we explore more recent examples of the interconnection of proteolytic systems, which target a range of other auxin signaling proteins, and auxin response. By highlighting these emerging concepts, we provide potential future directions to further investigate the role of protein degradation within the framework of auxin response.

Cereal grains are an important source of food and feed. To provide comprehensive spatiotemporal information about biological processes in developing seeds of cultivated barley (Hordeum vulgare L. subsp. vulgare), we performed a transcriptomic study of the embryo, endosperm, and seed maternal tissues collected from grains 4–32 days after pollination. Weighted gene co-expression network and motif enrichment analyses identified specific groups of genes and transcription factors (TFs) potentially regulating barley seed tissue development. We defined a set of tissue-specific marker genes and families of TFs for functional studies of the pathways controlling barley grain development. Assessing selected groups of chromatin regulators revealed that epigenetic processes are highly dynamic and likely play a major role during barley endosperm development. The repressive H3K27me3 modification is globally reduced in endosperm tissues and at specific genes related to development and storage compounds. Altogether, this atlas uncovers the complexity of developmentally regulated gene expression in developing barley grains.
