For over 60 years, salicylic acid (SA) has been known as a plant immune signal required for both basal and systemic acquired resistance (SAR). SA activates these immune responses by reprogramming up to 20% of the transcriptome through the function of NPR1. However, components in the NPR1-signaling h...
In eukaryotes, most newly synthesized ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) need to rapidly and safely get into the nucleus to reach their assembly site on pre-ribosomal particles. However, only for few r-proteins tailored support mechanisms involving so-called dedicated chaperones could so far be reveale...

The in vivo labeling technique Biotin identification (BioID, Roux et al., 2012) was used to capture proteins in the microenvironments of the ribosomal proteins Rps3 (uS3) and Rps20 (us10) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Biotinylated proteins were captured from cell lysates using affinity purification a...
In a previous study we applied a quantitative proximity-labeling technique called Biotin Identification (BioID, Roux et al., 2012) to analyze the microenvironment of the Gβ-like scaffold protein Asc1 (Opitz et al., 2017). The WD40-repeat protein Asc1 binds to the head region of the small 40S ribosom...
Adaptor protein (AP) complexes are pivotal components of the post-Golgi trafficking and endocytosis process and are involved in the selection, package and sorting of cargo into vesicles to different destination compartments in eukaryotic cells. The main objective of this project was to investigate t...
