Mechanisms of auxin action in plant growth and development Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, Published online: 19 May 2025; doi:10.1038/s41580-025-00851-2The phytohormone auxin coordinates plant growth by forming local maxima and gradients through cell-to-cell transport and metabolic control. Recent research has identified novel signalling mechanisms involving extracellular auxin perception and auxin-mediated cyclic AMP production.

Broad application of plant protein tagging with ALFA tag for nanobody-based imaging and biochemical approaches Epitope tags are broadly used for detecting, modifying or purifying proteins of interest, but their breadth of application is often rather poor. Recently, the rationally designed ALFA tag and its ALFA...
