Plants continuously respond to changing environmental conditions to prevent damage and maintain optimal performance. To regulate gas exchange with the environment and to control abiotic stress relief, plants have pores in their leaf epidermis, called stomata. Multiple environmental signals affect the opening and closing of these stomata.

Background: Differential target multiplexed spinal cord stimulation (DTM SCS) was shown to be superior to conventional SCS for treating chronic low back pain (CLBP) in subjects with persistent spinal pain syndrome with previous spinal surgery (PSPS-T2) or ineligible for it (PSPS-T1). This study reports 24-month efficacy and safety of DTM SCS vs. conventional medical management (CMM) in PSPS-T1 subjects across four European countries.

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) greatly increase protein diversity and functionality. To help the plant research community interpret the ever-increasing number of reported PTMs, the Plant PTM Viewer (https://www.psb.

Signal transduction relies largely on the activity of kinases and phosphatases that control protein phosphorylation. However, we still know very little about phosphorylation-mediated signaling networks. Plant MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASE KINASE KINASE KINASEs (MAP4Ks) have recently gained more attention, given their role in a wide range of processes, including developmental processes and stress signaling.
