Description
Bochen Jiang, Zhenhui Zhong, and their co-authors show how blue light makes plant proteins clump into droplets that tune leaf green pigment. Their 2023 study works in the model plant Arabidopsis. Light governs pigment balance and photosynthesis, but its grip on RNA handling was little understood.
A blue light sensor called CRY2 clumps with an RNA tagging enzyme, FIO1, only when a partner protein, SPA1, is present. The pair boosts the enzyme's tagging of RNA messages. Those tags lift production of proteins the leaf needs for its green pigment machinery. When the sensor or the enzyme is missing, the light driven tagging fails. The work ties light sensing to RNA marks and pigment balance in one chain.
