Description

Li and co-authors review how plants tweak their proteins to survive harsh conditions, in this 2025 paper. These tweaks, called post-translational modifications, change a protein's behavior without changing how much of it is made. About two dozen kinds are known.

The review covers the main types, including phosphate tags, disposal tags, and sugar or fat additions. Each type is traced through plant responses to heat, cold, drought, and salt. For heat, for example, the tweaks switch on guard factors that protect cells. Knowing which tweak acts where could help breeders build crops that hold up as climates grow harsher.
