Description
Agnieszka Sirko and co-authors review two plant protein families that wake up when sulfur runs short in a 2026 paper. Sulfur feeds core chemistry in plants, and shortage rewires thousands of genes. Most of the responding proteins remain mysterious, but these two families, named SDI and LSU, have drawn focused work.
The review gathers evidence tying them to sulfur uptake and use, stress defense, and wider adaptation. Fresh results hint the LSU family also shapes growth and toughness under other stresses, far beyond sulfur hunger. The authors frame both families as hidden players whose full roles are only starting to emerge.
