  • SIRT4 comprises together with SIRT3 and SIRT5 the mitochondrially localized subgroup of sirtuins. SIRT4 regulates via its NAD+-dependent enzymatic activities mitochondrial bioenergetics, dynamics (mitochondrial fusion), and quality control (mitophagy). Here, we address the regulation of SIRT4 itself by characterizing its protein stability and degradation upon CoCl2-induced pseudohypoxic stress that typically triggers mitophagy. Interestingly, within the mitochondrial sirtuins, only the protein...

  • Weeds are becoming increasingly resistant to our current herbicides, posing a significant threat to agricultural production. Therefore, new herbicides are urgently needed. In this study, we exploited a novel herbicide target, dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS), which catalyses the first and rate-limiting step in lysine biosynthesis. Using a high throughput chemical screen, we identified the first class of plant DHDPS inhibitors that have micromolar potency against Ar...
