| Beschreibung: |
We are recruiting two PhD students to work on projects aimed at manipulating plant development using microProtein engineering. MicroProteins are small single-domain proteins that have been shown to control diverse biological pathways. While some microProteins are encoded as individual genes, we have evidence that other microProteins might be hiding in genes and are dynamically expressed in response to changes in the environment. We aim to dissect respective signaling pathways to understand the biological function of these small proteins and aim to use them as tools to modify specific signaling pathways. In the projects we will employ genome-engineering approaches in tomato and Arabidopsis plants to modulate microProtein expression and activity.
