Structural and functional insights into the recombinant PR-10 tomato allergen Sola l 4.02

Abstract Sola l 4.02 is a major tomato allergen of the PR-10 family and a Bet v 1 homolog implicated in pollen–food cross-reactivity, yet its molecular properties remain poorly defined. Here, we report the recombinant production and its comprehensive structural and functional characterization. Sequence and structural a...

A photostable version of HY5 confers tolerance to proximity shade and improved defense responses in tomato

The results indicate that the editing approach allows the generation of gain-of-function tomato plants in which HY5 is camouflaged to avoid COP1 recognition and eventual degradation, and provides a biotechnological tool to create more compact and pathogen-resistant plants amenable to high planting densities.
