The highly conserved protein kinase mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR; originally
known as mammalian target of rapamycin) is a central cell growth regulator connecting …

Under the natural environment, nutrient signals interact with phytohormones to coordinate
and reprogram plant growth and survival. Sugars are important molecules that control …

The developmental plasticity of plants relies on the remarkable ability of the meristems to
integrate nutrient and energy availability with environmental signals. Meristems in root and …

Highlights•Emerging sugar signals are discussed.•Direct sugar sensing and signaling is
triggered via sugar-binding sensors.•Sugar-derived metabolites modulate energy sensors …

Autophagy is a degradation process in which cells break down and recycle their cytoplasmic
contents when subjected to environmental stress or during cellular remodeling. The …

Target of rapamycin (TOR) is an evolutionarily conserved protein kinase that plays a central
role in both plants and animals, despite their distinct developmental programs and survival …

The evolutionarily conserved protein kinase complexes SnRK1 and TOR are central
metabolic regulators essential for plant growth, development, and stress responses. They …

The multidomain target of rapamycin (TOR) is an atypical serine/threonine protein kinase
resembling phosphatidylinositol lipid kinases, but retains high sequence identity and serves …

Plants are sessile photo-autotrophic organisms continuously exposed to a variety of
environmental stresses. Monitoring the sugar level and energy status is essential, since this …

Abstract The SnRK1 (SNF1-related kinase 1) kinases are the plant cellular fuel gauges,
activated in response to energy-depleting stress conditions to maintain energy homeostasis …
