What Happens When Light Meets Cell: Is It Stress, Signal, or Something More?

Posted by , on 30 December 2024

In the hub of cellular responses, how does a beam of light trigger a cascade of molecular changes in plant cells? This question solves the mystery of photostimulation-induced stress and signaling, especially at the critical contact points between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and chloroplasts. These dynamic cellular sites act as points for communication, resource exchange,
