- Dehydration triggers liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of AGO1 via its prion-like domain in Arabidopsis.
- AGO1 condensation under dehydration influences miRNA regulatory activity and enhances plant dehydration tolerance.
- AGO1 phase separation is linked to cytoplasmic calcium levels and modulates the energy-consuming miRNA pathway.
- Rehydration reverses AGO1 condensation, restoring normal protein levels and miRNA functionality.
