Abstract
Plasma membrane (PM)-associated abscisic acid (ABA) signal transduction is an important component of ABA signaling. The C2-domain ABA-related (CAR) proteins have been reported to play a crucial role in recruiting ABA receptor PYR1/PYL/RCAR (PYLs) to the PM. However, the molecular details of the involvement of CAR proteins in membrane-delimited ABA signal transduction remain unclear. For instance, where this response process takes place and whether any additional members besides PYL are taking part in this signaling process. Here, the GUS-tagged materials for all Arabidopsis CAR members were used to comprehensively visualize the extensive expression patterns of the CAR family genes. Based on the representativeness of CAR1 in response to ABA, we determined to use it as a target to study the function of CAR proteins in PM-associated ABA signaling. Single-particle tracking showed that ABA affected the spatiotemporal dynamics of CAR1. The presence of ABA prolonged the dwell time of CAR1 on the membrane and showed faster lateral mobility. Surprisingly, we verified that CAR1 could directly recruit hypersensitive to ABA1 (HAB1) and SNF1-related protein kinase 2.2 (SnRK2.2) to the PM at both the bulk and single-molecule levels. Furthermore, PM localization of CAR1 was demonstrated to be related to membrane microdomains. Collectively, our study revealed that CARs recruited the three main components of ABA signaling to the PM to respond positively to ABA. This study deepens our understanding of ABA signal transduction.

Abstract
An epoxy resin thermally conductive adhesive is a type of thermosetting polymer encapsulation material that exhibits comprehensive performance, and the thermomechanical properties of this adhesive vary significantly under different curing conditions. In this paper, spherical alumina was used as a filler for thermal conductivity to prepare an epoxy resin thermal conductivity adhesive using a multistage freezing mixing method. The effects of various curing conditions on the thermal-mechanical properties and fracture morphology of the epoxy resin thermal conductivity adhesive were studied. The results showed that the curing condition of 150 °C/2.5 h significantly improved the performance of the epoxy resin thermally conductive adhesive. Through the shear test of the composite material, the influence of the curing agent on the adhesion of the thermally conductive adhesive under fixed conditions was explored. It was found that the curing agent with a superbranched structure exhibited latent properties and greatly enhanced the toughness of the cured epoxy resin product. Altering the curing conditions increases the shear strength by up to 307%. With the increase in curing temperature and the extension of curing temperature, the glass transition temperature gradually increased from 103.9 to 159.8 °C. The initial decomposition temperature TIDT gradually increased from 295.4 to 310.1 °C, and the temperature at which the fastest decomposition rate occurs (Tmax) gradually increased from 312.48 to 330.33 °C. The thermal stability of the substance increased with both temperature and time. The curing time and curing temperature were increased, and the morphology of the fracture of the epoxy resin thermally conductive adhesive cured sample gradually showed a ductile fracture from a typical brittle fracture. The research results reveal the influence of curing conditions on the thermal conductivity and thermal stability of the epoxy resin thermally conductive adhesive, which has a specific reference value for improving the performance of the epoxy resin thermally conductive adhesive, optimizing its usage conditions, and improving production efficiency.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of cadaverine from lysine is an environmentally promising technology, that could contribute to a more sustainable approach to manufacturing bio-nylon 5X. However, the titer of biosynthesized cadaverine has still not reached a sufficient level for industrial production. A powerful green cell factory was developed to enhance cadaverine production by regulating lipopolysaccharide (LPS) genes and improving membrane permeability. Firstly, 10 LPS mutant strains were constructed and the effect on the growth was investigated. Then, the lysine decarboxylase (CadA) was overexpressed in 10 LPS mutant strains of Escherichia coli MG1655 and the ability to produce cadaverine was compared. Using 20.0 g L-1 of L-lysine hydrochloride (L-lysine-HCl) as the substrate for the biotransformation reaction, Cad02 and Cad06 strains exhibited high production levels of cadaverine, with 8.95 g L-1 and 7.55 g L-1 respectively while the control strain Cad00 only 4.92 g L-1 . Directed evolution of CadA was also used to improve its stability under alkaline conditions. The cadaverine production of the Cad02-M mutant stain increased by 1.86 times at pH 8.0. Finally, the production process was scaled up using recombinant whole cells as catalysts, achieving a high titer of 211 g L-1 cadaverine (96.8%) by fed-batch bioconversion. This study demonstrates the potential role of LPS in enhancing the efficiency of mass transfer between substrate and enzymes in vivo by increasing cell permeability. The results indicate that the argumentation of cell permeability could not only significantly enhance the biotransformation efficiency of cadaverine, but also provide a universally applicable, straightforward, environment-friendly, and cost-effective method for the biosynthesis of other high-value chemicals.

Abstract
Heat stress causes dysfunction of the carbon-assimilation metabolism. As a member of Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle, the chloroplast triose phosphate isomerases (TPI) catalyse the interconversion of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP). The tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) genome contains two individual SlTPI genes, Solyc10g054870 and Solyc01g111120, which encode the chloroplast-located proteins SlTPI1 and SlTPI2, respectively. The tpi1 and tpi2 single mutants had no visible phenotypes, but the leaves of their double mutant lines tpi1tpi2 had obviously reduced TPI activity and displayed chlorotic variegation, dysplasic chloroplasts and lower carbon-assimilation efficiency. In addition to altering carbon metabolism, proteomic data showed that the loss of both SlTPI1 and SlTPI2 severely affected photosystem proteins, reducing photosynthetic capacity. None of these phenotypes was evident in the tpi1 or tpi2 single mutants, suggesting that SlTPI1 and SlTPI2 are functionally redundant. However, the two proteins differed in their responses to heat stress; the protein encoded by the heat-induced SlTPI2 showed a higher level of thermotolerance than that encoded by the heat-suppressed SlTPI1. Notably, heat-induced transcription factors, SlWRKY21 and SlHSFA2/7, which negatively regulated SlTPI1 expression and positively regulated SlTPI2 expression, respectively. Our findings thus reveal that SlTPI1 and SlTPI2 have different thermostabilities and expression patterns in response to heat stress, which have the potential to be applied in thermotolerance strategies in crops.
