Stabilization of Dry Sucrose Glasses by Four LEA_4 Proteins from <i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i>
Cells of many organisms and organs can withstand an (almost) total water loss (anhydrobiosis). Sugars play an essential role in desiccation tolerance due to their glass formation ability during dehydration. In addition, intrinsically disordered LEA proteins contribute to cellular survival under such...
