Functional characterization of the chaperon-like protein Cdc48 in cryptogein-induced immune response in tobacco

2017

SPEIPMUBINRASUPDATDOCT; Cdc48, a molecular chaperone conserved in different kingdoms, is a member of the AAA+ family contributing to numerous processes in mammals including proteins quality control and degradation, vesicular trafficking, autophagy and immunity. The functions of Cdc48 plant orthologues are less understood. We previously reported that Cdc48 is regulated by S-nitrosylation in tobacco cells undergoing an immune response triggered by cryptogein, an elicitin produced by the oomycete Phytophthora cryptogea. Here, we inv estigated the function of NtCdc48 in cryptogein signalling and induced hypersensitive-like cell death. NtCdc48 was found to accumulate in elicited cells at both th…

Study of the chaperone protein CDC48 and its involvement in plant immunity

2018

CDC48 is a conserved chaperone protein belonging to the AAA+ ATPase family (ATPase associated with various activities). This protein uses binding and hydrolysis of ATP to generate forces to affect the transformation of polypeptide substrate in numerous cellular processes. Studies on mammalian CDC48 orthologue revealed that it recognizes ubiquitylated polypeptides, directly or via partners, leading to substrate degradation or recycling. In plants, functions of CDC48 is less understood. The aim of my thesis, is to decipher the role of CDC48 in plant defense response context. First, I have to characterize NtCDC48 in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) suspension cells elicited by cryptogein, an elicit…
