Nuclear involvement of the Cell Division Cycle 48 protein during the plant immune response

2023

The control of protein homeostasis, a balance between their synthesis and degradation, also called proteostasis, is essential for cell survival. Any imbalance of the proteome, for instance triggered by a stress, leads to an accumulation of misfolded proteins leading to proteotoxic stress that can induce cell death. The ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) is a major actor in the selective degradation of misfolded proteins to preserve proteome balance.The chaperone-like Cdc48 is a member of the AAA+ ATPase enzyme family which isconserved in mammals (VCP), yeasts and plants (Cdc48: Cell Division Cycle 48/p97).Cdc48/VCP is a cytosolic and nuclear protein which segregates misfolded proteins fromsu…
