Abstract excerpt
Plants often respond to pathogens by sacrificing cells at the infection site. This type of programmed cell death is mimicked by the constitutive pathogene response5 (cpr5) mutant in Arabidopsis in the absence of pathogens, suggesting a role for CPR5 in programmed cell death control. The analysis of the cellular phenotypes of two T-DNA-tagged cpr5 alleles revealed an additional role for CPR5 in the regulation of...
