Autophagy deficiency leads to accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins, ER stress, and cell death in<i>Arabidopsis</i>

Abstract excerpt

Autophagy is a homeostatic degradation and recycling process that is also involved in defense against microbial pathogens and in certain forms of cellular suicide. Autophagy has been proposed to negatively regulate plant immunity-associated cell death related to the hypersensitive response (HR), as older autophagy-deficient mutants are unable to contain this type of cell death 5 to 10 d after infection. Such...
