Abstract excerpt
Caseinolytic protease (CLPP) is an energy-dependent serine-type protease that plays a role in protein quality control. The CLPP gene is highly conserved across kingdoms and the protein is present in both bacteria and eukaryote organelles like mitochondria across a wide phylogenetic range. This pedigree has all the hallmarks of CLPP being an essential gene. However, in plants, disruption of mitochondrial CLPP has...
