Structure-function analysis of a calcium-independent metacaspase reveals a novel proteolytic pathway for lateral root emergence

2023-01-15

Abstract excerpt

Metacaspases are part of an evolutionarily broad family of multifunctional cysteine proteases, involved in disease and normal development. Despite the extensive study of metacaspases in the two decades since their discovery, the structure-function relationship of metacaspases remains poorly understood. Furthermore, previous studies on their function have been thwarted by the redundancy in gene copy number and pote...
