Processing and release of the maize phytocytokine Zip1
2025-06-17
Abstract excerpt
Phytocytokines are endogenous peptides that modulate plant immunity outcomes, yet how their maturation and spatial deployment are controlled remains unclear. Here we show that the maize phytocytokine precursor PROZIP1 is controlled by a spatially separated, two-stage proteolytic pathway that mechanistically uncouples signal activation from extracellular attenuation. PROZIP1 associates with the endoplasmic reticulu...
