The plant proteolytic machinery and its role in defence

Current Opinion in Plant Biology
Renier A L van der Hoorn, Jonathan D G Jones

Abstract

The diverse roles of plant proteases in defence responses that are triggered by pathogens or pests are becoming clearer. Some proteases, such as papain in latex, execute the attack on the invading organism. Other proteases seem to be part of a signalling cascade, as indicated by protease inhibitor studies. Such a role has also been suggested for the recently discovered metacaspases and CDR1. Some proteases, such as RCR3, even act in perceiving the invader. These exciting recent reports are probably just the first examples of what lies beneath. More roles for plant proteases in defence, as well as the regulation and substrates of these enzymes, are waiting to be discovered.

Apoptotic Caspases

Apoptotic caspases belong to the protease enzyme family and are known to play an essential role in inflammation and programmed cell death. Here is the latest research.

African Trypanosomiasis

African trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness, is an insect-borne parasitic disease of humans and other animals. It is caused by protozoa of the species Trypanosoma brucei and almost invariably progresses to death unless treated. Discover the latest research on African trypanosomiasis here.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
