Project description:To explore the role and target of chloroplast proteases under heat stress, thylakoid membranes were isolated from wild-type and mutant chloroplast thylakoid membrane-localized proteases after heat stress and subjected to comparative quantification by LC-MS/MS analysis using the spectral counting method.
Project description:Innate immune responses of plant cells confer the first line of defence against pathogens. Signals generated by activated receptors are integrated inside the cell and converge on transcriptional programmes in the nucleus. In Arabidopsis, the CAMTA family of transcription factors plays a pivotal function in immunity. CAMTA binding motifs are highly enriched in the genes quickly induced during ETI and PTI. Using RNA-seq, we investigated the role of CAMTA TFs during the early ETI and PTI transcriptional responses.
