#SeedLongevity

Seed longevity is controlled by metacaspases - Nature Communications Here, the authors have generated a metacapase type II depletion model providing evidence for their paramount role in seed longevity. They also show that this is accomplished by regulating the ERAD,…

Arabidopsis research reveals all 6 type-II #metacaspase mutations disrupt #proteostasis in seeds. Without proper CDC48 regulation, seed longevity diminishes. #SeedLongevity #NatureCommunications PMID:39117606, Nat Commun 2024, @NatureComms
