This project investigates the role of a specific receptor, C53, in the autophagy process of plants, focusing on its interactions with ATG8 and UFM1 proteins. By characterizing these interactions and exploring the ufmylome, the research aims to enhance stress tolerance in crops, particularly rice.
Autophagy is a highly selective cellular quality control pathway.
Selective removal of autophagic cargo are mediated by cargo receptors that contain cargo binding domains and ATG8 interacting motifs to bridge the cargo with autophagosomes.
Although cargo receptors are the key players linking autophagy to cellular quality control, most of them are still waiting to be uncovered in plants.
Identification and characterization of novel cargo receptors will pave the way for future translational studie…
