Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Domain swapping identified essential elements for biochemical traits of AtMC4 and AtMC9.
- Observation Conserved signature residues were identified in AtMC4 and AtMC9 domains.
- Association AtMC9-like proteases were linked to evolution of more complex root archetypes.
- Observation atmc3 knockout mutants showed no visible abnormal phenotype alone or with other type I atmc mutants.
- Intervention effect atmc3 alleviated the lsd1 runaway cell death phenotype when crossed into that background.
- Mechanism AtMC3 may positively regulate HR cell death.
- Method / resource The study provided the first biochemical characterization dataset for Arabidopsis type I metacaspases.
