Metacaspases mediate thermotolerance of diatoms following marine heat waves

Mai Sadeh, Daniella Schatz, Shifra Ben‐Dor, Avia Mizrachi, Shiri Graff van Creveld, Amichai Zafrin, Assaf Vardi

This study shows that metacaspases in diatoms are crucial for thermotolerance during marine heat waves, as their absence leads to increased heat sensitivity and oxidative stress.
