Autophagy Restricts Tomato Fruit Ripening Via a General Role in Ethylene Repression

G. Kumaran, P. K. Pathak, E. Quandoh, S. R. Mursalimov, J. Devi, S. Tuvia-Alkalai, J. X. Leong, K. Schenstnyi, E. Levin, S. Üstün, S. Michaeli

This study shows autophagy restricts tomato fruit ripening by repressing ethylene, with similar effects observed in Arabidopsis mutants.

ATG8 delipidation is not universally critical for autophagy in plants

Y. Zou, J. A. Ohlsson, S. Holla, I. Sabljic, J. X. Leong, F. Ballhaus, M. Krebs, K. Schumacher, P. N. Moschou, S. Stael, S. Uestuen, Y. Dagdas, P. Bozhkov, E. A. Minina

This study shows that ATG8 delipidation is essential for autophagy in Chlamydomonas but dispensable in Arabidopsis, highlighting evolutionary divergence in autophagy mechanisms.

The Arabidopsis SAC9 Enzyme is enriched in a cortical population of early endosomes and restricts PI(4,5)P2 at the Plasma Membrane

A. Lebecq, M. Doumane, A. Fangain, V. Bayle, J. X. Leong, F. Rozier, M. d. M. Marques-Bueno, L. Armengot, R. Boisseau, M. L. A. Simon, M. Franz-Wachtel, B. Macek, S. Ustun, Y. Jaillais, M.-C. Caillaud

The paper shows SAC9 restricts PI(4,5)P2 at the plasma membrane, preventing its ectopic accumulation in intracellular compartments and affecting clathrin-mediated endocytosis and SH3P2 localization.

A bacterial effector counteracts host autophagy by promoting degradation of an autophagy component

J. X. Leong, M. Raffeiner, D. Spinti, G. Langin, M. Franz-Wachtel, A. R. Guzman, J.-G. Kim, P. Pandey, A. E. A. Minina, B. Macek, A. Hafren, T. O. Bozkurt, M. B. Mudgett, F. Boernke, D. Hofius, S. Uestuen

This study shows that the bacterial effector XopL suppresses plant autophagy by degrading SH3P2, revealing a novel pathogen strategy to evade host defense.
