The chloroplast CLPD chaperone: consequences of under- and overexpression, interaction with the CLP protease core, and candidate substrates

This study investigates the role of CLPD in chloroplast proteostasis by analyzing its expression, developmental effects, and interactions with the CLP protease core and candidate substrates in Arabidopsis.

The chloroplast CLP chaperone-protease system controls the steady-state abundance of the singlet oxygen sensors EXCUTER 1 and 2

The paper investigates the role of the chloroplast CLP system in regulating the steady-state levels of EX1 and EX2, finding that CLP degradation maintains their low concentrations before their 1O2 signaling function.

Stromal DUF760-1 and DUF760-2 proteins are degraded by the chloroplast Clp protease system but have very different half-lives

The paper identifies DUF760-1 and DUF760-2 as substrates of the chloroplast CLP protease system, showing they have distinct degradation rates and functional roles.
