Memories of heat: autophagy and Golgi recovery

Trends Plant Sci. 2024 Jun;29(6):607-609. doi: 10.1016/j.tplants.2023.12.009. Epub 2023 Dec 21.

Abstract

Fluctuations in temperature severely impact crop yield and trigger various plant response mechanisms. In a recent study, Zhou et al. discovered a non-canonical role of autophagy in mediating Golgi apparatus restoration after short-term heat stress (HS). Their results further suggest a critical, yet previously unknown, mechanism of autophagy-related (ATG)-8 in Golgi reassembly after HS.

Keywords: climate change; heat stress; stress response.
