Short coiled‐coil proteins from plants and metazoans – the ‘jacks of all trades’
Short coiled‐coil proteins from plants and metazoans—true ‘jacks of all trades’—play supporting but crucial roles in cellular stress response, metabolism, autophagy, and membrane dynamics. Despite their small size and modest sequence conservation, proteins like plant LSUs and metazoan SCOCs showcase remarkable functional versatility shaped by evolution,

Late blight pathogen targets host Rab‐G3 GTPases with an atypical GTPase‐activating protein
The Phytophthora infestans RXLR effector Pi17063 functions as an atypical GTPase‐activating protein of host positive immune regulators, specifically the small GTPase NbRab‐G3. Pi17063 promotes the relocalization of NbRab‐G3 proteins to the cytoplasm, where they are inactive, disrupting the balance of the NbRab‐G3 switch and thus leading to enhanced ...
