Plants sense light through photoreceptors to switch from skotomorphogenesis in darkness to photomorphogenesis upon light exposure. This transition is centrally governed by the CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENESIS1 (COP1)/SUPPRESSOR OF PHYA-105 (SPA) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, which targets photomorphogenesis-promoting fac...

Peroxisomes are single-membrane-bound organelles essential for diverse metabolic reactions and cellular redox homeostasis, yet the contribution of ubiquitin-proteasome system to peroxisomal biology remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that the AAA-ATPase complex comprising Cell Division Cycle48 (CDC48), Nuclear Protei...
