Heat-induced methylglyoxal impairs plant thermotolerance by repressing cpHSC70-1-mediated chloroplast protein import via post-translational modification.
It is demonstrated that heat stress induces the accumulation of the photorespiratory metabolite 2-phosphoglycolate (2PG), which inhibits the activity of plastid triose phosphate isomerase (pdTPI), leading to increased MG levels.
