The ubiquitin–proteasome pathway protects Chlamydomonas reinhardtii against selenite toxicity, but is impaired as reactive oxygen species accumulate
Plants subjected to stress imposed by their environment often accumulate misfolded proteins, that would be cytotoxic if not properly removed by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP). During severe stress, the UPP becomes impaired, but the mechanisms that damage it are not well understood in plants....
