HECT-type ligases facilitate autoubiquitination and degradation of other ubiquitin ligases to activate plant immunity
The discoveries suggest that during plant immunity, HECT-type ligases and the proteasomes they associate with, control cellular proteostasis by governing the stabilities of both E3 ligases and their substrates by controlling the stability of autoubiquitinating E3 ligases.
