Site-specific cleavage of bacterial MucD by secreted proteases mediates antibacterial resistance in Arabidopsis
During innate immune responses, plant cells secrete proteases into apoplastic spaces where they contribute to pathogen resistance. Here Wang et al. show that the Arabidopsis SAP1 and SAP2 proteases cleave the bacterial MucD protein to inhibit growth of Pseudomonas syringae.
