title: Plant Signaling: Ubiquitin Pulls the Trigger on Chloroplast Degradation.
abstract: Diverse proteolytic pathways regulate chloroplasts. Recent work has revealed significant new roles for chloroplast ubiquitination in stress adaptation, involving targeted protein removal through the ubiquitin-proteasome system, or selective, whole-chloroplast degradation.
