Mitochondrial Small Heat Shock Proteins Are Essential for Normal Growth of Arabidopsis thaliana

Mitochondria play important roles in the plant stress responses and the detoxification of the reactive oxygen species generated in the electron transport chain. Expression of genes encoding stress-related proteins such as the mitochondrial small heat shock proteins (M-sHSP) is upregulated in respons...
