Proteolytic Proteoforms: Elusive Components of Hormonal Pathways?

Hormonal pathways often converge on transcriptional repressors that can be degraded by the proteasome to initiate a response. We wish to draw attention to developments in a less-explored proteolytic branch called ‘limited proteolysis’ that, in addition to the classical proteolytic pathways, seems to regulate auxin and ethylene signaling.
