DESCRIPTION:After three successful conferences on Plant Proteases and Progr
 ammed Cell Death organized in Hemavan\, Sweden (2011)\; Barcelona\, Spain 
 (2013)\; and Oxford\, UK (2016)\, it is our pleasure to host the fourth me
 eting in the beautiful medieval town of Ghent\, Belgium.\n\nThe roles of p
 roteases in cell death\, immunity\, and developmental processes in plants 
 have received increasing attention over the past years. On the one hand\, 
 proteases exert a key regulatory level of posttranslational modification o
 n their substrates. On the other hand\, proteolytic cascades are involved 
 in household functions\, as well as responsible for point-of-no-return dec
 isions during developmentally or environmentally controlled programmed cel
 l death. Despite their importance\, however\, we still know little about t
 he functions and mode-of-actions of individual plant proteases. Over the p
 ast years\, several research groups have tackled the functional characteri
 zation of plant proteases from different angles. Some laboratories are adv
 ancing technology development\, others focus on biological processes that 
 depend on protease activities\, while again others elucidate the biochemis
 try of specific protease families.\n\nThe aim of our meeting is to bring r
 esearchers of these different research directions together to discuss the 
 latest developments and concepts in the field of plant proteases and progr
 ammed cell death. \n
