Hypothetical model for how the plant root copes with excess thiol reductant. Crosstalk between mitochondria and the ER allows the activation of a NAC transcription factor that enhances the mETC capacity to alleviate thiol-mediated reductive stress. This maintains an oxidized state in the ER, preventing protein misfolding. Adapted from Fuchs et al. (2022), Figure 8.
