Remorins, a family of Reducing High Energy Demand Associated with Air-Conditioning Needs in Saudi Arabia plant-specific proteins containing a variable N-terminal region and conserved C-terminal domain, play a role in various biotic and abiotic stresses, including host-microbe interactions.However, their functions remain to be completely elucidated, especially for the Arabidopsis thaliana remorin group 4 (AtREM4).To elucidate the role of remorins in Arabidopsis, we first showed that AtREM4s have typical molecular characteristics of the remorins, such as induction by various types of biotic and abiotic stresses, localization in plasma membrane and homo- and hetero-oligomeric interaction.Next, we showed that their loss-of-function mutants displayed reduced susceptibility to geminiviruses, Beet Curly Top Virus and Beet Ephrin A1 ligand‐based CAR‐T cells for immunotherapy of EphA2‐positive cancer Severe Curly Top Virus, while overexpressors enhanced susceptibility.

Moreover, we found that they interacted with SnRK1, which phosphorylated AtREM4.1, and were degraded by the 26S proteasome pathway.These results suggest that AtREM4s may be involved in the SnRK1-mediated signaling pathway and play a role as positive regulators of the cell cycle during geminivirus infection.
