Kortikální cytoskelet, exocytický komplex exocyst a jejich role v morfogenzi rostlinných buněk
Plant cell morphogenesis is largely dependent on the coordination of cytoskeletal elements, plasma membrane, and vesicle trafficking. Formin proteins are nucleators of the actin cytoskeleton. Plant Class I family formins are integral membrane proteins and thus have the ability to coordinate cytoskeletal dynamics with the plasma membrane localization. We identified Arabidopsis thaliana formin AtFH4 as a microtubule associated protein. The binding is conferred by a novel domain located between the transmembrane domain and the formin homology 1 domain. The protein associated with actin in in vitro conditions. Overexpressed AtFH4 accumulated in the endoplasmic reticulum, and induced coalignment of endoplasmic reticulum membranes with microtubules. Together, these data suggest that the combination of plant-specific and conserved domains enables AtFH4 to function as an interface between membranes and both major cytoskeletal networks . Secretory pathways supported by the activity of the Golgi apparatus play a crucial role in cytokinesis in plant cells. Prior to their fusion with the plasma membrane, secretory vesicles are tethered at exocytic sites by the exocyst, an octameric protein complex. We analysed the mutant in the EXO84b exocyst subunit, and discovered that the mutant plants were dwarfed and exhibited...
