The rendez-vous of mobile sieve-element and abundant companion-cell proteins.

Abstract:

:Thousands of sieve tube exudate proteins (STEP) have now been identified and predicted to fulfill a diversity of functions. However, most STEPs should be considered putative, since methods to collect sieve tube exudates have many technical drawbacks, and advanced functional characterization will be required to distinguish contaminant from bonafide proteins, and determine the latter's location and activity in sieve elements (SE). One major challenge is to develop new approaches to elucidate the function of these SE proteins, which in turn, is expected to shed light on intriguing aspects of SE cell biology.

  • Vacuolar processing enzyme: an executor of plant cell death.

    abstract::Apoptotic cell death in animals is regulated by cysteine proteinases called caspases. Recently, vacuolar processing enzyme (VPE) was identified as a plant caspase. VPE deficiency prevents cell death during hypersensitive response and cell death of limited cell layers at the early stage of embryogenesis. Because plants...
