Methods Mol Biol
. 2018 Jun;
1789:1-7.
PMID: 29916067
Vacuolar trafficking plays a vital role in plant growth and development. In this chapter, we describe a powerful technique for the evaluation of vacuolar protein trafficking, which is designated as...

170(1):211-9.
PMID: 26546666
Adaptor protein (AP) complexes play critical roles in protein sorting among different post-Golgi pathways by recognizing specific cargo protein motifs. Among the five AP complexes (AP-1-AP-5) in plants, AP-4 is...

Mol Plant
. 2015 Jan;
8(3):389-98.
PMID: 25618824
Membrane trafficking to the protein storage vacuole (PSV) is a specialized process in seed plants. However, this trafficking mechanism to PSV is poorly understood. Here, we show that three types...

Plant J
. 2014 Aug;
80(3):410-23.
PMID: 25116949
Flavonoids are the most important pigments for the coloration of flowers and seeds. In plant cells, flavonoids are synthesized by a multi-enzyme complex located on the cytosolic surface of the...

Plant Cell Physiol
. 2013 Dec;
55(4):764-72.
PMID: 24363287
The trans-Golgi network (TGN) is a tubular-vesicular organelle that matures from the trans cisternae of the Golgi apparatus. In plants, the TGN functions as a central hub for three trafficking...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2010 Mar;
107(11):5220-5.
PMID: 20194745
Boron (B) is essential for plant growth but is toxic when present in excess. In the roots of Arabidopsis thaliana under B limitation, a boric acid channel, NIP5;1, and a...

Curr Opin Plant Biol
. 2009 Oct;
12(6):699-704.
PMID: 19836293
For mineral nutrients to be used by plants, they must be taken up from soil solutions into root cells and then transported to shoots. Mineral nutrient transporters play a central...

Genes Dev
. 2009 Oct;
23(21):2496-506.
PMID: 19833761
Plants have developed their own defense strategies because they have no immune cells. A common plant defense strategy involves programmed cell death (PCD) at the infection site, but how the...

Plant Cell
. 2007 Feb;
19(2):597-609.
PMID: 17293568
Two Arabidopsis thaliana genes have been shown to function in vacuolar sorting of seed storage proteins: a vacuolar sorting receptor, VSR1/ATELP1, and a retromer component, MAIGO1 (MAG1)/VPS29. Here, we show...
