Cellulose synthase complexes (CSCs) at the plasma membrane (PM) are aligned with cortical microtubules (MTs) and direct biosynthesis of cellulose. The mechanism interaction between CSCs MTs, cellular determinants that control delivery PM, not yet well understood. We identified a unique small molecule, CESA TRAFFICKING INHIBITOR (CESTRIN), which reduces cellulose content alters anisotropic growth Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) hypocotyls. monitored distribution mobility fluorescently...

The dynamic trans-Golgi network/early endosome (TGN/EE) facilitates cargo sorting and trafficking plays a vital role in plant development environmental response. Transport protein particles (TRAPPs) are multi-protein complexes acting as guanine nucleotide exchange factors possibly tethers, regulating intracellular trafficking. TRAPPs essential all eukaryotic cells implicated number of human diseases. It has been proposed that they also play crucial roles plants; however, our current...

The plant trans-Golgi Network/Early Endosome (TGN/EE), as an organizer of vesicle trafficking, fulfills a crucial role for development and adaptation. Because it coordinates the transport cell material along different routes, is expected that number TGN/EE associated factors function in rapid organization post-Golgi trafficking to ensure proteins reach their destination. roles Transport Protein Particle (TRAPP) complexes regulation start emerge. We previously demonstrated TRAPPIII complex...
