Plant cell walls consist of carbohydrate, protein, and aromatic compounds and are essential
to the proper growth and development of plants. The carbohydrate components make up∼ …

In eukaryotic cells, protein sorting is a highly regulated mechanism important for many
physiological events. After synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum and trafficking to the Golgi …

Bacterial, oomycete and fungal plant pathogens establish disease by translocation of
effector proteins into host cells, where they may directly manipulate host innate immunity. In …

We describe a green fluorescent protein (GFP)–based assay for investigating membrane
traffic on the secretory pathway in plants. Expression of At Rab1b (N121I), predicted to be a …

The trafficking and function of cell surface proteins in eukaryotic cells may require
association with detergent-resistant sphingolipid-and sterol-rich membrane domains. The …

This review is based on our recent experience in producing the first commercial recombinant
proteins in transgenic plants. We bring forward the issues that have to be considered in the …

Secretion is the cellular process present in every organism that delivers soluble proteins and
cargoes to the extracellular space. In eukaryotes, conventional protein secretion (CPS) is the …

Plant growth and development depends on the activity of a continuously replenished pool of
stem cells within the shoot apical meristem to supply cells for organogenesis. In Arabidopsis …

Hairy root cultures (HRCs), induced by Agrobacterium rhizogenes infection, have been
established from a wide variety of plant species. HRCs accumulate phytochemicals to levels …

In the mid to late 1960s, the discovery that eukaryotic secreted proteins are first segregated
in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) before traveling within membranous …
