Glycosylation of arabinogalactan-proteins essential for development in Arabidopsis

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2016
Arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) are ubiquitous cell wall components present throughout the plant kingdom. They are extensively post translationally modified by conversion of proline to hydroxyproline (Hyp) and by addition of arabinogalactan (AG ...

Arabinogalactan Proteins and the Extracellular Matrix of Charophytes: A Sticky Business [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Charophytes represent the group of green algae whose ancestors invaded land and ultimately gave rise to land plants 450 million years ago. While Zygnematophyceae are believed to be the direct sister lineage to embryophytes, different members of this ...

Arabinogalactan-proteins [PDF]

open access: yesWikiJournal of Science, 2021
Arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) are highly glycosylated proteins (glycoproteins) found in the cell walls of plants. AGPs account for only a small portion of the cell wall, usually no more than 1% of dry mass of the primary wall. AGPs are members of the hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein (HRGP) superfamily that represent a large and diverse group of ...

The Growth Oscillator and Plant Stomata: An Open and Shut Case

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Since Darwin’s “Power of Movement in Plants” the precise mechanism of oscillatory plant growth remains elusive. Hence the search continues for the hypothetical growth oscillator that regulates a huge range of growth phenomena ranging from circumnutation ...

Glycosylation Motifs That Direct Arabinogalactan Addition to Arabinogalactan-Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2003
Abstract Hydroxyproline (Hyp)-rich glycoproteins (HRGPs) participate in all aspects of plant growth and development. HRGPs are generally highly O-glycosylated through the Hyp residues, which means carbohydrates help define the interactive molecular surface and, hence, HRGP function.

The Placenta of Physcomitrium patens: Transfer Cell Wall Polymers Compared across the Three Bryophyte Groups

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Following similar studies of cell wall constituents in the placenta of Phaeoceros and Marchantia, we conducted immunogold labeling TEM studies of Physcomitrium patens to determine the composition of cell wall polymers in transfer cells on both sides of ...

A Molecular Pinball Machine of the Plasma Membrane Regulates Plant Growth—A New Paradigm

open access: yesCells, 2021
Novel molecular pinball machines of the plasma membrane control cytosolic Ca2+ levels that regulate plant metabolism. The essential components involve: 1. an auxin-activated proton pump; 2. arabinogalactan glycoproteins (AGPs); 3. Ca2+ channels; 4. auxin-

On the Potential Function of Type II Arabinogalactan O-Glycosylation in Regulating the Fate of Plant Secretory Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
In a plant-specific mode of protein glycosylation, various sugars and glycans are attached to hydroxyproline giving rise to a variety of diverse O-glycoproteins.

FASCICLIN-LIKE 18 Is a New Player Regulating Root Elongation in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The plasticity of root development represents a key trait that enables plants to adapt to diverse environmental cues. The pattern of cell wall deposition, alongside other parameters, affects the extent, and direction of root growth.

Structure and Development of the Legume-Rhizobial Symbiotic Interface in Infection Threads

open access: yesCells, 2021
The intracellular infection thread initiated in a root hair cell is a unique structure associated with Rhizobium-legume symbiosis. It is characterized by inverted tip growth of the plant cell wall, resulting in a tunnel that allows invasion of host cells
