3-Aminobenzamide Blocks MAMP-Induced Callose Deposition Independently of Its Poly(ADPribosyl)ation Inhibiting Activity [PDF]
Cell wall reinforcement with callose is a frequent plant response to infection. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a protein post-translational modification mediated by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs).

Proteomic Analysis of Plasmodesmata From Populus Cell Suspension Cultures in Relation With Callose Biosynthesis [PDF]
Plasmodesmata are channels that link adjacent cells in plant tissues through which molecular exchanges take place. They are involved in multiple processes vital to plant cells, such as responses to hormonal signaling or environmental challenges including

Callose is widely present in higher plants and plays a significant role in plant growth, development, and response to various stresses. Although numerous studies have highlighted the importance of the callose synthase (CalS) genes, their role in the ...

Background A number of innovations underlie the origin of rapid reproductive cycles in angiosperms. A critical early step involved the modification of an ancestrally short and slow-growing pollen tube for faster and longer distance transport of sperm to ...

Role of callose synthases in transfer cell wall development in tocopherol deficient Arabidopsis mutants [PDF]
Tocopherols (vitamin E) are lipid-soluble antioxidants produced by all plants and algae, and many cyanobacteria, yet their functions in these photosynthetic organisms are still not fully understood.

The maize callose synthase SLM1 is critical for a normal growth by controlling the vascular development. [PDF]
Callose, mainly deposited at the cell plate and in the newly formed cell wall at a very low level, is critical for cell activity and growth in plants. The genetic control and function of callose synthases, responsible for the synthesis of callose, are largely unknown in maize.

Genome-wide analysis of the CalS gene family in cotton reveals their potential roles in fiber development and responses to stress [PDF]
Callose deposition occurs during plant growth and development, as well as when plants are under biotic and abiotic stress. Callose synthase is a key enzyme for the synthesis of callose.

The function and biosynthesis of callose in high plants
The two main glucan polymers cellulose and callose in plant cell wall are synthesized at the plasma membrane by cellulose or callose synthase complexes. Cellulose is the prevalent glucan in cell wall and provides strength to the walls to support directed

CalS7 encodes a callose synthase responsible for callose deposition in the phloem [PDF]
Summary It has been known for more than a century that sieve plates in the phloem in plants contain callose, a β‐1,3‐glucan. However, the genes responsible for callose deposition in this subcellular location have not been identified. In this paper we examine callose deposition patterns in T‐DNA insertion mutants (

Novel localization of callose in the spores of Physcomitrella patens and phylogenomics of the callose synthase gene family [PDF]
Callose involvement in spore development is a plesiomorphic feature of land plants. Correlated light, fluorescence and immuno-electron microscopy was conducted on the developing spores of Physcomitrella patens to probe for callose. Using a bioinformatic approach, the callose synthase (PpCalS) genes were annotated and PpCalS and AtCalS gene families ...
