Are cuproproteins part of the multi-protein framework for making the Casparian strip? [PDF]
Plant Signal Behav, 2020 Casparian strip (CS) is a lignified structure localized on the cell wall between adjacent root endodermal cells and functions as an apoplastic diffusion barrier in the root.

A Casparian strip domain-like gene, CASPL, negatively alters growth and cold tolerance. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2015 A cold-induced transcript encoding a Casparian strip membrane domain (CASP)-like protein (ClCASPL) was identified in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus). Fluorescence microscopy analysis showed that ClCASPL-GFP is localized in the plasma membrane.

A peptide hormone required for Casparian strip diffusion barrier formation in Arabidopsis roots [PDF]
Science, 2017 Plants achieve mineral ion homeostasis by means of a hydrophobic barrier on endodermal cells called the Casparian strip, which restricts lateral diffusion of ions between the root vascular bundles and the soil. We identified a family of sulfated peptides

Dual roles of suberin deposition at the endodermal Casparian strip in manganese uptake of rice. [PDF]
J Exp BotRice roots are characterized by having two Casparian strips (CSs) at the exodermis and endodermis, where transporters for mineral nutrients are expressed.

Comparative Analysis of Casparian Strip Membrane Domain Protein Family in Oryza sativa (L.) and Arabidopsis thaliana (L.). [PDF]
Int J Mol SciThe Casparian strip membrane domain proteins (CASPs) are pivotal for the formation of the Casparian strip (CS) in endodermal cells and play a crucial role in a plant’s response to environmental stresses. However, existing research on the CASP gene family

Laccase3-based extracellular domain provides possible positional information for directing Casparian strip formation in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2020 The Casparian strip (CS) is a tight junction-like structure formed by lignin impregnation on the walls of endodermal cells in plant roots. The CS membrane domain (CSDM), demarked by the CASP proteins, is important for orienting lignification enzymes ...

A receptor-like kinase mutant with absent endodermal diffusion barrier displays selective nutrient homeostasis defects [PDF]
eLife, 2014 The endodermis represents the main barrier to extracellular diffusion in plant roots, and it is central to current models of plant nutrient uptake. Despite this, little is known about the genes setting up this endodermal barrier. In this study, we report

Casparian Strip Fortification as a Defense Mechanism to <i>Fusarium oxysporum</i> f. sp. <i>vasinfectum</i> Race 4 Infection in a Highly Resistant <i>Gossypium barbadense</i> Cultivar. [PDF]
Genes (Basel)Background/Objectives: Fusarium wilt of cotton, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (FOV), is a destructive vascular disease that severely impacts cotton production. Among its variants, race 4 (FOV4) is especially aggressive, leading to early

Casparian strips prevent apoplastic diffusion of boric acid into root steles for excess B tolerance [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Casparian strips are ring-like structures consisting of lignin, sealing the apoplastic space between endodermal cells. They are thought to have important functions in controlling radial transport of nutrients and toxic elements in roots.
