The MYB36 transcription factor orchestrates Casparian strip formation [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2015 Significance Casparian strips play a critical role in sealing endodermal cells in the root to block uncontrolled extracellular uptake of nutrients and water. Building Casparian strips requires the construction of extracellular lignin structures that encircle cells within the cell wall and that are anchored to the plasma membranes of ...

Are cuproproteins part of the multi-protein framework for making the Casparian strip? [PDF]
Plant Signaling and Behavior, 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. The polarly localized, lignin-based CS is an excellent system for studying peptide signaling and position recognition.

High-order mutants reveal an essential requirement for peroxidases but not laccases in Casparian strip lignification [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance Lignin is a defining polymer of vascular plants and of great physiological, ecological, and economical importance. Yet, its polymerization in the cell wall is still not understood. Lignin polymerizing enzymes, laccases and peroxidases, exist in vast numbers in plant genomes. By focusing on a specific lignin structure, the

The Casparian strip functions as a bidirectional gate for calcium homeostasis in Arabidopsis
Earth Critical ZoneCalcium (Ca) is an essential mineral nutrient transported in plants predominantly through the apoplastic pathway. While the molecular assembly of the Casparian strip (CS), the critical apoplastic barrier in the root endodermis, has been elucidated ...

Plant Biology: Journey to the Center of the Casparian Strip [PDF]
Current Biology, 2020 Diffusion barriers in roots play an important role in regulating the movement of compounds between the soilenvironment and the vasculature. A new study provides new mechanistic insights into how a pair of copper-binding proteins facilitate the formation of a lignified nanodomain within Casparian strips.

Development of Casparian strip in rice cultivars. [PDF]
Plant Signal Behav, 2011 The development of Casparian strips (CSs) on the endo- and exodermis and their chemical components in roots of three cultivars of rice (Oryza sativa) with different salt tolerance were compared using histochemistry and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The development and deposition of suberin lamellae of CSs on the endo- and exodermis in

Physiological roles of Casparian strips and suberin in the transport of water and solutes [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2021 Summary The formation of Casparian strips (CS) and the deposition of suberin at the endodermis of plant roots are thought to limit the apoplastic transport of water and ions. We investigated the specific role of each of these apoplastic barriers in the control of hydro‐mineral transport by roots and the consequences on shoot growth.
