Plant Virus Cell-to-Cell Movement Is Not Dependent on the Transmembrane Disposition of Its Movement Protein [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2009
ABSTRACT The cell-to-cell transport of plant viruses depends on one or more virus-encoded movement proteins (MPs). Some MPs are integral membrane proteins that interact with the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum, but a detailed understanding of the interaction between MPs and biological membranes has been lacking. The cell-to-

Understanding the intracellular trafficking and intercellular transport of potexviruses in their host plant

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
The movement of potexviruses through the cytoplasm to plasmodesmata (PD) and through PD to adjacent cells depends on the viral and host cellular proteins. Potexviruses encode three movement proteins (referred to as the triple gene block or TGB1–3).

Modelling cell movement, cell differentiation, cell sorting and proportion regulation in Dictyostelium discoideum aggregations [PDF]

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2015
Understanding the mechanisms that control tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis is a central goal not only in developmental biology but also has great relevance for our understanding of various diseases, including cancer. A model organism that is widely used to study the control of tissue morphogenesis and proportioning is the Dictyostelium discoideum ...

Creating Contacts Between Replication and Movement at Plasmodesmata – A Role for Membrane Contact Sites in Plant Virus Infections?

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
To infect their hosts and cause disease, plant viruses must replicate within cells and move throughout the plant both locally and systemically. RNA virus replication occurs on the surface of various cellular membranes, whose shape and composition become ...

The primary function of Six5 of Fusarium oxysporum is to facilitate Avr2 activity by together manipulating the size exclusion limit of plasmodesmata

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Pathogens produce effector proteins to manipulate their hosts. While most effectors act autonomously, some fungal effectors act in pairs and rely on each other for function.

Selective Targeting of Mobile mRNAs to Plasmodesmata for Cell-to-Cell Movement [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2018
Many plant mRNAs move from cell to cell or long distance to execute non-cell-autonomous functions. These mobile mRNAs traffic through the phloem to regulate many developmental processes, but despite the burgeoning discovery of mobile mRNAs, little is known about the mechanism underlying the intracellular sorting of these mRNAs.

Extracellular Matrix in Plants and Animals: Hooks and Locks for Viruses

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
The extracellular matrix (ECM) of animal and plants cells plays important roles in viral diseases. While in animal cells extracellular matrix components can be exploited by viruses for recognition, attachment and entry, the plant cell wall acts as a ...

Analysis of Dielectrophoretic Movement of Cell Flowing in Micro-Channel Related to Shape of Cell [PDF]

Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, 2021
Dielectrophoresis has been tried to be applied to cell sorting technology in previous studies. In the present study, the movement of mouse myoblast cells flowing through the perpendicular electric field in a micro- channel has been analyzed in vitro.

Tobacco mosaic virus: a pioneer to cell–to–cell movement [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1999
Cell–to–cell movement of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is used to illustrate macromolecular traffic through plant intercellular connections, the plasmodesmata. This transport process is mediated by a specialized viral movement protein, P30. In the initially infected cell, P30 is produced by transcription of a subgenomic RNA derived from the invading virus.

Cell-to-cell stimulation of movement in nonmotile mutants of Myxococcus [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1977
A large number of nonmotile mutants of the gliding bacterium Myxococcus xanthus have been isolated and partly characterized. About [unk] of these mutants are conditional mutants of a novel kind: mutant cells become transiently motile after contact with nonmutant cells or with cells of a different mutant type. These “
