Insight into the Interactions Between GhXI-K and Rab GTPases in Cotton Fiber [PDF]
PlantsMyosin XI-K plays an important role in cell expansion and polarized growth, acting as a motor protein that drives organelle trafficking and cytoplasmic streaming.

BMC Plant Biology, 2008 Background The cytoskeletal mechanisms that underlie organelle transport in plants are intimately linked to acto-myosin function. This function is mediated by the attachment of myosin heads to F-actin and the binding of cargo to the tails.

Regulation of organ straightening and plant posture by an actin–myosin XI cytoskeleton [PDF]
Nature Plants, 2015 Plants are able to bend nearly every organ in response to environmental stimuli such as gravity and light(1,2). After this first phase, the responses to stimuli are restrained by an independent mechanism, or even reversed, so that the organ will stop bending and attain its desired posture.

The Roles of Myosin XI and ROP in Moss Tip Growth
, 2014 Because of the large number of myosin XI and ROP genes found in many angiosperms, it has been difficult to determine their precise role with respect to tip growth.

Spatial transcriptomic differences in the breast muscle of grower broilers at 21 and 28 days of age [PDF]
Poultry ScienceThis study investigated transcriptomic differences between the caudal and cranial areas in breast muscle in the grower phase of broiler chickens (D 21 and D 28). A total of 66 one-day-old broiler chickens were allotted to 6 cage pens of 11 birds per pen.

The role of class XI myosin in fertilization of Arabidopsis thaliana
, 2022 Fertilization is the process of fusion of haploid male and female gametes to develop a new individual. In most animals, microtubules drive the migration of the female pronucleus toward the male pronucleus for fertilization. By contrast, the fertilization process in flowering plants is dependent on actin filament (F-actin) dynamics; F-actin, not ...

A myosin XI adaptor, TAPE, is essential for pollen tube elongation in rice. [PDF]
Plant Physiol, 2022 Abstract Pollen tube (PT) elongation is important for double fertilization in angiosperms and affects the seed-setting rate and, therefore, crop productivity. Compared to Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana L.), information on PT elongation in rice (Oryza sativa L.) is limited by the difficulty in obtaining homozygous mutants.

Rab-E and its interaction with myosin XI are essential for polarised cell growth. [PDF]
New Phytol, 2021 Summary The fundamental process of polarised exocytosis requires the interconnected activity of molecular motors trafficking vesicular cargo within a dynamic cytoskeletal network. In plants, few mechanistic details are known about how molecular motors, such as myosin XI, associate with their secretory cargo to support the ubiquitous processes of ...
