Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of cell polarity in plants links endocytosis, auxin distribution and cell fate decisions
Pankaj Dhonukshe,Hirokazu Tanaka,Tatsuaki Goh,Kazuo Ebine,Ari Pekka Mähönen,Kalika Prasad,Ikram Blilou,Niko Geldner,Niko Geldner,Jian Xu,Tomohiro Uemura,Joanne Chory,Takashi Ueda,Akihiko Nakano,Ben Scheres,Jiří Friml +15 more
TL;DR: The results indicate a two-step mechanism for the generation of PIN polar localization and the essential role of endocytosis in this process, which highlights the link between endocyTosis-dependent polarity of individual cells and auxin distribution-dependent cell fate establishment for multicellular patterning.
Journal ArticleDOI
A membrane trafficking pathway regulated by the plant-specific RAB GTPase ARA6.
Kazuo Ebine,Masaru Fujimoto,Yusuke Okatani,Tomoaki Nishiyama,Tatsuaki Goh,Tatsuaki Goh,Emi Ito,Tomoko Dainobu,Aiko Nishitani,Tomohiro Uemura,Masa H. Sato,Hans Thordal-Christensen,Nobuhiro Tsutsumi,Akihiko Nakano,Takashi Ueda +14 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a plant-unique RAB5 protein, ARA6, acts in an endosomal trafficking pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana and provides the first indication of a functional link between a specific RAB and a specific SNARE complex in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
A SNARE Complex Unique to Seed Plants Is Required for Protein Storage Vacuole Biogenesis and Seed Development of Arabidopsis thaliana
Kazuo Ebine,Yusuke Okatani,Tomohiro Uemura,Tatsuaki Goh,Keiko Shoda,Mitsuru Niihama,Miyo Terao Morita,Christoph Spitzer,Marisa S. Otegui,Akihiko Nakano,Takashi Ueda +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the VAMP727 complex mediates the membrane fusion between the prevacuolar compartment and the vacuole and that this process has evolved as an essential step for seed development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conserved Arabidopsis ECHIDNA protein mediates trans-Golgi-network trafficking and cell elongation
Delphine Gendre,Jaesung Oh,Yohann Boutté,Jacob G. Best,Lacey Samuels,Robert Nilsson,Tomohiro Uemura,Alan Marchant,Malcolm J. Bennett,Markus Grebe,Rishikesh P. Bhalerao +10 more
TL;DR: ECH is an evolutionarily conserved component of the TGN with a central role in TGN structure and function and partially complements loss of budding yeast TVP23 function and a Populus ECH complements the Arabidopsis ech mutant, suggesting functional conservation of the genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Qa-SNAREs localized to the trans-Golgi network regulate multiple transport pathways and extracellular disease resistance in plants
Tomohiro Uemura,Hyeran Kim,Chieko Saito,Kazuo Ebine,Takashi Ueda,Paul Schulze-Lefert,Akihiko Nakano +6 more
TL;DR: A study of the SYP4 group (SYP41, SYP42, and SYP43), which represents the plant orthologs of the Tlg2/syntaxin16 Qa-SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) that localizes on the trans-Golgi network in yeast and animal cells, reveals a plant cell-specific higher-order role of the Syd4 group in the protection of chloroplasts
