Plasmodesmata are plant-unique intercellular communication channels that acquired the capacity to dilate significantly to allow the trafficking of proteins and RNA within a symplasmic domain. This ...
One of the most fundamental differences between animal and plant cells is the cell wall—a rigid structure surrounding the plant cells. The cell wall provides strength and structural support, but it ...
In WT, PDLP7 interacts with BG10 through its GnK2-1 domain to restrict BG10 from hydrolyzing callose. Free callose in the cell wall is deposited at the PD neck to maintain a dynamically balanced ...
Traffic lights signal to cars and buses when to stop, slow and go. Much like traffic lights, plant cells send signals to each other to perform photosynthesis to grow or fight off destructive viruses ...
Plant cells communicate via microscopic channels called plasmodesmata that are embedded in their cell walls. For the stem cells in the plants' growing tips, called "meristems," the plasmodesmata are ...
The field of plant “intelligence,” that word being a not-really-correct shorthand for how plants interpret and respond to their environments, has lately been exploding. We understand more and more ...
To communicate with its neighbors, animal cells use gap junctions which are symplasmic connections through which molecules can diffuse from one cell to another. In higher plants, the communication ...
