Abstract

AbstractPosttranslational modifications of plasma membrane (PM) proteins are essential for a variety of processes that take place at the interface between cells and their environment. A plethora of PM protein modifications have been identified, several of which have been characterized for their role in the regulation of PM-protein fate. In this chapter, we will focus on a number of selected protein modifications that have been shown to affect protein targeting. Both reversible and irreversible covalent protein modifications appear to affect distinct steps in protein trafficking, and regulate protein association with hydrophobic environments, thereby defining the impact of those proteins on a large variety of plant growth responses.KeywordsPollen TubeRoot HairLipid ModificationElongate Pollen TubeCellulose DepositionThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
