Profilin is essential for tip growth in the moss Physcomitrella patens.

The Plant cell - 1 Nov 2007

Vidali Luis, Augustine Robert C, Kleinman Ken P, Bezanilla Magdalena

Abstract excerpt

The actin cytoskeleton is critical for tip growth in plants. Profilin is the main monomer actin binding protein in plant cells. The moss Physcomitrella patens has three profilin genes, which are monophyletic, suggesting a single ancestor for plant profilins. Here, we used RNA interference (RNAi)...
