Arabidopsis villins promote actin turnover at pollen tube tips and facilitate the construction of actin collars.

The Plant cell - 1 May 2013

Qu Xiaolu, Zhang Hua, Xie Yurong, Wang Juan, Chen Naizhi, Huang Shanjin

Abstract excerpt

Apical actin filaments are crucial for pollen tube tip growth. However, the specific dynamic changes and regulatory mechanisms associated with actin filaments in the apical region remain largely unknown. Here, we have investigated the quantitative dynamic parameters that underlie actin filament growth and disappearance in the apical regions of pollen tubes and identified villin as the major player that drives...
