Understanding myosin functions in plants: are we there yet?

Current opinion in plant biology - 1 Dec 2013

Madison Stephanie L, Nebenführ Andreas

Abstract excerpt

Myosins are motor proteins that drive movements along actin filaments and have long been assumed to be responsible for cytoplasmic streaming in plant cells. This conjecture is now firmly established by genetic analysis in the reference species, Arabidopsis thaliana. This work and similar approaches in the moss, Physcomitrella patens, also established that myosin-driven movements are necessary for cell growth and...
