Myosin VIII associates with microtubule ends and together with actin plays a role in guiding plant cell division.

eLife - 23 Sept 2014

Wu Shu-Zon, Bezanilla Magdalena

Abstract excerpt

Plant cells divide using the phragmoplast, a microtubule-based structure that directs vesicles secretion to the nascent cell plate. The phragmoplast forms at the cell center and expands to reach a specified site at the cell periphery, tens or hundreds of microns distant. The mechanism responsible for guiding the phragmoplast remains largely unknown. Here, using both moss and tobacco, we show that myosin VIII...
