This project investigates the mechanisms behind the formation of the Casparian strip in plant roots, a crucial barrier for nutrient and water regulation. It aims to identify co-receptors and transducers involved in the receptor/ligand signaling pathway, enhancing understanding of plant barrier engineering.
Plants have developed sophisticated barriers in various tissues and organs to safeguard integrity.
To monitor barrier integrity, plants appear to have evolved similar systems that share signalling modules.
The receptor/ligand signalling pathway initiated by SGN3/CIFs establishes the integrity of the Casparian strip (CS), a root diffusion barrier that is essential for controlling nutrient and water homeostasis.
The CS starts off as aligned microdomains that eventually fuse to forge a continuous b…
