Illuminating traffic control for cell-division planes

Elife. 2014 Apr 8:3:e02747. doi: 10.7554/eLife.02747.

Abstract

When a plant cell divides, four related proteins control the trafficking of vesicles and ensure that cargo that is normally recycled to the plasma membrane is instead re-routed to the plane of cell division.

Keywords: ARF-GEF; cell division; post-Golgi trafficking; recycling, endocytosis; regulation of vesicle traffic; secretion.
