Maturation processes and structures of small secreted peptides in plants
In the past decade, small secreted peptides have proven to be essential for various aspects of plant growth and development, including the maintenance of certain stem cell populations. Most small secreted peptides identified in plants to date are recognized by membrane-localized receptor kinases, the largest family of receptor proteins in the plant genome. This peptide-receptor interaction is e...
متن کاملSmall cysteine-rich peptides resembling antimicrobial peptides have been under-predicted in plants.
Multicellular organisms produce small cysteine-rich antimicrobial peptides as an innate defense against pathogens. While defensins, a well-known class of such peptides, are common among eukaryotes, there are other classes restricted to the plant kingdom. These include thionins, lipid transfer proteins and snakins. In earlier work, we identified several divergent classes of small putatively secr...
متن کاملSignaling Peptides in Plants
In multicellular organisms, growth and development need to be precisely coordinated and are strongly relying on positional information. Positional control is achieved through exchanges of molecular messages between cells and tissues by means of cell-to-cell communication mechanisms. Especially in plants, accurate and well-controlled cell-to-cell communication networks are essential because of t...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Peptides from Plants
Plant antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have evolved differently from AMPs from other life forms. They are generally rich in cysteine residues which form multiple disulfides. In turn, the disulfides cross-braced plant AMPs as cystine-rich peptides to confer them with extraordinary high chemical, thermal and proteolytic stability. The cystine-rich or commonly known as cysteine-rich peptides (CRPs) o...
متن کاملSmall RNAs are raising big expectations.
F ive years ago there were little more than 200 known microRNAs (miRNAs) — small regulatory nucleic acids that bind to complementary sites on mRNAs and prevent their translation into protein. Today, that number has swelled to more than 700 and counting. The explosion in knowledge about these small, noncoding RNAs, which appear to be evolutionarily ancient but were discovered less than two decad...
