Role exocystu v obraně rostlin před patogenem

Sabol, Peter

Exocyst is a protein complex conserved in yeast, animals and plants. It mediates tethering of a secretory vesicle to the plasma membrane in the semifinal step of exocytosis. Several roles of exocyst in the processes of cell polarization in plant cells have been implied, including polarized growth of polen tubes and root hairs, cytokinesis, deposition of seed coat pectin and possibly autophagy. One of the most recent roles of exocyst includes also a response to bacterial and fungal pathogens. Exo70B2 and Exo70H1 subunits were shown to play prominent roles in this respect, with Exo70H1 being responsible for mediating defense against bacterial (Pseudomonas syringae) and Exo70B2 defense against both bacterial and fungal (Blumeria graminis) pathogens. Recently, new data appeared indicating the interaction between Exo70B1 and RIN4 and Exo70A1 and NOI6, respectively. RPM-1 interacting protein 4 (RIN4) is a well known negative regulator of both basal and effector-triggered resistance. This thesis shows interaction between NOI6 and several exocyst subunits, confirming previous data. I show here that exocyst subunints interact specifically with N terminus of NOI6 protein and that this interaction is lost in the shorter version of NOI6 mimicking AvrRpt2 cleavage. Since AvrRpt2 is an effector protein from...
