Ligand-receptor pairs in plant peptide signaling.
Extensive studies on plant signaling molecules over the past decade indicate that plant cell-to-cell communication, as is the case with animal systems, makes use of small peptide signals and specific receptors. To date, four peptide-ligand-receptor pairs have been identified and shown to be involved in a variety of processes. Systemin and phytosulfokine (PSK), the first and second signaling pep...
متن کاملA tale of two systems: peptide ligand-receptor pairs in plant development.
Plants have developed intercellular signaling systems that use secreted peptides and plasma membrane-localized receptor-like kinases (RLKs). Although there has been little experimental evidence linking specific peptide ligands to receptors, recent studies of several ligand-receptor pairs have revealed their increasingly important roles in cell-cell communications during plant development. In th...
متن کاملTools and Strategies to Match Peptide-Ligand Receptor Pairs.
Peptide signals have emerged as an important class of regulators in cell-to-cell communication in plants. Several families of small, secreted proteins with a conserved C-terminal Pro-rich motif have been identified as functional peptide signals in Arabidopsis thaliana. These proteins are presumed to be trimmed proteolytically and undergo posttranslational modifications, such as hydroxylation of...
متن کاملPeptide Signaling in Plant Development
Cell-to-cell communication is integral to the evolution of multicellularity. In plant development, peptide signals relay information coordinating cell proliferation and differentiation. These peptides are often encoded by gene families and bind to corresponding families of receptors. The precise spatiotemporal expression of signals and their cognate receptors underlies developmental patterning,...
متن کاملOxytocic plant cyclotides as templates for peptide G protein-coupled receptor ligand design.
Cyclotides are plant peptides comprising a circular backbone and three conserved disulfide bonds that confer them with exceptional stability. They were originally discovered in Oldenlandia affinis based on their use in traditional African medicine to accelerate labor. Recently, cyclotides have been identified in numerous plant species of the coffee, violet, cucurbit, pea, potato, and grass fami...
