Plant Endoplasmic Reticulum-Plasma Membrane Contact Sites (2016)
Journal Article
Wang, P., Hawes, C., & Hussey, P. (2017). Plant Endoplasmic Reticulum-Plasma Membrane Contact Sites. Trends in Plant Science, 22(4), 289-297. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tplants.2016.11.008

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) acts as a superhighway with multiple sideroads that connects the different membrane compartments including the ER to the plasma membrane (PM). ER–PM contact sites (EPCSs) are a common feature in eukaryotic organisms, bu... Read More about Plant Endoplasmic Reticulum-Plasma Membrane Contact Sites.

Arabidopsis SYT1 maintains stability of cortical endoplasmic reticulum networks and VAP27-1-enriched endoplasmic reticulum–plasma membrane contact sites (2016)
Journal Article
Siao, W., Wang, P., Voigt, B., Hussey, P., & Baluska, F. (2016). Arabidopsis SYT1 maintains stability of cortical endoplasmic reticulum networks and VAP27-1-enriched endoplasmic reticulum–plasma membrane contact sites. Journal of Experimental Botany, 67(21), 6161-6171. https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/erw381

Arabidopsis synaptotagmin 1 (SYT1) is localized on the endoplasmic reticulum–plasma membrane (ER–PM) contact sites in leaf and root cells. The ER–PM localization of Arabidopsis SYT1 resembles that of the extended synaptotagmins (E-SYTs) in animal cel...

Arabidopsis NAP1 regulates the formation of autophagosomes (2016)
Journal Article
Wang, P., Richardson, C., Hawes, C., & Hussey, P. (2016). Arabidopsis NAP1 regulates the formation of autophagosomes. Current Biology, 26(15), 2060-2069. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2016.06.008

The SCAR/WAVE complex is required for ARP2/3-mediated actin nucleation, and these complexes are highly conserved in plants and animals [1 and 2]. Proteins from the SCAR/WAVE complex have been found to be membrane associated in plants [3]. Using fluor... Read More about Arabidopsis NAP1 regulates the formation of autophagosomes.

Plant VAP27 proteins: domain characterization, intracellular localization and role in plant development (2016)
Journal Article
Wang, P., Richardson, C., Hawkins, T. J., Sparkes, I., Hawes, C., & Hussey, P. J. (2016). Plant VAP27 proteins: domain characterization, intracellular localization and role in plant development. New Phytologist, 210(4), 1311-1326. https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.13857

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is connected to the plasma membrane (PM) through the plant-specific NETWORKED protein, NET3C, and phylogenetically conserved vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated proteins (VAPs). Ten VAP homologues (VAP27-1 to... Read More about Plant VAP27 proteins: domain characterization, intracellular localization and role in plant development.
