  • Title: The auxin-binding protein Nt-ERabp1 alone activates an auxin-like transduction pathway.
    Author: Leblanc N, Perrot-Rechenmann C, Barbier-Brygoo H.
    Journal: FEBS Lett; 1999 Apr 16; 449(1):57-60. PubMed ID: 10225428.
    Abstract:
    Hyperpolarization of tobacco protoplasts is amongst the earliest auxin responses described. It has been proposed that the auxin-binding protein, ABP1, or a related protein could be involved in the first step of auxin perception at the plasma membrane. Using for the first time homologous conditions for interaction between the protein Nt-ERabp1 or a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminus and tobacco protoplasts, we have demonstrated that both can induce the hyperpolarization response. The results show that Nt-ERabp1 or the C-terminal peptide alone activates the auxin pathway from the outer face of the plasma membrane.
