چکیده
|
How cell shape is controlled is a fundamental question in developmental biology,but the genetic and molecular mechanisms that determine cell shape are largely unknown. arabidopsis trichomes have been used as a good model system to investigate cell shape at the single-cell level. here we describe the trichome cell shape 1 (tcs1) mutants with the reduced trichome branch number in arabidopsis. tcs1 encodes a coiled-coil domain-containing protein. pharmacological analyses and observations of microtubule dynamics show that tcs1 influences the stability of microtubules. biochemical analyses and live-cell imaging indicate that tcs1 binds to microtubules and promotes the assembly of microtubules. further results reveal that tcs1 physically associates with kcbp/zwichel,a microtubule motor involved in the regulation of trichome branch number. genetic analyses indicate that kcbp/zwi is epistatic to tcs1 with respect to trichome branch number. thus,our findings define a novel genetic and molecular mechanism by which tcs1 interacts with kcbp to regulate trichome cell shape by influencing the stability of microtubules. © 2016 chen et al.
