This project investigates the role of a specific kinesin protein in regulating cell size and cell wall synthesis in plants. By studying mutations in Arabidopsis, the research aims to uncover the molecular mechanisms that control cell expansion, which is vital for both plant growth and economic applications in materials…
Cell size is a crucial determinant of overall organ size.
The size of a cell can be influenced by various hormones; it depends on the identity of the cell; and it is positively correlated with the cell’s ploidy level.
However, the molecular mechanisms that determine when cell expansion stops to ensure an appropriate cell size are poorly understood.
In plants, the presence of a cell wall means that the extent of cell expansion, and thus the amount of cell wall synthesized, is also of paramount ec…
