Auxin-induced signaling protein nanoclustering contributes to cell polarity formation
Abstract
The significance of protein nanoclustering in cell polarization is unclear. Here Pan et al. show that auxin-induced TMK1/sterol nanoclustering as well as microtubule-based positive feedback regulation of the TMK1/sterol nanoclusters is critical for cell polarity formation in Arabidopsis.
