ABSTRACT

Land plants encode for a number of AGC1 kinases that are evolutionarily derived
from the phototropin blue light receptor serine/threonine kinases. The D6PK, D6PK-
LIKE and PAX AGC1 kinases polarly localize at the plasma membrane where they
activate the polarly localized PIN auxin efflux carriers by phosphorylation. The rapid
intracellular trafficking to and from the plasma membrane renders AGC1 kinases
dynamic regulators of PIN-mediated transport and loss of AGC1 kinases function
results in defects in auxin transport-dependent processes like embryo development,
root and lateral root development, and tropic responses, to name a few. We have
studied the interplay between the different AGC1 kinase family members at the
developmental level and will present evidence that D6PK and PAX kinases are
functionally diverse and cooperate, in a non-additive manner, in the regulation of
protophloem and vascular development. We have further uncovered the regulatory
mechanism responsible for the intracellular trafficking and targeting of AGC1 kinases
to the polar plasma membrane.
