Here, we showed that disruption of the gene encoding a glycosyltransferase-like protein, ABA INSENSITIVE 8 (ABI8)/ELONGATION EFFECTIVE 1 (ELD1)/KOBITO1 (KOB1), caused short-hypocotyl elongation under all light conditions examined and even in darkness. We found that the ABI8 transcript level ...
Here, we describe a novel mutant of KOBITO1 in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). The kob1-3 mutation leads to the formation of stornata clusters in the erll erll background but not in the wild type. Cell-to-cell mobility assays demonstrated an increase in intercellular protein trafficking ...
Previously, KOBITO1 has been proposed to function in cellulose biosynthesis. Our data demonstrate that disruption of cellulose biosynthesis in the erI1 erl2 background does not lead to the formation of stomata clusters, indicating that cellulose biosynthesis is not a major determining factor for ...
