ABSTRACT
In plants, robust defense depends on the efficient and resilient trafficking supply chains to the site of pathogen attack. Though the importance of intracellular trafficking in plant immunity has been well established, a lack of clarity remains regarding the contribution of the various trafficking pathways in transporting immune-related proteins. We have recently identified a trans-Golgi network protein, TGN-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN 1 (TGNap1), which functionally links post-Golgi vesicles with the cytoskeleton to transport immunity-related proteins in the model plant species Arabidopsis thaliana. We propose new hypotheses on the various functional implications of TGNap1 and then elaborate on the surprising heterogeneity of TGN vesicles during immunity revealed by the discovery of TGNap1 and other TGN-associated proteins in recent years.
