We are upgrading the repository! A content freeze is in effect until December 6th, 2024 - no new submissions will be accepted; however, all content already published will remain publicly available. Please reach out to repository@u.library.arizona.edu with your questions, or if you are a UA affiliate who needs to make content available soon. Note that any new user accounts created after September 22, 2024 will need to be recreated by the user in November after our migration is completed.

| dc.description.abstract | Long-distance signaling is an important process in the development of Arabidopsis thaliana. A leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinase (LRR-RLK), XYLEM INTERMIXED WITH PHLOEM1 a.k.a. C-TERMINALLY ENCODED PEPTIDE RECEPTOR 1 (XIP1/CEPR1), functions in vascular development and has recently been implicated in nitrogen sensing and response. Previous results indicate that XIP1/CEPR1 also interacts with multiple proteins involved in sugar metabolism and transport as well as other metabolic proteins, which indicates a possible role for XIP1/CEPR1 in mediating sugar transport. xip1-1 seeds, which grow slowly in the cold in comparison to Columbia wild-type plants, were previously EMS mutagenized and screened for suppressors of the cold-sensitive phenotype. One of these suppressors, 9-12, maps to the lower region of chromosome V and several possible causative EMS-like mutations have been identified that may link XIP1/CEPR1 to a more general vascular transport role. | |
