Sensing and transducing forces in plants with MSL10 and DEK1 mechanosensors.
FEBS Letters 2018 June
Mechanosensitive (MS) channels behave as microprobes that transduce mechanical tension into electric and ion signals. The plasma membrane anion-permeable channel AtMSL10 belongs to the first family of MS channels (MscS-LIKE) that has been characterized in Arabidopsis thaliana. In the same membrane, a rapidly activated calcium MS channel activity (RMA) associated with the presence of the DEFECTIVE KERNEL1 (AtDEK1) protein has been recently described. In this Review, based on the comparison of the specific properties of AtMSL10 and RMA, we put forward hypotheses on the mechanism of activation of these two channels, their respective roles in signalling and also raise the question of the molecular identity of RMA. Finally, we propose functions for these two channels within the context of plant mechanotransduction.
