Plant lipid rafts : from proteic composition to physiological roles
International audience; A large body of evidence supports the existence, in membrane from animal and yeast cells, of functional microdomains playing important roles in protein sorting, signal transduction, or infection by pathogens (1). We demonstrated the presence, in plants, of detergent resistant fractions isolated from plasma membrane, with a lipidic composition similar to animal microdomains (2). Electrophoresis experiments indicated that these fractions were able to recruit a specific set of plasma membrane proteins and exclude others. We used mass spectrometry to give an extensive description of a tobacco plasma membrane microdomains. This led to the identification of 145 proteins wh…
