Pd-associated proteins (PdAPs) involved in regulation of Pd permeability.

Protein Function/Description Signal Sequence Predicted N-Glycosylation Sites Pd Localization Protein Relocation After Stress Impact References
Pd non-secretory proteins
Actin, myosin and tubulin Actin-myosin filaments and tubulin are localized within the Pd cytoplasmic sleeve and negatively control Pd permeability No No Cytoplasmic sleeves in the Pd cavity No [48,49,50]
A. thaliana calreticulin-1 (AtCRT1) (UniProt O04151) Ca2+-sequestering protein chaperone and ER protein that negatively control Pd permeability Yes Asn59, Asn154, Asn399 Associates with the desmotubule Yes [51,52,53]
Tobacco non-cell autonomous pathway protein (NCAPP) (UniProt Q947H5) NCAPP has homology to aldose 1-epimerase; positively controls Pd permeability and PME/methanol production Yes Asn76 and Asn100 Localizes in the ER N/A [54,55]
Remorin Associates with PM raft-like structures and probably serves as a negative regulator of Pd permeability. Antagonist of Potato virus X triple gene block protein 1 No No In the cytosolic surface of the Pd plasma membrane N/A [56]
A. thaliana reticulons, AtRTNLB3 (UniProt Q9SH59) and AtRTNLB6 (UniProt Q6DBN4) ER-localized proteins with three TM domains that negatively control Pd permeability No No Accumulates in the desmotubule N/A [57,58]
Arabidopsis synaptotagmin SYTA (AtSYTA) (UniProt - Q9SKR2) ER-PM tethering and endocytic recycling No No Interacts with TMV movement protein (MP) Pd localization signal (PLS) for cell-to-cell transport and participates in the formation of virus replication sites Suggested that SYTA relocates to the Pd cavity after TMV infection [59,60,61,62]
Pd secretory proteins
A. thaliana (1,3)-β-glucanase 1 (AtBG1) (UniProt - Q9M2M0) Callose-degrading enzymes that positively control Pd permeability Yes Asn291 Colocalizes with callose near Pd orifices No [36,63,64]
A. thaliana (1,3)-β-glucanase 2 (AtBG2) (UniProt P33157) Yes No Colocalizes with callose near Pd orifices in the extracellular space AtBG2 is not delivered to the extracellular space in TMV-infected cells, but associates with viral MP in Pd cytoplasmic sleeve [36,64]
A. thaliana (1,3)-β-glucanase 3
(AtBG3) (UniProt F4j270)
Yes No Constitutive Pd-associated enzyme but not stress-regulated No [36,64]
*A. thaliana β-1,3-glucanase_putative Pd-associated protein (AtBG_ppap) (UniProt Q9FHX5) Yes No Localizes to the Pd neck region No [35,36,65]
A. thaliana Class 1 reversibly glycosylated polypeptide (AtC1RGP) (UniProt Q9SRT9) AtC1RGP acts as a negative Pd regulator. Despite having no signal sequence, it is found in the GA and ultimately in the Pd No No N/A [66,67,68]
A. thaliana Callose synthase (CalS) (UniProt Q9AUE0) Callose-synthesizing enzyme encoded by glucan synthase-like (GSL) gene that negatively controls Pd permeability No
(needs exocyst-positive organelle (EXPO)-mediated secretion for Pd localization)
No CalS localizes at callose depositions No [36,37,69]
A. thaliana formin-like protein 1 (UniProt Q9SE97) and 2 (UniProt O22824)
(AtFH1 and AtFH2)
Negatively regulates Pd permeability by interacting with actin filaments Yes Multiple Asn sites Localizes in the Pd cavity and interacts with actin N/A [70,71]
A. thaliana β-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase-like enzyme (GnTL) (UniProt Q9SUZ8) Interacts with calreticulin and probably serves as a negative regulator of Pd permeability Yes Asn287 and Asn316 Colocalizes with callose-binding protein near Pd orifices N/A [72]
*A. thaliana Pd callose-binding proteins 1,2 and 3 (PDCB1-3)
(At5g61130)
Pd callose-binding protein that negatively controls Pd permeability Yes Asn154 and Asn179 Localizes to the Pd neck No [73,74]
A. thaliana Pd-located protein 1 (PDLP1)
(UniProt Q8GXV7)
Membrane receptor-like protein with two extracellular DUF26 domains. PDLP1 overexpression causes restricted cell-to-cell trafficking. Acts as a negative Pd regulator by promoting callose deposition. Stimulates the transport of viruses that use tubule-guided movement by redundantly interacting with tubule-forming MPs within Pds Yes No PDLP1 is targeted to Pd via the Brefeldin A–sensitive secretory pathway and resides at Pd with its C-terminus in the cytoplasmic space and its N-terminus in the apoplast. No [75,76,77,78]
A. thaliana Pd located protein 5 (PDLP5)
(UniProt Q8GUJ2)
A member of the PDLP family that has 30% amino acid sequence identity to PDLP1. Contains sphingolipid binding motif in the TMD. Acts as a negative Pd regulator by promoting callose deposition. Delays systemic movement of TMV Yes Asn69 and Asn132 PDLP5 localizes inside the central Pd region similar to TMV MP. However, PDLP5/MP overlap is not complete Transmembrane secretory protein with ectopic localization [79,80,81,82]
Tobacco pectin methylesterase (PME)
(UniProt Q9LEBO)
Non-direct regulator of Pd permeability that participates in the de-methylesterification of cell wall HG through the formation of methanol Yes Asn43, Asn101 and Asn220 in proPME Immunogold localization of PME is preferentially around Pd No [83,84]
