摘要: 细胞是生物体结构和功能的基本单位, 有膜或无膜包裹的细胞器在细胞内特定的空间各司其职。然而, 无膜细胞器的形成机制和功能仍有待进一步解析。研究表明, 液-液相分离(LLPS)可以使细胞内的特定分子聚集形成凝聚体, 进而发挥重要作用。随着植物中LLPS研究的不断深入, 相分离形成的凝聚体在植物生长发育和胁迫应答过程中的作用备受关注。该文对蛋白液-液相分离调节植物生长发育以及胁迫应答的研究进展进行综述, 为深入研究LLPS在植物细胞中的工作机制提供参考。

Abstract: Cells are basic units of structure and function for organisms, in which membranous and membraneless organelles exert their respective functions in a given space. However, the mechanism underlying the formation and function of membraneless organelles still requires further investigation. It has been shown that liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins may provide a specific way for biomacromolecules within cells to aggregate and form agglomerates, then proceed to play important roles. With increasing reports on LLPS in plants, great interest has been in exploring the roles of phase separation-forming agglutinates in plant growth and development and immune processes. In this review, we mainly focus on the progress of current studies on the role of protein liquid-liquid phase separation in regulating plant growth and development as well as stress responses, which may provide references for further studies on the mechanism of LLPS in plant cells.

Key words: liquid-liquid phase separation, membraneless organelles, biomolecular condensates
