| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nucleus is most distinctive and important organelles for all eukaryotes. It plays a key role in maintenance and inheritance of genetic materials. In plants, it has been reported that nuclei vary their size and shape during cellular development and move very actively in response to environmental signal. However, little is known about the mechanisms underlying plant nuclear dynamics. In this study, we focused following projects; 1) nuclear movement in response to light, 2) molecular mechanisms underlying formation of nuclear envelope, 3) nuclear pore-mediated defense against pathogens. By combining different approaches including, genetics, imaging, and proteomics, we revealed molecular mechanisms of plant nuclear dynamics. We found that plants have unique systems supporting nuclear dynamics for response to environmental stimuli.
