LIPID DROPLET PROTEIN OF SEEDS is involved in the control of lipid droplet size in Arabidopsis seeds and seedlings
Description:
Article identifies LIPID DROPLET PROTEIN OF SEEDS (LDPS) as a seed‑specific, low‑abundance lipid‑droplet protein whose amphipathic α‑helix/proline‑hairpin motif targets LDs and whose separate interaction domain binds OLEOSIN 1. Article demonstrates that LDPS regulates LD size, seed oil content, and LD–LD fusion in Arabidopsis, functioning in opposition and cooperation with OLEO1 to control LD morphology during seed development and postgerminative growth.
