Regulation of Vacuole Fusion in Stomata by Dephosphorylation of the HOPS subunit VPS39

Anne-Marie Pullen, Grant T. Billings, Charles Hodgens, Gisele White, Belinda Sena Akpa, Marcela Rojas‐Pierce

This study identifies phosphorylation of VPS39 as critical for regulating vacuole fusion in stomata, linking it to environmental cues and stomatal opening.

Model-based inference of a plant-specific dual role for HOPS in regulating guard cell vacuole fusion

Charles Hodgens, D T Flaherty, Anne-Marie Pullen, Imran Khan, Nolan J English, L. Gillan, Marcela Rojas‐Pierce, Belinda Sena Akpa

The paper develops a quantitative model of vacuole fusion dynamics in plant guard cells to predict a dual role for HOPS in regulating SNARE complex formation and activity.
