LITERATURE
phosphoprotein
AtCesA7 is phosphorylated in vivo at two serine residues in a region of hyper-variability between the cellulose synthase catalytic subunits. Full length endogenous CesA7 is degraded via a proteasome dependant pathway in whole plant extracts. Phosphorylation of the catalytic subunits may target them for degradation via a proteasome dependant pathway. This is a possible mechanism by which plants regulate the relative levels of the three proteins whose specific interaction are required to form an active cellulose synthase complex
