protein targeting to starch PTST | protein targeting to starch, PTST, is required for localising granule-bound starch synthase to starch granules and for normal amylose synthesis. PTST is a plastidial protein possessing an N-terminal coiled coil domain and a C-terminal carbohydrate binding module. Enzyme GBSS physically interacts with protein PTST via a coiled coil. The CBM48 domain of PTST, which mediates its interaction with starch granules, is also required for correct GBSS localisation | Arabidopsis thaliana |

recombinant expression of C-terminally HA and cyan fluorescent protein (CFP) tandem tagged wild-type nd mutant enzymes in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves via Agrobactrium tumefaciens transformation and in Nicotiana tabacum epidermal cells. Wild-type GBSS enzyme is only detected in the immunoprecipitate when TAP-tagged PTST is coexpressed, confirming the protein-protein interaction | Arabidopsis thaliana |

PTST is a plastidial protein possessing an N-terminal coiled coil domain and a C-terminal carbohydrate binding module, the CBM domain of PTST, which mediates its interaction with starch granules, is required for correct enzyme GBSS localisation. PTST remains in the stroma impliing that it interacts only transiently with starch during the GBSS localisation | Arabidopsis thaliana | - |

malfunction | Arabidopsis thaliana ptst mutants synthesise amylose-free starch and are phenotypically similar to mutants lacking GBSS. Mutation of the CBM domain of PTST causes GBSS to remain in the plastid stroma | Arabidopsis thaliana |
physiological function | Arabidopsis thaliana mutants lacking plastidial protein PTST synthesise amylose-free starch and are phenotypically similar to mutants lacking granule-bound starch synthase GBSS. PTST mutant starch granules show a dramatic reduction of GBSS protein. GBSS physically interacts with PTST via a coiled coil. The carbohydrate binding module of PTST, which mediates its interaction with starch granules, is also required for correct GBSS localisation. Arabidopsis GBSS requires the presence of Arabidopsis PTST to localise to starch granules. Mutation of the carbohydrate binding module of PTST causes GBSS to remain in the plastid stroma | Arabidopsis thaliana |
