EXO70
Welcome to EXO70 !
EXO70 is one of the eight protein subunits in the exocrine complex, with the seven other ones (SEC3, SEC5, SEC6, SEC8, SEC10, SEC15 and EXO84), is involved in the tethering process of the membrane vesicles at the budding site. The tethering process is the third step (budding, transport, tethering, fusion) in the material exchange process of different membrane structures in the cell, which is involved in the initial contact process of the transport vesicles and the target membrane and is a key step in regulating extracellular secretion. EXO70 is the pivotal protein subunit of exocyst, which has a very crucial role in enhancing the shielding effect of the cell wall, resisting abiotic and hormonal stresses.
