Disease relevance of RGP1

We confirmed that AtRGP1 produced in Escherichia coli could be reversibly glycosylated using UDP-glucose and UDP-galactose as substrates [1].

High impact information on RGP1

SE-WAP41, a salt-extractable 41-kD wall-associated protein that is associated with walls of etiolated maize (Zea mays) seedlings and is recognized by an antiserum previously reported to label plasmodesmata and the Golgi, was cloned, sequenced, and found to be a class 1 reversibly glycosylated polypeptide ((C1)RGP) [2].
We purified from pea (Pisum sativum) tissue an approximately 40 kDa reversibly glycosylated polypeptide (RGP1) that can be glycosylated by UDP-Glc, UDP-Xyl, or UDP-Gal, and isolated a cDNA encoding it, apparently derived from a single-copy gene (Rgp1) [3].
RGP1 provides a polypeptide marker for Golgi membranes that should be useful in plant membrane studies [3].
A reversibly glycosylated polypeptide (RGP1) possibly involved in plant cell wall synthesis: purification, gene cloning, and trans-Golgi localization [3].
