説明

<jats:title>Significance</jats:title> <jats:p> Nucleotide sugars are donor substrates for the formation of glycan modifications, which are important for the function of many macromolecules such as proteins and lipids. Although most of the glycosylation reactions occur in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi of eukaryotic cells, nucleotide sugar activation occurs in the cytosol and specific transporters must carry these molecules across the membrane. We identified REPRESSOR OF CYTOKININ DEFICIENCY 1 (ROCK1) as an ER-localized transporter of UDP-GlcNAc and UDP-GalNAc in plants. In contrast to animals, nothing is known about the function of the two respective sugar residues in the plant ER. We demonstrate that ROCK1-mediated transport plays a role in the ER-associated protein quality control and loss of <jats:italic>ROCK1</jats:italic> enhances cytokinin responses by suppressing the activity of cytokinin-degrading CKX proteins. </jats:p>
