A recent study reported the discovery of a plant-specific vacuolar trafficking route, i.e., a direct ER- to-vacuole route, through analysis of VHA-a3 subcellular targeting, a key component for the tonoplast V- ATPases. Our recent findings showed that VHA-a3 targets to the tonoplast through a Rab5-mediated but Rab7-independent pathway, shedding new lights on the unconventional vacuolar trafficking route in plant cells.展开更多
