Seeds that store proteins in protein storage vacuoles are attractive bioreactors for producing and storing large amounts of pharmaceutical proteins. However, foreign proteins expressed in transgenic plants are subjected to the delivery and modification processes present within plant cells. Here, it is demonstrated that unique membrane sequences deliver a yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) to the seed protein storage vacuoles in transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants, where the YFP is then separated from its membrane anchors. This precise targeting and separation is required for the successful delivery of useful proteins to seed protein storage vacuoles for their stable accumulation in transgenic crops.

Storage Vacuole

We identify new organelles associated with the vacuolar system in plant cells. These organelles are defined biochemically by their internal content of three integral membrane proteins: a chimeric reporter protein that moves there directly from the ER; a specific tonoplast intrinsic protein; and a novel receptor-like RING-H2 protein that traffics through the Golgi apparatus. Highly conserved homologues of the latter are expressed in animal cells. In a developmentally regulated manner, the organelles are taken up into vacuoles where, in seed protein storage vacuoles, they form a membrane-containing crystalloid. The uptake and preservation of the contents of these organelles in vacuoles represents a unique mechanism for compartmentalization of protein and lipid for storage.
