Abstract

The sequestration of enzymes and associated processes into sub-cellular domains, called organelles, is considered a defining feature of eukaryotic cells. However, what leads to specific outcomes and allows a eukaryotic cell to function singularly is the interactivity and exchanges between discrete organelles. Our ability to observe and assess sub-cellular interactions in living plant cells has expanded greatly following the creation of fluorescent fusion proteins targeted to different organelles. Notably, organelle interactivity changes quickly in response to stress and reverts to a normal less interactive state as homeostasis is re-established. Using key observations of some of the organelles present in a plant cell, this chapter provides a brief overview of our present understanding of organelle interactions in plant cells.

Keywords: Fluorescent proteins; Organelles; Plant cell; Subcellular interactions.
