text: The generation of asymmetry, at both cellular and tissue level, is one of
the most essential capabilities of all eukaryotic organisms. It mediates basically
all multicellular development ranging from embryogenesis and de novo organ formation
till responses to various environmental stimuli. In plants, the awe-inspiring
number of such processes is regulated by phytohormone auxin and its directional,
cell-to-cell transport. The mediators of this transport, PIN auxin transporters,
are asymmetrically localized at the plasma membrane, and this polar localization
determines the directionality of intercellular auxin flow. Thus, auxin transport
contributes crucially to the generation of local auxin gradients or maxima, which
instruct given cell to change its developmental program. Here, we introduce and
discuss the molecular components and cellular mechanisms regulating the generation
and maintenance of cellular PIN polarity, as the general hallmarks of cell polarity
in plants.
