Extracellular Vacuole-derived bodies (EVacs) mediate RNA secretion in plants
Extracellular RNAs are found in the plant extracellular space, but how they are exported from cells remains unclear. We found that the plant vacuole is a major source of extracellular RNA and identified a class of large extracellular vacuole-derived bodies, which we termed EVacs, that are key mediators of this transport. EVacs are marked by the vacuolar membrane (tonoplast) proteins {gamma}-TIP…
