Abstract	The exocyst, conserved from yeast to plants to mammals, is a hetero-octameric complex that mediates tethering of secretory vesicles to designated sites on the plasma membrane during polarized exocytosis. Because structural studies of the intact exocyst complex have been greatly limited by the low yields of purified proteins, many aspects of the exocyst functions remain poorly understood. Here, we present the protocols for the isolation and purification of the recombinant and the native plant exocyst complex. Given the known diversification of the exocyst subunits in plants, our protocols will likely open the possibility of unraveling the functional significance of these subunits in the context of the fully assembled exocyst complex.

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 September 2017.

All research outputs

#20,446,373

of 23,001,641 outputs

Outputs from Methods in molecular biology

#9,934

of 13,154 outputs

Outputs of similar age

#356,140

of 421,214 outputs

Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology

#842

of 1,074 outputs

Altmetric has tracked 23,001,641 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.

So far Altmetric has tracked 13,154 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.

Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 421,214 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.

We're also able to compare this research output to 1,074 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
