SPR1 and EB1b have complex interactions as they load onto microtubule plus ends and direct polar cell expansion and organ growth in response to directional cues.
Title: The microtubule plus-end tracking proteins SPR1 and EB1b interact to maintain polar cell elongation and directional organ growth in Arabidopsis.

eb1b-1 mutant roots exhibit an increase over wild type in their response to touch... Mutant roots are also hypersensitive to increased levels of mechanical stimulation, revealing the presence of another process that activates the response.
Title: The microtubule associated protein END BINDING 1 represses root responses to mechanical cues.

The results suggest that a plant-specific EB1 subtype has evolved to function preferentially on the spindle microtubules by accumulating in the prophase nucleus.
Title: Nuclear-localized subtype of end-binding 1 protein regulates spindle organization in Arabidopsis.

Data find that antibodies directed against EB1 proteins colocalize with microtubules in roots, and that mutants with reduced expression from EB1B genes have roots that deviate toward the left on vertical or inclined plates.
Title: The microtubule plus-end binding protein EB1 functions in root responses to touch and gravity signals in Arabidopsis.
