AB Plant synaptotagmins (SYTs) are resident proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). They are characterized by an N-terminal transmembrane region and C2 domains at the C-terminus, which tether the ER to the plasma membrane (PM). In addition to their tethering role, SYTs contain a lipid-harboring SMP domain, essential for shuttling lipids between the ER and the PM. There is now abundant literature on Arabidopsis SYT1, the best characterized family member, which link it to biotic and abiotic responses as well as to ER morphology. Here, we review the current knowledge of SYT members, focusing on their role in stress, and discuss how these roles can be related to their tethering and lipid transport functions. Finally, we contextualize this information aboutSYTs with their homologs, the yeast tricalbins and the mammalian extended synaptotagmins.
