How to lock a specific row for write or read purpose?

Is there a way to lock a specific row for a specific connection for writing or reading purposes? Until release that lock or a specific time expire that row should have limited access for other connections. Is there a way to enforce this locking mechanism in MariaDB?

I believe this should be doable by executing a SELECT ... FOR UPDATE statement: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/select/#lock-in-share-mode-and-for-update-clauses
