Changes in root architecture, induction of root-based transport systems and associations with beneficial soil microorganisms allow plants to maintain optimal nutrient content in the face of changing ...
Sulfate transporters are integral membrane proteins controlling the flux of sulfate (SO₄2−) entering the cells and subcellular compartments across the membrane lipid bilayers. Sulfate uptake is a ...
This illustration shows how the membrane trafficking protein VAMP72 gradually changed during plant evolution to give rise to VAMP727, which functions in transporting storage proteins to vacuoles. The ...
A research team has revealed the molecular steps that led to the emergence of this plant-specific vacuolar transport system. Their work shows that the acquisition of this pathway was driven by the ...
