Transporters are at the centre of regulatory modules allowing optimal assimilation,
distribution or efflux of substrate molecules. The IRT 1 root metal transporter represents a …

Plant roots forage the soil for iron, the concentration of which can be dramatically lower than
those needed for growth. Soil iron uptake uses the broad metal spectrum IRT1 transporter …

Iron is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. Under low iron
conditions, Arabidopsis plants take up soil iron using the root iron transporter IRT1. In …

Main conclusion IRT1 intracellular dynamics and function are finely controlled through
protein–protein interactions. Abstract In plants, iron uptake from the soil is tightly regulated to …

The past two decades of research on plant iron nutrition have completed the casting of the
major transporters involved in iron uptake from the soil, long-distance transport, and …

In plants, iron uptake from the soil is tightly regulated to ensure optimal growth and
development. Iron absorption in Arabidopsis root epidermal cells requires the IRT1 …

Transporters involved in manganese (Mn) uptake and intracellular Mn homeostasis in
Arabidopsis and rice are well characterized, while much less is known for barley, which is …

Plants take up iron from the soil using the IRON-REGULATED TRANSPORTER 1 (IRT1)
high-affinity iron transporter at the root surface. Sophisticated regulatory mechanisms allow …

Plants are the principal source of iron in most diets, yet iron availability often limits plant
growth. In response to iron deficiency, Arabidopsis roots induce the expression of the …

Iron, an essential nutrient, is not readily available to plants because of its low solubility. In
addition, iron is toxic in excess, catalyzing the formation of hydroxyl radicals that can …
