A complete inventory of metallochaperone-like proteins containing a predicted HMA domain
in Arabidopsis revealed a large family of 67 proteins. 45 proteins, the HIPPs, have a …

Metallochaperones are key proteins for the safe transport of metallic ions inside the cell.
HIPP s (heavy metal‐associated isoprenylated plant proteins) are metallochaperones that …

In cells, metallochaperones are important proteins that safely transport metal ions. Heavy
metal‐associated isoprenylated plant proteins (HIPPs) are metallochaperones that contain a …

Metallochaperones are a class of unique protein families that was originally found to interact
with cellular metal ions by metal delivery to specific target proteins such as metal enzymes …

Heavy metals are potentially highly toxic for organisms. Plants possess the ability to
minimize damage but the underlying molecular mechanisms have yet to be detailed …

In Arabidopsis halleri, the HMA4 gene has an essential function in Zn/Cd hypertolerance
and hyperaccumulation by mediating root-to-shoot translocation of metals. Constitutive high …

Ion uptake, transport, and sequestration are essential to meet the nutritional requirements for
plant growth and development. Furthermore, regulation of these processes is critical for …

Thlaspi caerulescens is a heavy metal hyperaccumulator plant species that is able to
accumulate extremely high levels of zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) in its shoots (30,000 μ gg …

Arabidopsis thaliana has eight genes encoding members of the type 1B heavy metal–
transporting subfamily of the P-type ATPases. Three of these transporters, HMA2, HMA3 …

Metallothionein (MT) is a cysteine-rich, low-molecular-weight protein that can bind to
cadmium ions and reduce their toxicity to plants. In this study, we cloned the PaMT3-1 gene …
