In higher plants, heavy metal transporters are responsible for metal uptake, translocation
and homeostasis. These metals include essential metals such as zinc (Zn) or manganese …

Background and aims Brassica napus (B. napus), one of the most important oil crop species,
is highly tolerant to and accumulates high amounts of cadmium (Cd). Many iron transporters …

In plants, metal transporters are responsible for metal uptake, translocation and
homeostasis. These metals include essential nutrients such as zinc (Zn) and manganese …

The zinc-regulated transporters, iron-regulated transporter-like proteins (ZIPs), the natural
resistance and macrophage proteins (NRAMP), the heavy metal ATPases (HMAs) and the …

Cadmium (Cd) is a biologically non-essential and phytotoxic heavy metal pollutant. In this
study, we estimated the Cd accumulation potential of Indian mustard and identified factors …

Main conclusion The role of transporters in subcellular metal transport is of great
significance for plants in coping with heavy metal stress and maintaining their proper growth …

Metal tolerance proteins (MTPs) encompass plant membrane divalent cation transporters to
specifically participate in heavy metal stress resistance and mineral acquisition. However …

Several hyperaccumulator plant species especially the species in Brassicaceae have been
extensively investigated for their metal accumulation and detoxification. For example …

The specific transport of metal ions, mediated by membrane-localized metal transporters, is
of fundamental importance in all eukaryotes. Genome-wide analysis of metal transporters …

Environmental contamination of heavy metals is now becoming increasingly a concern and
a significant problem due to its harmful effects worldwide. The plant-meditated approach is …
