Plant cells orchestrate an array of molecular mechanisms for maintaining plasmatic
concentrations of essential heavy metal (HM) ions, for example, iron, zinc and copper, within …

Iron is one of the most important micronutrients for plant growth and development. It
functions as the enzyme cofactor or component of electron transport chains in various vital …

Iron (Fe) is an essential mineral nutrient that severely affects the growth, yield and nutritional
quality of plants if not supplied in sufficient quantities. Here, we report that a short C-terminal …

Heavy metal toxicity is one of the major concerns for agriculture and health. Accumulation of
toxic heavy metals at high concentrations in edible parts of crop plants is the primary cause …

Main conclusion Nutrient transporter genes could be a potential candidate for improving
crop plants, with enhanced nutrient uptake leading to increased crop yield by providing …

Iron (Fe) homeostasis is crucial for all living organisms. In mammals, an integrated
posttranscriptional mechanism couples the regulation of both Fe deficiency and Fe excess …

Under low iron (Fe) availability, plants transcriptionally induce various genes responsible for
Fe uptake and translocation to obtain adequate amounts of Fe. Although transcription factors …

Iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), and copper (Cu) are essential micronutrient mineral
elements for living organisms, as they regulate essential cellular processes, such as …

Iron (Fe) is an essential transition metal. Based on its redox-active nature under biological
conditions, various Fe compounds serve as cofactors in redox enzymes. In plants, the …

Biochemical and electrophysiological studies on plant vacuolar transporters became
feasible in the late 1970s and early 1980s, when methods to isolate large quantities of intact …
