Photosynthetic organisms convert light energy into chemical energy stored in carbohydrates.
To perform this process, an adequate supply of essential mineral elements, such as iron, is …

Acyl-CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT, EC 2.3. 1.20) catalyzes the last reaction in
the acyl-CoA-dependent biosynthesis of triacylglycerol (TAG). DGAT activity resides mainly …

Iron (Fe) is one of the essential micronutrients required by both plants and animals. In
humans, Fe deficiency causes anemia, the most prevalent nutritional disorder. Most people …

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 …

Iron (Fe) is essential for life because of its role in protein cofactors. Photosynthesis, in
particular photosynthetic electron transport, has a very high demand for Fe cofactors. Fe is …

Iron is an essential nutrient for plants, but excess iron is toxic due to its catalytic role in the
formation of hydroxyl radicals. Thus, iron uptake is highly regulated and induced only under …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient whose availability is limiting in many soils. During Fe
deficiency, plants alter the expression of many genes to increase Fe uptake, distribution, and …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. Fe availability
affects crops' productivity and the quality of their derived products and thus human nutrition …

In concert with oxygen, soil alkalinity strongly restricts the availability of iron, an essential
nutrient with a multitude of functions in living organisms. In addition to its role in …

Organisms need to balance sufficient uptake of iron (Fe) with possible toxicity. In plant roots,
a regulon of uptake genes is transcriptionally activated under Fe deficiency, but it is …
