Loss of OPT3 function decreases phloem copper levels and impairs crosstalk between copper and iron homeostasis and shoot-to-root signaling in Arabidopsis …
Abstract Copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) are essential micronutrients that are toxic when
accumulating in excess in cells. Thus, their uptake by roots is tightly regulated. While plants …

OPT3 is a component of the iron-signaling network between leaves and roots and misregulation of OPT3 leads to an over-accumulation of cadmium in seeds
Plants and seeds are the main dietary sources of zinc, iron, manganese, and copper, but are
also the main entry point for toxic elements such as cadmium into the food chain. We report …
