The diets of over two‐thirds of the world's population lack one or more essential mineral
elements. This can be remedied through dietary diversification, mineral supplementation …

Almost half of all enzymes must associate with a particular metal to function. An ambition is
to understand why each metal–protein partnership arose and how it is maintained. Metal …

Fe is essential for plant growth. At the same time, Fe is highly reactive and toxic via the
Fenton reaction. Consequently, plants tightly control Fe homeostasis and react to Fe …

Copper (Cu) is a cofactor in proteins that are involved in electron transfer reactions and is an
essential micronutrient for plants. Copper delivery is accomplished by the concerted action …

Plants have recently moved into the spotlight owing to the growing realization that the world
needs solutions to energy and food production that are sustainable and environmentally …

Here, we have analysed the H+‐ATPase‐mediated extrusion of protons across the plasma
membrane (PM) of rhizodermic cells, a process that is inducible by iron (Fe) deficiency and …

Graminaceous plants take up iron through YS1 (yellow stripe 1) and YS1-like (YSL)
transporters using iron-chelating compounds known as mugineic acid family …

Despite the abundance of iron in nature, it is the third most limiting nutrient for plants due to
its minimal solubility in most soils. While certain soil microbes produce chelating agents that …

Relatively little is known about how metals such as iron are effluxed from cells, a necessary
step for transport from the root to the shoot. Ferroportin (FPN) is the sole iron efflux …

Nitric oxide (NO) functions as a cell-signaling molecule in plants. In particular, a role for NO
in the regulation of iron homeostasis and in the plant response to toxic metals has been …
