Plants synthesize an amazing diversity of volatile organic compounds (VOC s) that facilitate
interactions with their environment, from attracting pollinators and seed dispersers to …

Fluorescent protein (FP) tagging approaches are widely used to determine the subcellular
location of plant proteins. Here we give a brief overview of FP approaches, highlight …

Photosynthetic carbon assimilation including photorespiration is dynamically regulated
during the day/night cycle. This includes transcriptional regulation, such as the light …

S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR), also known as S-(hydroxymethyl) glutathione
(HMGSH) dehydrogenase, belongs to the large alcohol dehydrogenase superfamily, namely …

Pima cotton (G ossypium barbadense) is widely cultivated because of its long, strong seed
trichomes ('fibers') used for premium textiles. These agronomically advanced fibers were …

The dual-targeting ability of a variety of proteins from Physcomitrella patens, rice (Oryza

Photorespiration represents one of the major highways of primary plant metabolism and is
the most prominent example of metabolic cell organelle integration, since the pathway …

Cellular compartmentalization into organelles serves to separate biological processes within
the environment of a single cell. While some metabolic reactions are specific to a single …

PMPs (peroxisome membrane proteins) play essential roles in organelle biogenesis and in
co-ordinating peroxisomal metabolism with pathways in other subcellular compartments …

The isoprenoid family represents one of the most ancient and widespread classes of
structurally and functionally rich biomolecules known to man. Although these natural …
