Aquaporins are channel proteins that function to increase the permeability of biological
membranes. In plants, aquaporins are encoded by multigene families that have undergone …

Membrane intrinsic proteins (MIPs) form transmembrane channels and facilitate transport of
myriad substrates across the cell membrane in many organisms. Majority of plant MIPs have …

Climate change is increasingly impacting the water deficit over the world. Because of
drought and the high pressure of the rising human population, water is becoming a scarce …

Nitrogen (N) is a macronutrient important for plant growth and development. It also strongly
influences starch and protein synthesis, closely related to grain yield and quality. We …

Posttranslational modifications are mechanisms that modulate and control the functions of
proteins. The development of mass spectrometry methodology allows description of the …

Hydraulic redistribution (HR), the movement of water from wet to dry patches in the soil via
roots, occurs in different ecosystems and plant species. By extension of the principle that HR …

A barley (Hordeum vulgare) plasma membrane type aquaporin, HvPIP2; 5, was identified as
an H2O2 permeable aquaporin among 21 barley and rice PIPs examined in the …

Main conclusion The effect of ethylene and its precursor ACC on root hydraulic properties,
including aquaporin expression and abundance, is modulated by relative air humidity and …

As moléculas orgânicas podem ser a principal entrada de nitrogênio para plantas em
ambientes onde as fontes inorgânicas de nitrogênio são limitadas, como o ambiente …

El flujo de agua en la raíz se describe como un circuito hidráulico donde la vía celular es
poco conductora que no evidencia las propiedades de las membranas biológicas …
