This paper aims at analysing the synthesis of flavonoids, their import and export in plant cell
compartments, as well as their involvement in the response to stress, with particular …

A plant growing in nature is not an individual, but it holds an intricate community of plants
and microbes with relatively stable partnerships. The microbial community has recently been …

Fluorescent tagging of proteins and confocal imaging techniques have become methods of
choice in analysing the distributions and dynamic characteristics of proteins at the …

The sites of plant flavonoid biosynthesis, storage and final function often differ at the
subcellular, cell, and even tissue and organ levels. Efficient transport systems for flavonoids …

The trans-Golgi network (TGN) has been known as a key platform to sort and transport
proteins to their final destinations in post-Golgi membrane trafficking. However, how the TGN …

The exocyst protein complex mediates vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane. By
expressing an (X) FP-tagged Arabidopsis thaliana homolog of the exocyst protein Exo70 in …

Background The objectives of this study were to reveal the anthocyanin biosynthesis
metabolic pathway in white and purple flowers of Salvia miltiorrhiza using metabolomics and …

Cell-derived vesicles are membrane-enclosed organelles that transport material inside and
outside the cell. Plant-derived vesicles are receiving more and more attention due to their …

Many fungal parasites enter plant cells by penetrating the host cell wall and, thereafter,
differentiate specialized intracellular feeding structures, called haustoria, by invagination of …

The dynamics of exocytosis are diverse and have been optimized for the functions of
synapses and a wide variety of cell types. For example, the kinetics of exocytosis varies by …
