Fatty acids and lipids, which are major and essential constituents of all plant cells, not only
provide structural integrity and energy for various metabolic processes but can also function …

Phosphatidic acid (PA) has emerged as a new class of lipid mediators involved in diverse
cellular functions in plants, animals, and microorganisms. Considerable progress has been …

We determined the role of Phospholipase Dα1 (PLDα1) and its lipid product phosphatidic
acid (PA) in abscisic acid (ABA)-induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a well-studied model of fleshy fruit development and
ripening. Tomato fruit development is well understood from a hormonal-regulatory …

DGKs (diacylglycerol kinases) are members of a unique and conserved family of
intracellular lipid kinases that phosphorylate DAG (diacylglycerol), catalysing its conversion …

Membrane surface charge is critical for the transient, yet specific recruitment of proteins with
polybasic regions to certain organelles. In eukaryotes, the plasma membrane (PM) is the …

The anatomy of strawberry (Fragaria× ananassa) fruit, in which the achene is found on the
outer part of the fruit, makes it an excellent species for studying the regulation of fruit …

Accumulating evidence suggests that phosphatidic acid (PA) plays a pivotal role in the
plant's response to environmental signals. Besides phospholipase D (PLD) activity, PA can …

Flagellin perception is a keystone of pattern-triggered immunity in plants. The recognition of
this protein by a plasma membrane (PM) receptor complex is the beginning of a signaling …

Diacylglycerol (DAG) is an important lipid that is both an intermediate in lipid biosynthetic
pathways and can act as a signaling lipid. The majority of signaling DAG is generated by …
