Salinity tolerance in plants involves controlled Na(+) transport at the site of Na(+) accumulation and intracellular Na(+) compartmentation. The focus of this study was the identification and analysis of the expression of Na(+)/H(+) antiporters in ...

Structure and function of sodium-proton antiporters [PDF]
Sodium-proton (Na+/H+) antiporters are secondary membrane protein transporters present in all living cells and are critical for sodium, pH and cell volume homeostasis. Their deregulation of transport activity has been linked to human diseases, such as,

Molecular mechanism of exchange coupling in CLC chloride/proton antiporters
The ubiquitous CLC membrane transporters are unique in their ability to exchange anions for cations. Despite extensive study, there is no mechanistic model that fully explains their 2:1 Cl‒/H+ stoichiometric exchange mechanism.

Novel NaV1.6‐Mitochondrial Complexes in Retinal Astrocyte Pockets Sequester GABA
NaV1.6 localizes in retinal astrocytes' high density pockets on the bilayer facing the ganglion cell layer. NaV colocalizes with large, anaplerotic mitochondria. These microdomains accumulate high levels of GABA. ABSTRACT Voltage‐gated sodium channels are best known for their capacity to generate and propagate electrical currents in neurons and muscle.

ABSTRACT Saline–alkaline soils are widespread and represent a particularly restrictive environment for rice, especially in arid and semi‐arid regions. These soils commonly combine elevated salinity with high pH, sodium‐related soil constraints and bicarbonate/carbonate accumulation, resulting in severe physicochemical and nutritional limitations. Under

A new plasma membrane Na+/H+ antiporter gene (named as KvSOS1) was cloned from the halophyte Kosteletzkya virginica by reverse-transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) technology, which is a homologue ...

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress
ABSTRACT Among various plant defence strategies, trichomes are tiny hair‐like structures on the epidermis that aid in defence, environmental adaptation and the production of valuable secondary metabolites. This review features trichomes as frontline guards for plant survival, integrating their structural, physiological and metabolic roles in ...

ABSTRACT Soil salinisation severely constrains crop production. Legumes rely on rhizobial symbiosis for sustainable nitrogen acquisition. Although salinity is known to impair nodulation and nitrogen fixation, how symbiosis influences plant tolerance to salt stress remains unclear.

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Cytosolic NADPH in Living Arabidopsis thaliana
ABSTRACT In plants, an adequate supply of Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) in the cytosol is crucial for maintaining a variety of biosynthetic and antioxidant reactions. Cytosolic NADPH is mainly generated via four enzymatic pathways: NADP‐dependent malic dehydrogenase (NADP‐ME), cytosolic oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (cOPPP),
