Phosphate Transport and Homeostasis in Arabidopsis [PDF]
The Arabidopsis Book, 2002 Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient for all living organisms. It serves various basic biological functions as a structural element in nucleic acids and phospholipids, in energy metabolism, in the activation of metabolic intermediates, as a component in signal transduction cascades, and the regulation of enzymes. Of the major nutrients, P is

A tRNA modification balances carbon and nitrogen metabolism by regulating phosphate homeostasis
eLife, 2019 Cells must appropriately sense and integrate multiple metabolic resources to commit to proliferation. Here, we report that S. cerevisiae cells regulate carbon and nitrogen metabolic homeostasis through tRNA U34-thiolation. Despite amino acid sufficiency,

Bacterial Phosphate Homeostasis: Role of Phosphate Transporters [PDF]
The Korean Journal of Microbiology, 2012 Phosphorous is an essential element for the synthesis of various biomolecules including phospholipids, carbohydrates and nucleic acids. Bacterial cells can uptake it as forms of phosphate and phosphate-containing nutrients from extracellular environments, and reserve extra phosphate to polyphosphate inside the cell.
