BMC Plant Biology, 2017 Background Moderate salt stress, which often occurs in most saline agriculture land, suppresses crop growth and reduces crop yield. Rice, as an important food crop, is sensitive to salt stress and rice genotypes differ in their tolerance to salt stress ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Unraveling salt stress signaling in plants [PDF]
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2018 Abstract Salt stress is a major environmental factor limiting plant growth and productivity. A better understanding of the mechanisms mediating salt resistance will help researchers design ways to improve crop performance under adverse environmental conditions.

Identification of Metabolites and Transcripts Involved in Salt Stress and Recovery in Peanut
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 HIGHLIGHTSMetabolites and transcripts related to plant physiology in salt stress conditions, especially to the recovery process were disclosed in peanut.Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is considered as a moderately salt-sensitive species and thus soil ...

How structural disorder and polyelectrolyte properties of prothymosin α enable its large interactome
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this review, complexes of the fully disordered and highly negatively charged prothymosin α are collected, described, and discussed. Linked to its poly‐electrostatic character, prothymosin α engages a large interactome through multiple different binding modes ranging from fully disordered complexes to short linear motif (SLiM)‐driven interactions ...

Drought and Salt Stress in Cereals
, 2015 Abiotic stresses, such as salinity, drought, extreme temperatures, chemical toxicity and oxidative stress represent a grave threat to agriculture dramatically affecting the crop production around the world. Climate changes are projected to have a significant impact on temperature and precipitation profiles increasing the incidence and severity of ...

Responses and tolerance to salt stress in bryophytes [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2008 During exposure to salt environments, plants could perceive salt signal and transmit the signal to cellular machinery to activate adaptive responses. In bryophytes, salt signal components and transcript factor identified suggest that salt activate adaptive responses to tolerate adverse environments.
