Seed Storage Proteins: Structures and Biosynthesis [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 1995 in them. The presence of these groups may allow the plant to maintain high levels of storage protein synthesis despite variations in sulfur availability. The strict tissue specificity of seed storage protein synthesis contrasts with that of tuber storage proteins, which may be synthesized in vegetative tissues under unusual conditions (for example, in ...

A View into Seed Autophagy: From Development to Environmental Responses
Plants, 2022 Autophagy is a conserved cellular mechanism involved in the degradation and subsequent recycling of cytoplasmic components. It is also described as a catabolic process implicated in the specific degradation of proteins in response to several stimuli.
