Journal ArticleDOI
Cytoplasmic chloride regulates cation channels in the vacuolar membrane of plant cells.
TL;DR: Voltage patch-clamp experiments at the whole vacuole and single channel levels showed that reduction of cytoplasmic chloride changed the gating mechanism of the channels without affecting the single channel conductance, and reduction caused a decrease in the open probability of the tonoplast cation channels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vacuolar Na+/H+ NHX-Type Antiporters Are Required for Cellular K+ Homeostasis, Microtubule Organization and Directional Root Growth
TL;DR: The results suggest that altered K+ homeostasis leads to an increase in the dynamics of cortical microtubule reorganization in nhx1nhx2nhX3nh x4 root epidermal cells of the elongation zone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sugar metabolism reprogramming in a non-climacteric bud mutant of a climacteric plum fruit during development on the tree.
TL;DR: Using a systems biology approach, differences in sorbitol accumulation and of other major and minor sugars in Sweet Miriam, a non-climacteric bud mutant of the climacteric plum cultivar Santa Rosa are identified and functionally assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Vacuolar Malate and K+ Channels under Physiological Conditions
TL;DR: Patch-clamp techniques were employed to study the electrical properties of vacuoles from sugar beet cell suspensions at physiological concentrations of cytoplasmic Ca(2+), revealing the activation of instantaneous and time-dependent outward currents by positive membrane potentials.
Journal ArticleDOI
The gene-for-gene concept and beyond: Interactions and signals
TL;DR: Recent data are reviewed, confirming that the oxidative burst seen in the defense response of tomato to C. fulvum has strong similarity to that of mammalian phagocytic neutrophil cells.
