TLDR
The phylogenetic tree was used to determine a unified nomenclature of this family named NPF, for NRT1/PTR FAMILY, and it is proposed that the members should be named accordingly: NPFX.About:

Feed Your Friends: Do Plant Exudates Shape the Root Microbiome?
TL;DR: In this paper, physiological factors of plants that may govern plant-microbe interactions, focusing on root physiology and the role of root exudates, are discussed, and a possible sequence of events governing rhizobiome assembly is elaborated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Source and sink mechanisms of nitrogen transport and use
TL;DR: This review integrates the current knowledge regarding inorganic and organic nitrogen management at the whole-plant level, spanning from nitrogen uptake to remobilization and utilization in source and sink organs, demonstrating that nitrogen transporters are effective targets to improve crop productivity and nitrogen use efficiency.

Structural Biology of the Major Facilitator Superfamily Transporters.
TL;DR: The history, classification, and general features of the MFS proteins are reviewed; recent structural progress is summarized with a focus on the sugar porter family transporters exemplified by GLUT1; and the molecular mechanisms of substrate binding, alternating access, and cotransport coupling are discussed.

OrthoMCL: identification of ortholog groups for eukaryotic genomes.
TL;DR: OrthoMCL provides a scalable method for constructing orthologous groups across multiple eukaryotic taxa, using a Markov Cluster algorithm to group (putative) orthologs and paralogs.
Journal ArticleDOI
MAFFT version 5: improvement in accuracy of multiple sequence alignment
TL;DR: Improvement in accuracy was generally observed for most methods, but remarkably large for the new options of MAFFT proposed here, which showed higher accuracy than currently available methods including TCoffee version 2 and CLUSTAL W in benchmark tests consisting of alignments of >50 sequences.

CHL1 functions as a nitrate sensor in plants.
TL;DR: CHL1 uses dual-affinity binding and a phosphorylation switch to sense a wide range of nitrate concentrations in the soil, thereby functioning as an ion sensor in higher plants.

TL;DR: The cloning and functional characterization of a H+-coupled transporter of oligopeptides and peptide-derived antibiotics from rabbit small intestine is reported, and the PepT1 primary structure is the first reported for a proton-Coupled organic solute transporter in vertebrates.

TL;DR: It is proposed that NRT1.1 represses lateral root growth at low nitrate availability by promoting basipetal auxin transport out of these roots, which defines a mechanism connecting nutrient and hormone signaling during organ development.
