Aquaporins: Highly Regulated Channels Controlling Plant Water Relations

TL;DR: This Update integrates data and emphasizes the central role played by aquaporins in regulating plant water relations and demonstrates that variations in root and leaf hydraulic conductivity can be accounted for by Aquaporins but this must be integrated with anatomical considerations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant aquaporins: roles in plant physiology.

TL;DR: Comprehensive insights made on plant aquaporins in recent years are presented, pointing to their molecular and physiological specificities with respect to animal or microbial counterparts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Evolution of Grass Stomata.

TL;DR: Grasses began to diversify in the late Cretaceous Period and now dominate more than one third of global land area, including three-quarters of agricultural land, hypothesize that their success is likely attributed to the evolution of highly responsive stomata capable of maximizing productivity in rapidly changing environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arabidopsis SNAREs SYP61 and SYP121 coordinate the trafficking of plasma membrane aquaporin PIP2;7 to modulate the cell membrane water permeability.

TL;DR: The data support a model in which direct interactions between specific SNARE proteins and PIP aquaporins modulate their post-Golgi trafficking and thus contribute to the fine-tuning of the water permeability of the plasma membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Beyond water homeostasis: Diverse functional roles of mammalian aquaporins

TL;DR: Elucidating the full range of functional roles of AQPs beyond the passive conduction of water will improve the understanding of mammalian physiology in health and disease and could provide routes to a range of novel therapies.

Plant Aquaporins: Membrane Channels with Multiple Integrated Functions

TL;DR: How a wide range of selectivity profiles and regulation properties allows aquaporins to be integrated in numerous functions, throughout plant development, and during adaptations to variable living conditions is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Arabidopsis GNOM ARF-GEF Mediates Endosomal Recycling, Auxin Transport, and Auxin-Dependent Plant Growth

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that GNOM localizes to endosomes and is required for their structural integrity and suggested that ARF-GEFs regulate specific endosomal trafficking pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene Expression Profiles during the Initial Phase of Salt Stress in Rice

TL;DR: Transcript regulation in response to high salinity was investigated for salt-tolerant rice with microarrays including 1728 cDNAs from libraries of salt-stressed roots and the interpretation of an adaptive process was supported by the similar analysis of salinity-sensitive rice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural mechanism of plant aquaporin gating

TL;DR: A molecular gating mechanism which appears conserved throughout all plant plasma membrane aquaporins is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Auxin inhibits endocytosis and promotes its own efflux from cells

TL;DR: The data imply a previously undescribed mode of plant hormone action: by modulating PIN protein trafficking, auxin regulates PIN abundance and activity at the cell surface, providing a mechanism for the feedback regulation of auxin transport.
