- Non-Canonical Functions of the E2F/DP Pathway with Emphasis in Plants
- Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol.90, No.2, pp. 307-330, 2021, DOI:10.32604/phyton.2021.014967
- Abstract The E2F/DP pathway is a widely conserved regulatory mechanism in pluricellular organisms. The family of E2F and DP transcription factors was originally described having a role in the transition from the G1 to the S phase of the cell cycle. However, the discovery of hundreds of possible gene targets and their involvement in many other biochemical processes, soon showed that they participated in cell development and differentiation, chromatin remodeling, DNA repair and others. The E2F/DP transcription factors can act as either activators or repressors of transcription depending on their association to other regulatory proteins, particularly the retinoblastoma protein, or even… More

- Abstract Potassium (K+) is a necessary nutrient for plant growth and crop production. The K+ transporter plays crucial roles in the absorption and transport of K+ in plants. Most K+ transporters in Arabidopsis have been reported, but AtKUP12, which is a member of the KT/KUP/HAK family, has not yet been the subject of relevant in-depth research. In the present study, we demonstrated that AtKUP12 plays a crucial role in K+ uptake in Arabidopsis under 100 μM lowK+ and 125 mM salt stress conditions. AtKUP12 transcripts were induced by K+ deficiency and salt stress. We analyzed the K+ uptake of AtKUP12 using… More
