Charophytes are the group of green algae whose ancestral lineage gave rise to land plants
in what resulted in a profoundly transformative event in the natural history of the planet …

Receptor endocytosis is important for signal activation, transduction, and deactivation.
However, how a receptor interprets conflicting signals to adjust cellular output is not clearly …

Stomata are epidermal pores that control gas exchange between plants and the
atmosphere. In Arabidopsis, the ERECTA family (ERECTAf) receptors, including ERECTA …

Background The Characeae are multicellular green algae, which are closely related to
higher plants. Their internodal cells are a convenient model to study membrane transport …

The Characeae are multicellular green algae with very close relationship to land plants.
Their internodal cells have been the subject of numerous (electro-) physiological studies …

Wolbachia pipientis, an obligate intracellular bacterium associated with arthropods and
filarial worms, is a target for filarial disease treatment and provides a gene drive agent for …

The involvement of endocytosis in Na+ internalization by suspension-cultured Arabidopsis
thaliana (L.) Heynh. cells under salt stress was investigated. Using epifluorescence and …

Endocytosis is an essential process for the internalization of plasma membrane proteins,
lipids and extracellular molecules into the cells. The mechanisms underlying endocytosis in …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) of many charophytes, the assemblage of green algae that are
the sister group to land plants, is complex, produced in large amounts, and has multiple …

The huge internodal cells of the characean green algae are a convenient model to study
long‐range interactions between organelles via cytoplasmic streaming. It has been shown …
