Increasing numbers of plant proteins are being shown to have posttranslationally-attached
lipids. The modifications include N-myristoylation, S-palmitoylation, prenylation by farnesyl …

Plant biostimulants can enhance crop nutrition status, stress tolerance, yield and quality in
an environment-friendly manner. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of algae …

Exocytosis is the final event in the secretory pathway and requires the fusion of the secretory
vesicle membrane with the plasma membrane. It results in the release to the outside of …

Background Most secretory proteins contain signal peptides that direct their sorting to the ER
and secreted via the conventional ER/Golgi transport pathway, while some signal-peptide …

Lowering of the osmotic value of the medium has been reported previously to induce an
oxidative burst in plant cells. This has been explained by a sequence of events, including …

Impact of cadmium on activity of some hydrolytic enzymes was studied in maize seedlings
exposed to different concentration of Cd (1–1000 µM) for 24 h. Our results confirmed high …

An acid phosphatase (acPAse) activity was released during germination and tube growth of
pollen of Lilium longiflorum Thunb. By inhibiting components of the secretory pathway, the …

Background: Upon contact with a wet surface, mature pollen grains hydrate and release
proteins including allergens. Knowledge of the release mechanism of allergens that are …

We investigated the response of extracellular phosphatase to heat shock in heterotrophic
Chenopodium rubrum L. cell cultures. Surprisingly, in contrast to the generally used acid …
