Plants experience oxidative stress upon exposure to heavy metals that leads to cellular
damage. In addition, plants accumulate metal ions that disturb cellular ionic homeostasis. To …

Zinc (Zn) is an essential component of thousands of proteins in plants, although it is toxic in
excess. In this review, the dominant fluxes of Zn in the soil–root–shoot continuum are …

The glutathione S-transferase (GST) was purified from fresh blood erythrocytes using affinity
column chromatography. Also, α-amylase from porcine pancreas and α-glycosidase from …

Sulfur is an essential nutrient, necessary for synthesis of many metabolites. The uptake of
sulfate, primary and secondary assimilation, the biosynthesis, storage, and final utilization of …

The grape is one of the oldest and most important horticultural crops. Grape and wine aroma
has long been of cultural and scientific interest. The diverse compound classes comprising …

Discovered 40 years ago, plant glutathione transferases (GSTs) now have a well-
established role in determining herbicide metabolism and selectivity in crops and weeds …

Although glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are thought to play major roles in oxidative
stress metabolism, little is known about the regulatory functions of GSTs. We have reported …

Anthocyanins have crucial biological functions and affect quality of horticultural produce.
Anthocyanins accumulate in ripe peach fruit; differential accumulation is observed in deep …

Anthocyanins are biosynthesized on the cytosolic surface of the endoplasmic reticulum and
then transported into the vacuole for storage. Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are …

AN9 is a glutathione S-transferase from petunia (Petunia hybrida) required for efficient
anthocyanin export from the site of synthesis in the cytoplasm into permanent storage in the …
