Delivering copper within plant cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two genes recently identified in Arabidopsis thaliana may be involved in sequestering free copper ions in the cytoplasm and delivering copper to post-Golgi vesicles. The genes COPPER CHAPERONE and RESPONSIVE TO ANTAGONIST1 are homologous to copper-trafficking genes from yeast and humans. This plant copper-delivery pathway is required to create functional ethylene receptors. The pathway may also facilitate the transport of copper from senescing leaf tissue. In addition, several other genes have been identified recently that may have a role in copper salvage during senescence.

The flotation circuit in Sungun copper plant consists of two column flotation cells as cleaner, having fixed-spargers system. To achieve the expected aims in flotation step, there are serious operational challenges such as: fast choking of the static mixers, boiling problem, burping phenomena and pulp overflow to concentrate lander, maintenance and control problems. An attempt was exerted by im...
متن کاملYSL16 is a phloem-localized transporter of the copper-nicotianamine complex that is responsible for copper distribution in rice.
Cu is an essential element for plant growth, but the molecular mechanisms of its distribution and redistribution within the plants are unknown. Here, we report that Yellow stripe-like16 (YSL16) is involved in Cu distribution and redistribution in rice (Oryza sativa). Rice YSL16 was expressed in the roots, leaves, and unelongated nodes at the vegetative growth stage and highly expressed in the u...

متن کاملProtection of tobacco cells from oxidative copper toxicity by catalytically active metal-binding DNA oligomers.
The impact of copper ions on the oxidative and calcium signal transductions, leading to cell death in plant cells, have been documented. Copper induces a series of biological and chemical reactions in plant cells including the oxidative burst reflecting the production of reactive oxygen species and the stimulation of calcium channel opening allowing a transient increase in cytosolic calcium con...

The effects of copper deficiency on cell culture growth, cell respiration, mitochondrial oxidative properties, and electron transport chain have been studied with suspension-cultured sycamore cells (Acer pseudoplatanus L.). Within the range of the copper concentration studied (0.1-25 mug/1 of culture medium), the mean rate of cell division is independent of copper concentration. An initial copp...
