This project investigates the mechanisms regulating the transport and interaction of specific water channels in plants, known as aquaporins. By understanding how these proteins function and are localized, the project aims to enhance plant water and nutrient management, potentially improving drought resistance and nutri…
In plants, the movement of water and small neutral solutes across the plasma membrane (PM) is dependent on the number and activity of water channels, named aquaporins (AQP).
Little is known about mechanisms by which AQPs reach their final destination.
Recent studies have shown that PIP (Plasma membrane Intrinsic Protein) aquaporins belonging to two subgroups, PIP1 and PIP2, physically interact to regulate their trafficking and the cell membrane water permeability.
Therefore, this mechanism might…
