1. Plant proton pumps as markers of biostimulant action
ABSTRACT A standard protocol to evaluate the effects of biostimulants on plant physiology is still lacking. The proton pumps present in the vacuolar and plasma membranes are the primary agents responsible for the regulation of the electrochemical gradient that energizes the nutrient uptake system and acid growth mechanism of plant cells. In this study, two o

2. Plant physiology as affected by humified organic matter
Since the beginning of Human civilization, the soil organic matter has been used as plant growth promoter and/or regulator. Indeed, early in plant science history, even before the auxin concept has been established, the term "auximones" was coined to describe plant growth promoting humic acids derived from peat. Despite of this, until the end of the 20th cen

4. Estudo da expressÃo dos genes das bombas de prÃtons (V-ATPase e V-PPase) e dos contra-transportadores vacuolares (NHX) de Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp submetidos a estresses abiÃticos / Expression study of proton pumps(V-ATPase and V-PPase) and vacuolar antiport (NHX) genes from Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp submitted to abiotic stress
O acÃmulo de Na+ no vacÃolo central representa um importante mecanismo de defesa de plantas contra o estresse salino. A regulaÃÃo dos volumes e conteÃdos dos vacÃolos de cÃlulas vegetais depende da atividade de transportadores e canais localizados no tonoplasto (membrana vacuolar). A membrana vacuolar possui duas distintas bombas de prÃtons (V-ATPase

5. Vesicle transmembrane potential is required for translocation to the cytosol of externally added FGF-1
Externally added fibroblast growth factor-1 (FGF-1) is capable of crossing cellular membranes to reach the cytosol and the nucleus in a number of cell types. We have monitored the translocation of the growth factor by two methods: phosphorylation of FGF-1, and prenylation of an FGF-1 mutant that contains a C-terminal prenylation signal. Inhibition of endosom

6. Comparative studies on the electrical properties of the H+ translocating ATPase and pyrophosphatase of the vacuolar-lysosomal compartment.
The electrical properties of the vacuolar-lysosomal H+ pumps were studied by direct measurement of the pump currents using the whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique. Both pumps, the proton-translocating ATPase and pyrophosphatase, when activated by MgATP or inorganic Mg pyrophosphate (MgPP(i)), transport protons into the vacuole and polarize

7. Heterologous expression of plant vacuolar pyrophosphatase in yeast demonstrates sufficiency of the substrate-binding subunit for proton transport.
The membrane bounding the vacuole of plant cells contains two electrogenic proton pumps. These are the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3), an enzyme common to all eukaryotes, and a vacuolar H(+)-translocating pyrophosphatase (EC 3.6.1.1), which is ubiquitous in plants but otherwise known in only a few phototrophic bacteria. Although the substrate-binding subu

8. Characterization of an anion-permeable channel from sugar beet vacuoles: effect of inhibitors
The vacuole occupies 25-95% of the plant cell volume and plays an essential role in maintaining cytoplasmic homeostasis of nutrients and ions. Recent patch-clamp studies identified ion channels and electrogenic pumps as pathways for the movement of ions and metabolites across the vacuolar membrane (tonoplast). At high cytoplasmic Ca2+ (>10-6 M) and negative

9. Cell acidification in apoptosis: granulocyte colony-stimulating factor delays programmed cell death in neutrophils by up-regulating the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase.
Neutrophils in tissue culture spontaneously undergo programmed cell death (apoptosis), a process characterized by well-defined morphological alterations affecting the cell nucleus. We found that these morphological changes were preceded by intracellular acidification and that acidification and the apoptotic changes in nuclear morphology were both delayed by

10. Vacuolar-type proton pumps in insect epithelia
Active transepithelial cation transport in insects was initially discovered in Malpighian tubules, and was subsequently also found in other epithelia such as salivary glands, labial glands, midgut and sensory sensilla. Today it appears to be established that the cation pump is a two-component system of a H+-transporting V-ATPase and a cation/nH+ antiport

11. A Study of the Effect of Inhibitors of the Animal Sarcoplasmic/Endoplasmic Reticulum-Type Calcium Pumps on the Primary Ca2+-ATPases of Red Beet.
The inhibitor sensitivity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and plasma membrane (PM) calcium pumps of red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) were studied by measuring the ATP-driven accumulation of 45Ca2+ into isolated membrane vesicles. Both transporters were strongly inhibited by 50 [mu]mol m-3 erythrosin B, but only by 50% in the presence of 100 mmol m-3 vanadate. A

12. A plasma membrane H+-ATPase is required for the formation of proanthocyanidins in the seed coat endothelium of Arabidopsis thaliana
The plasma membrane in plant cells is energized with an electrical potential and proton gradient generated through the action of H+ pumps belonging to the P-type ATPase superfamily. The Arabidopsis genome encodes 11 plasma membrane H+ pumps. Auto-inhibited H+-ATPase isoform 10 (AHA10) is expressed primarily in developing seeds. Here we show that four indepen
