Chapter
Drought Stress Tolerance in Relation to Polyamine Metabolism in Plants
Polyamines (PAs) are small protonated molecules with amine groups that are found in most living organisms. In plants, most abundant polyamines are putrescine, spermidine, spermine, and its isomer thermospermin...

Chapter
Polyamine Biosynthesis Engineering as a Tool to Improve Plant Resistance to Abiotic Stress
Polyamines (PAs) are small polycationic molecules which are present in all living organisms. PAs have been involved in a wide array of metabolic plant processes, extending from development to stress protection...

The roles of polyamines during the lifespan of plants: from development to stress
Compelling evidence indicates that free polyamines (PAs) (mainly putrescine, spermidine, spermine, and its isomer thermospermine), some PA conjugates to hydroxycinnamic acids, and the products of PA oxidation ...

Open AccessCopper-containing amine oxidases contribute to terminal polyamine oxidation in peroxisomes and apoplast of Arabidopsis thaliana
Polyamines (PAs) are oxidatively deaminated at their primary or secondary amino-groups by copper-containing amine oxidases (CuAOs) or FAD-dependent amine oxidases (PAOs), respectively. Both enzymes have long b...

Polyamines: molecules with regulatory functions in plant abiotic stress tolerance
Early studies on plant polyamine research pointed to their involvement in responses to different environmental stresses. During the last few years, genetic, transcriptomic and metabolomic approaches have unrav...
