    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...

    Copper-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...

    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 ...

    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...

    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...
