Sodium-Induced Calcium Signaling in Plants Under Salinity Stress
Global climate change is posing serious threat to agricultural productivity worldwide. Therefore, ensuring global food security in the light of... -
Introduction of a Sodium-Binding Motif into Subunits a and c of Bacillus sp. PS3 Proton F-ATPase Does Not Result in Sodium Specificity of the Enzyme
AbstractIn bacteria, F-type ATPase (F-ATPase) plays a key role in bioenergetics and couples ATP synthesis/hydrolysis with the transport of ions (H + ...
