This project investigates the biochemical properties of ZIP family transporters, specifically focusing on the IRT1 transporter in Arabidopsis thaliana. By characterizing its function and interactions, the research aims to enhance understanding of iron uptake in plants, which is crucial for improving crop production and…
Iron is an essential nutrient.
It is involved in a great variety of biological processes, such as photosynthesis or the oxidative respiration.
Iron deficiency is a factor limiting crop production, and the most important dietary deficiency in humans.
In order to address these problems, plant iron uptake has been studied with detail.
As a result, metal transporters of the ZIP family have been identified as the main responsibles for iron uptake from soil in plants, with the exception of some grasse…
