This project investigates the PHO1 protein's role in phosphate export and signaling in plants, aiming to understand its structure and function. By analyzing PHO1's localization and activity, the research seeks to improve phosphate homeostasis, contributing to sustainable agriculture and reducing water pollution.
Phosphate (Pi)-based fertilizers are essential to agriculture but are a non-renewable resource and a major cause of water pollution.
Understanding how plants sense and adapt to Pi deficiency is key to attain sustainable agriculture.
Contrary to Pi import, mechanisms regulating Pi export are unknown despite being essential for Pi homeostasis in most eukaryotes (e.g. human kidney or mychorizzal roots).
The only protein known to mediate Pi efflux is the Arabidopsis thaliana PHO1. PHO1 mediates Pi e…
