Abstract excerpt
The vacuolar H(+)-translocating inorganic pyrophosphatase (H(+)-PPase) uses pyrophosphate as substrate to generate the proton electrochemical gradient across the vacuolar membrane to acidify vacuoles in plant cells. The heterologous expression of H(+)-PPase genes (TsVP from Thellungiella halophil...
