Chloroplast nitrite uptake is enhanced in Arabidopsis PII mutants.

FEBS letters - 2 Apr 2008

Ferrario-Méry Sylvie, Meyer Christian, Hodges Michael

Abstract excerpt

In higher plants, the PII protein is a nuclear-encoded plastid protein that regulates the activity of a key enzyme of arginine biosynthesis. We have previously observed that Arabidopsis PII mutants are more sensitive to nitrite toxicity. Using intact chloroplasts isolated from Arabidopsis leaves and (15)N-labelled nitrite we show that a light-dependent nitrite uptake into chloroplasts is increased in PII...
