Abstract excerpt
A barley (Hordeum vulgare) plasma membrane type aquaporin, HvPIP2;5, was identified as an H2 O2 permeable aquaporin among 21 barley and rice PIPs examined in the heterologous expression system using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Four TIPs were also detected as H2 O2 -transporting aquaporins among 15 barley and rice TIPs. Influx of H2 O2 into yeast cells expressing HvPIP2;5 was determined with a florescent-dye-based...
