Source-to-sink transport of sugar and regulation by environmental factors (2013, background): “SWEETs were at first identified as glucose uniporters but paralogues (i.e., AtSWEET11 and AtSWEET12) can also export sucrose (Chen et al., 2010, 2012).”
Glc-TOR signalling leads transcriptome reprogramming and meristem activation (2013, neutral): “…nutrient/metabolite transporters (nitrate transporter and glucose-6-phosphate translocator), lipid transfer proteins, protein secretion and targeting, and vesicle trafficking, but down regulation of genes for various sugar transporters (STP and SWEET) 1, 18 (Supplementary Tables 1, 3 and 4).”
