Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, unknown): “For example, the putative cation-binding domain and membrane-spanning pore are highly conserved in plants (Yokoi et al., 2002; Aharon et al., 2003) as well as animal NHEs and yeast Nhx1, and comprises the amino acid sequence ‘FFIYLLPPI’, a region where the diuretic drug amiloride and its derivatives”
Potential biochemical indicators of salinity tolerance in plants (2004, background): “In a recent study, it has been reported that overexpression of the vacuolar Na+/H+ antiporter that sequesters Na+ in vacuoles (NHX1) improved the salinity tolerance in Arabidopsis, tomato, and brassicas [175].”
Physiology and molecular biology of stress tolerance in plants (2006, background): “Research studies of Arabidopsis antiporters confirmed their role in salinity tolerance of plants (Aharon et al., 2003).”
Vacuolar transporters and their essential role in plant metabolism. (2006, background): “Arabidopsis harbours six AtNHX isoforms, and for five of them Na/H transport activity has been demonstrated (Yokoi et al., 2002; Aharon et al., 2003).”
