Glutathione Is a Key Player in Metal-Induced Oxidative Stress Defenses (2012, background): “However, not only toxic metals, but also the essential ions like Cu and Zn are bound by PCs suggesting a function for PCs in the regulation of their free cellular concentrations [76,77].”
Glutathione in plants: an integrated overview. (2012, unknown): “As noted previously, it is possible that PCS has other biochemical roles, in addition to phytochelatin synthesis, for example, turnover of GS-conjugates (Rea et al. 2004; Blum et al. 2007, 2010; Clemens & Peršoh 2009).”
Toxic Heavy Metal and Metalloid Accumulation in Crop Plants and Foods. (2016, background): “PC synthesis is ubiquitous in plants (24), and it is noteworthy that, according to translatome data (available so far only for A.”
