Compartmentation of Sulfur Metabolites in Tobacco Cells 1: USE OF EFFLUX ANALYSIS

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The distribution of sulfur-containing metabolites in cultured tobacco cells was determined by analyzing efflux kinetics. Transported sulfate rapidly labeled the cytoplasmic pools of sulfate (1 hour) and sulfur amino acids (6 hours). Excess sulfate and amino acids were transported into the vacuole. The size and distribution of the amino acid pool was not affected by increasing the sulfate content of the cells.
