Determining Cellular Responses: Phytoglobins May Direct the Traffic

How stem cells retain their undifferentiated state or how differentiated cells are capable of having dissimilar responses to perturbations are major open questions in plant biology. Cell-specific phytoglobin expression may be one mechanism determining cell fate by the modulation of nitric oxide (NO)...

Description
Summary:How stem cells retain their undifferentiated state or how differentiated cells are capable of having dissimilar responses to perturbations are major open questions in plant biology. Cell-specific phytoglobin expression may be one mechanism determining cell fate by the modulation of nitric oxide (NO), affecting cellular hormonal responses and processes such as cell differentiation.
