• Pip water transport and its pH dependence are regulated by tetramer stoichiometry 

      Jozefkowicz, Cintia; Sigaut, Lorena; Scochera, Florencia; Soto, Gabriela Cinthia; Ayub, Nicolás Daniel; Pietrasanta, Lía Isabel; Amodeo, Gabriela; Gonzalez Flecha, Francisco Luis; Alleva, Karina Edith (2016)
      Many plasma membrane channels form oligomeric assemblies, and heterooligomerization has been described as a distinctive feature of some protein families. In the particular case of plant plasma membrane aquaporins (PIPs), ...
    • Pollen aquaporins : the solute factor 

      Perez Di Giorgio, Juliana Andrea; Soto, Gabriela Cinthia; Muschietti, Jorge Prometeo; Amodeo, Gabriela (2016)
      In the recent years, the biophysical properties and presumed physiological role of aquaporins (AQPs) have been expanded to specialized cells where water and solute exchange are crucial traits. Complex but unique processes ...
    • Pollen-specific aquaporins NIP4;1 and NIP4;2 are required for pollen development and pollination in Arabidopsis thaliana 

      Perez Di Giorgio, Juliana Andrea; Bienert, Gerd Patrick; Ayub, Nicolás Daniel; Yaneff, Agustín; Barberini, María Laura; Mecchia, Martín Alejandro; Amodeo, Gabriela; Soto, Gabriela Cinthia; Muschietti, Jorge Prometeo (2016)
      In flowers with dry stigmas, pollen development, pollination, and pollen tube growth require spatial and temporal regulation of water and nutrient transport. To better understand the molecular mechanisms involved in ...
