Abscisic acid biosynthesis and catabolism
Article Abstract:
The level of abscisic acid (ABA) in any particular tissue in a plant is determined by the rate of biosynthesis and catabolism of the hormone. The identification of ABA metabolic genes has revealed that multiple metabolic steps are differently regulated to fine-tune the ABA level at both transcriptional and post transcriptional levels.

Endocytotic cycling of PM proteins
Article Abstract:
Plant orthologs of mammalian-trafficking proteins involved in endocytotic cycling are discussed. The use of styryl dye FM4-64 to define the course of endocytotic uptake and the fungal toxin brefeldin A to dissect the internationalization pathways are particularly emphasized.
