The mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) complex mediates one of three pyruvate-supplying pathways that sustain Arabidopsis respiratory metabolism (Xuyen H Le, Chun-Pong Lee, A Harvey Millar) #PlantSci xuyenhale doi.org/10.1093/plcell…

Pyruvate transport and its role in supplying the TCA cycle in Arabidopsis. How do plant mitochondria eat and how do they get it to the table? Here are some of the answers! From xuyenhale and Alex Lee Plant Energy Biology Molecular Sci-UWA UWA academic.oup.com/plcell/advance…

Plant respiration has a secret. It can channel imported pyruvate to TCA cycle and export internal pyruvate for biosynthesis. So respiration has more control layers for biomass prod. than thought. SharedIt link:rdcu.be/cPjTY UWA Molecular Sci-UWA Plant Energy Biology xuyenhale

Thrilled to have our work published on Nature Plants . Never thought this could happen. A big thank you to my supevisors Harvey Millar and Alex Lee
