    Regulation of ammonium transport in Arabidopsis thaliana
    (2022) Ganz, Pascal; Ludewig, Uwe
    The overarching question of this thesis deals with how plants ensure the selective uptake of ammonium while maintaining ion and pH homeostasis. A key component of this is ammonium transporters (AMTs) with high affinity towards their substrate, which are at the same time part of a multilayered protection system against uncontrolled ammonium influx. Conserved protein sequences inside the transporter were analyzed as well as the regulatory system based on post-translational modification of the transporter.
