Annotation | Study revealed that in Arabidopsis sucrose transporter SUC2 activity is regulated via its protein turnover rate and phosphorylation state. UBIQUITIN-CONJUGATING ENZYME 34 (UBC34) was found to trigger turnover of SUC2 in a light-dependent manner. Mutants of another SUC2-interaction partner, WALL-ASSOCIATED KINASE LIKE 8 (WAKL8), showed decreased phloem loading and growth. | Organism | A. thaliana |
