Resumo(s)

"Plant metabolism is tightly controlled to ensure that carbon resources are optimally invested to maximize growth and fitness. One major regulatory system involved in metabolic control is the so-called sucrose-trehalose 6-phosphate (Tre6P) nexus. In this system, Tre6P mirrors sucrose levels and acts as a signal of sucrose availability, regulating its synthesis and consumption to maintain sucrose within optimal levels. This is partly achieved by the diversion of photoassimilates towards organic and amino-acid synthesis when sucrose levels (and in consequence Tre6P) rise, thereby reducing further production of sucrose.(...)"
