Signal transduction mechanisms of the oxidative stress response in plants

This project studies the signal transduction mechanisms of the oxidative stress response in plants. For hydrogen peroxide inducible proteins, we will determine their subcellular (re)localisation during stress. For proteins with a nuclear relocalisation we will perform a U+2018cytosolic retentionU+2019 screen together with a Tandem Affinity Purification. For a selection of genes, their potential impact on stress tolerance will be assessed.
