Identification and characterization of interactions between abscisic acid and mitochondrial adenine nucleotide translocators
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABA (abscisic acid) is a plant hormone involved in important processes including development and stress responses. Recent reports have identified a number of plant ABA receptors and transporters, highlighting novel mechanisms of ABA action. In the present paper we describe application of a chemical proteomics approach leading to the identification of mitochondrial ANTs (adenine nucleotide translocators) as ABA-interacting proteins. Initial in vitro studies confirmed inhibition of ANT-dependent ATP translocation by ABA. Further analysis demonstrated ANT-dependent uptake of ABA into both recombinant Arabidopsis thaliana ANT2-containing proteoliposomes and native isolated spinach mitochondria; the latter with a Km of 3.5 μM and a Vmax of 2.5 nmol/min per g of protein. ATP was found to inhibit ANT-dependent ABA translocation. Specificity profiles highlight the possibility of mechanistic differences in translocation of ABA and ATP. Finally, ABA was shown to stimulate ATPase activity in spinach mitochondrial extracts. ABA concentrations in plant cells are estimated to reach the low micromolar range during stress responses, supporting potential physiological relevance of these in vitro findings. Overall, the present in vitro work suggests the possibility of as yet uncharacterized mechanisms of ABA action in planta related to inhibition of mitochondrial ATP translocation and functional localization of ABA in the mitochondrial matrix.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
