Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Plants contain different proteins involved in processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, growth and development, support, transport, immunity, and cell metabolism.
There is currently a growing interest in the study of plant proteins. These can accumulate in different tissues for various cellular functions. Thus, knowing more in detail about the different functions of these proteins becomes highly important for their applications in the field of biotechnology, medicine, pharmacology, food, and structural biology.
This Special Issue tries to compile works where different aspects of plant proteins are studied, from their structural, regulatory, and functional characteristics to their ability to interact with other ligands and proteins.
