Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carriers Prevent Cadmium Toxicity by Sustaining the TCA Cycle and Glutathione Synthesis

The quality and safety of agricultural products will be improved greatly once scientists better understand how heavy metals, like cadmium, are absorbed and regulated by plants. Here, technologies like NMT allow researchers to monitor the fluxes of Cd2+ in and out of live samples which provides direct evidence for this innovative discovery.
