ATP-sulfurylase, sulfur-compounds and plant stress tolerance

Sulfur (S) stands fourth in the list of major plant nutrients after N, P and K. Sulfate (SO42-), a form of soil-S taken up by plant roots is metabolically inert. As the first committed step of S-assimilation, ATP-sulfurylase (ATP-S) catalyzes SO42--activation and yields activated high-energy compoun...
