Gating of aquaporins by heavy metals in Allium cepa L. epidermal cells

Changes in the water permeability, aquaporin (AQP) activity, of leaf cells were investigated in response to different heavy metals (Zn(2+), Pb(2+), Cd(2+), Hg(2+)). The cell pressure probe experiments were performed on onion epidermal cells as a model system. Heavy metal solutions at different conce...
