Polar auxin transport is a quintessential feature of higher plant physiology and it has been known for many years that some of the primary drivers of polar auxin transport are the PIN-formed (PIN) auxin efflux proteins. Formative research established many key biochemical features of the transport system and discovered inhibitors such as 1-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA), but the mechanism of action of PINs has remained elusive. This changed in 2022 with the publication of high-resolution structure ...[more]
