Plant extracellular ATP signalling: new insight from proteomics.

abstract：:Metabolomics is a rapidly growing branch of post-genomic chemical biology. The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe is an excellent eukaryotic model organism. Although the entire S. pombe genome has been sequenced and detailed transcriptomic analyses were performed, little metabolic profiling has been done. Here we...
