Plant Proteomics in Heavy Metal Remediation

Abiotic stress poses major challenges to the environment, and increasing efforts are being made to understand plant stress responses and tolerance mechanisms. These efforts aim to develop new tools for the successful remediation of such stressors through phytoremediation, which forms the basis of this book. The book provides an in-depth understanding of the molecular and remediation mechanisms of Phyto metalloproteins, enabling a comprehensive view of plant responses to metal stress.Focuses on metalloproteins in plants in relation to phytoremediationDiscusses research challenges and encourages the application of Phyto metalloprotein techniquesExplores the molecular aspects of phytoremediation for metal detoxificationIncludes fundamental concepts of plant physiology and proteomics for a better understanding of remediation mechanismsReviews key mechanisms involved in rational protein engineering combined with metabolic engineering strategiesThis book is intended for researchers and graduate students in remediation, plant biochemistry, cellular biology, environmental sciences, and engineering.
