520 3 # |a This book, divided into 5 parts, deals with topics on amino acids in higher plants. Part I (enzymes and metabolism) contains 16 chapters pursuing the theme of amino acid metabolism through the driving actions of the principal enzymes, emphasizing recent advances particularly with reference to localization, biophysical characterization and regulation. Part II (dynamics) includes two chapters designed to explore transport dynamics at the cellular and whole plant levels and the relationship to external factors. Part III (chemical ecology) contains 6 chapters designed to encapsulate the theme of biochemical diversity with reference to the impact of amino acids and related derivatives on metabolic pathways, ecology and the environment. Part IV (plant products: quality and safety) has 3 chapters indicating the potential and actual value of plant products as sources of amino acids for the nutrition of humans and other vertebrates. The primary objective in the final part is to collate the main findings in the foregoing chapters within an integrated overview. Issues such as comparative metabolism, signal transduction and molecular interactions may be considered within a more comprehensive perspective. Similarly, the effects of biotic and environmental pressures on amino acid metabolism and defence mechanisms may be developed into an integrated model of plant responses to a changing environment.
