Arabidopsis seed development and germination is associated with temporally distinct metabolic switches

A Fait, R Angelovici, H Less, I Ohad… - Plant …, 2006 - academic.oup.com
While the metabolic networks in developing seeds during the period of reserve accumulation
have been extensively characterized, much less is known about those present during seed …

Highway or byway: the metabolic role of the GABA shunt in plants

A Fait, H Fromm, D Walter, G Galili, AR Fernie - Trends in plant science, 2008 - cell.com
Much of the recent work on the γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) shunt in plants has concentrated on
stress/pest-associated and signalling roles. However, fifty years after the structural …

Reconfiguration of the achene and receptacle metabolic networks during strawberry fruit development

A Fait, K Hanhineva, R Beleggia, N Dai… - Plant …, 2008 - academic.oup.com
The anatomy of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) fruit, in which the achene is found on the
outer part of the fruit, makes it an excellent species for studying the regulation of fruit …

Seed desiccation: a bridge between maturation and germination

R Angelovici, G Galili, AR Fernie, A Fait - Trends in plant science, 2010 - cell.com
The development of orthodox seeds concludes by a desiccation phase. The dry seeds then
enter a phase of dormancy, also called the after-ripening phase, and become competent for …

Auto-deconvolution and molecular networking of gas chromatography–mass spectrometry data

…, S Prevost, A Poirier, G Dervilly, B Le Bizec, A Fait… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
We engineered a machine learning approach, MSHub, to enable auto-deconvolution of gas
chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) data. We then designed workflows to enable …

A mitochondrial GABA permease connects the GABA shunt and the TCA cycle, and is essential for normal carbon metabolism

S Michaeli, A Fait, K Lagor, A Nunes‐Nesi… - The Plant …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
In plants, γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) accumulates in the cytosol in response to a variety of
stresses. GABA is transported into mitochondria, where it is catabolized into TCA cycle or …

Network analysis: tackling complex data to study plant metabolism

D Toubiana, AR Fernie, Z Nikoloski, A Fait - Trends in biotechnology, 2013 - cell.com
Incomplete knowledge of biochemical pathways makes the holistic description of plant
metabolism a non-trivial undertaking. Sensitive analytical platforms, which are capable of …

Mitochondrial succinic-semialdehyde dehydrogenase of the γ-aminobutyrate shunt is required to restrict levels of reactive oxygen intermediates in plants

N Bouché, A Fait, D Bouchez… - Proceedings of the …, 2003 - National Acad Sciences
The γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) shunt is a metabolic pathway that bypasses two steps of the
tricarboxylic acid cycle, and it is present in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In plants the …
