Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
The introduction provides an overview of the Germin and Germin-like protein family and their relevance to salt stress in plants. The chapter on salt stress discusses the challenges posed by soil salinity and alkalinity to plant growth and survival, including osmotic stress, ion toxicity, and pH imbalances. The chapter on Germin and Germin-like proteins explores the structure, function, and distribution of these proteins in various plant species. The chapter on the crystal structure of Germin describes the detailed structure of the protein at the atomic level, highlighting its stability and resistance to denaturing agents. The chapter on isoforms of Germin discusses the various forms of Germin found in different plants and their specific roles in stress response. The chapter on biochemical properties provides an overview of the enzymatic activities and other biochemical characteristics of Germin and Germin-like proteins. The chapter on Germin and Germin-like protein related genes explores the genetic basis of the Germin family, including gene expression patterns under different conditions. Finally, the chapter on salt-induced gene expression of Germin examines how the expression of Germin genes is regulated by salt stress and its implications for plant tolerance.
