INTRODUCTION Sulfur is an essential macronutrient required for the growth and development of all living organisms. Sulfur is present in a wide variety of metabolites important for the maintenance of cell structure and biological activities(Leusteketal.,2000;Takahashietal.,2011).Inthesulfurcyclein nature, plants as producers and soil microorganisms as decomposers use distinct types of substrates in assimilative and dissimilative pathways of sulfur m etabo lism (Takahas hi et al., 2011) . Pla nts utilize su lfate (SO2 (cid:1)), 4 themostoxidizedinorganicformofsulfurforsynthesizingsulfur-contain- ing metabolites (Leustek et al., 2000; Takahashi et al., 2011). In this assi milative path way, plan ts redu ce sulf ate (SO2(cid:1)) to sulf ide (S2(cid:1) ) u sing 4 the energy derived from photosynthesis. Sulfide is subsequently used for synthesizing cysteine and other organic sulfur compounds in the down- stream metabolic pathways. In contrast, soil microorganisms can decom- posesulfatedandsulfonatedcompoundsfromwastesandremainsofplants and animals, and mineralize them to sulfate through the dissimilative oxidation pathway. Sulfur is also cycled in the atmosphere and the aquatic environment. Plants grow in the environment where the availability of sulfur source may change due to climate conditions and other biological and anthropo- genic factors affecting the fluxes of the sulfur cycle. They also experience extreme changes in the environment where production of antioxidants may become crucially important for alleviating the oxidative stresses. Furthermore,plantsareoftenbeingchallengedbypathogensandherbivores. Sinceplantsgrowunder theseadverseenvironmentalconditions,theyhave rationalstrategiestomodulatetheactivityofsulfateassimilationandtoutilize sulfur-containing metabolites to mitigate the stresses. Gene expression and activityofsulfatetransportersandsulfateassimilatoryenzymesarecontrolled inresponsetochangesinsulfatesupplyanddemandfor sulfuratthewhole plantlevel.Sulfur-containingphytoalexins,suchasglucosinolatesandcama- lexins, are synthesized to be used as chemical protectants against pathogens (HalkierandGershenzon,2006;Glawischnig,2007).Thetripeptidegluta- thione(GSH) isessentialfor removalof reactiveoxygenspecies(Foyerand Noctor,2009).PhytochelatinsderivedfromGSHsequesterheavymetalsas metal-thiolateconjugates(Zenk,1996).Sulfurinallthesesulfur-containing metabolites derives from sulfate acquired from the environment.

Molecular mechanisms of sulfate uptake and assimilation have been extensively studied over the past few decades. Precise documentations of biochemical properties, spatial localization, and conditional regulation of sulfatetransportersandmetabolicenzymeshaveextendedourunderstanding of this metabolic pathway in plants. Findings of regulatory components (genes, RNAs, and proteins) for transcriptional and posttranscriptional mechanismshaveprovideduswithcluestoinvestigatetheregulatorypath- ways. Recent studies provide evidence that these regulatory components control sulfate uptake and metabolism in a highly organized manner.

SULFATE TRANSPORT SYSTEMS 2.1 Molecular Cloning of Sulfate Transporter Theexistenceofcarrier-mediatedsulfatetransportsystemsinplantrootshas been suggested from the results of sulfate uptake measurements in physio- logical studies dating back to the 1950s (Leggett and Epstein, 1956). However, the identification of plant genes encoding sulfate transporters was reported years later based on a molecular biological approach using a yeast mutant as a heterologous expression system for cDNA cloning (Smithetal.,1995a).Theyeastmutantslackingtheabilitytotakeupsulfate werefirstisolatedaschromate/selenate-resistantstrains(Smithetal.,1995b). SeveralofthesemutantstrainswerefoundtohavemutationsinageneSUL1 encodingasulfatetransporter.Thesamestrategyalsoledtotheidentification of two homologous genes, SUL1 and SUL2, encoding sulfate transporters having nearly the same biochemical properties (Cherest et al., 1997). Functional complementation of the yeast sulfate transporter mutant was the strategy used for the identification of plant sulfate transporters.
