The systemic production of proteinase inhibitors in young tomato plants is triggered by a complex sequence of events (Figure 23.20):
Wounded tomato leaves synthesize prosystemin, a large (200 amino acids) precursor protein.
Prosystemin is proteolytically processed to produce the short (18 amino acids) polypeptide DAMP called systemin.
Systemin is released from damaged cells into the apoplast.
In adjacent intact tissue (phloem parenchyma), systemin binds to a pattern recognition receptor on the plasma membrane.
The activated systemin receptor becomes phosphorylated and activates a phospholipase A2 (PLA2).
The activated PLA2 generates the signal that initiates JA biosynthesis.
JA is then transported through the phloem to systemic parts of the plant by an unknown mechanism.
JA is taken up by target tissues and activates the expression of genes that encourage proteinase inhibitors.

ok but this sentence was on another diagram she shared:
"cells constantly replace their ATP by whacking a spare phosphate onto ADP"
how delightfully informal! i'm guessing this is British English? but even there I can't imagine this is typical academic textbook language, right? the rest of the sentence was the normal dry explanation.

ATP is a phosphorylating agent (that is, it donates phosphates to other molecules) in many biochemical processes, where it acts as an energy source.

Phosphorylation:Metabolic Pathway
Phosphorylation: The Powerhouse of Cellular Energy
In the bustling world of cells, energy is the driving force behind every process, from building proteins to transporting nutrients. And one of the most crucial players in this energy-generating game is phosphorylation.
What is Phosphorylation?
Phosphorylation is the process of adding a phosphate group (PO43-) to a molecule. This process can…

One of these experiments, carried out by Emerson, measured the quantum yield of photosynthesis as a function of wavelength and revealed an effect known as the red drop (Figure 7.12). (...) The observation that the overall quantum yield of photosynthesis is nearly independent of wavelength (see Figure 7.12) strongly suggests that such a mechanism exists.

Why are so many people so bad at explaining energy transfers? It's already complicated enough, why ya gotta make it even more confusing?

The factors that determine these changes are not completely understood, but changes in the phosphorylation state of PINs mediated by the kinase PINOID and the phosphatase PP2 can have significant effects on PIN localization.
