title: Auxin transport: why plants like to think BIG.
abstract: The regulation of auxin transport via auxin efflux carriers likely plays a central role in a variety of physiological responses in higher plants. With the isolation of BIG, an Arabidopsis protein of enormous size, another potential regulator of auxin transport has been characterized.
