Trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P) is a sugar phosphate that acts as a signal molecule in plants, fungi, and bacteria. It plays a crucial role in regulating carbohydrate metabolism, stress responses, and growth. T6P is synthesized from trehalose by the enzyme trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS). It acts as a positive regulator of sugar import and storage, promoting the accumulation of starch in plants and glycogen in fungi. Research on T6P has focused on its role in improving plant growth and yield under stress conditions, such as drought and salinity. Furthermore, T6P has been shown to regulate the expression of genes involved in stress response pathways, including those related to osmotic stress, oxidative stress, and pathogen resistance. The study of T6P is important for understanding the complex regulatory networks that govern plant development, stress responses, and energy metabolism.'
