Popis: In this study, our fundamental research interest was to understand how negatively charged porphyrins could interact with a plant cell wall and further act inside cells. Thus, three anionic porphyrins differing in their anionic external groups (carboxylates, sulfonates, and phosphonates) were tested. First, the tobacco cell wall was isolated to monitor in vitro its interactions with the three different anionic porphyrins. Unexpectedly, these negatively charged molecules were able to bind to the negatively charged cell wall probably by weak bonds such as hydrogen bonds and/or electrostatic interactions when the tetrapyrrolic core was protonated. Moreover, we showed that at the pH of spent culture medium (4.5), the neutrality of the carboxylated porphyrin (TPPC) facilitated its cell wall crossing while the diffusion of the two other sulfonated (TPPS) or phosphonated (TPPP) porphyrins that remained anionic was delayed. Once inside Tobacco Bright Yellow-2 (TBY-2) cells, TPPC induced higher levels of production of both H
