PIN1 mediates vertical transport of IAA from the shoot to the root along the embryonic apical–basal axis and creates an auxin sink that drives basipetal auxin transport upward from the root apex via PIN2 efflux carriers.

Auxin-induced proton extrusion acidifies the cell wall and increases cell extension

Auxin increase the rate of proton extrusion (wall acidification), and the kinetics of proton extrusion should closely match those of auxin-induced growth.
