Alternative oxidase‐mediated respiration prevents lethal mitochondrial cardiomyopathy
Alternative oxidase (AOX) is a non‐mammalian enzyme that can bypass blockade of the complex III‐IV segment of the respiratory chain (RC). We crossed a Ciona intestinalis AOX transgene into RC complex III (cIII)‐deficient Bcs1lp.S78G knock‐in mice ...

The Complementary Roles of Chloroplast Cyclic Electron Transport and Mitochondrial Alternative Oxidase to Ensure Photosynthetic Performance [PDF]
Chloroplasts use light energy and a linear electron transport (LET) pathway for the coupled generation of NADPH and ATP. It is widely accepted that the production ratio of ATP to NADPH is usually less than required to fulfill the energetic needs of the ...

Structural and Biophysical Characterization of Purified Recombinant Arabidopsis thaliana's Alternative Oxidase 1A (rAtAOX1A): Interaction With Inhibitor(s) and Activator [PDF]
In higher plants, alternative oxidase (AOX) participates in a cyanide resistant and non-proton motive electron transport pathway of mitochondria, diverging from the ubiquinone pool. The physiological significance of AOX in biotic/abiotic stress tolerance

Alternative oxidase involvement in Daucus carota somatic embryogenesis [PDF]
Plant alternative oxidase (AOX) is a mitochondrial inner membrane enzyme involved in alternative respiration.The critical importance of the enzyme during acclimation upon stress of plant cells is not fully understood and is still an issue of intensive ...

Alternative oxidase in bacteria.
While alternative oxidase (AOX) was discovered in bacteria in 2003, the expression, function, and evolutionary history of this protein in these important organisms is largely unexplored. To date, expression and functional analysis is limited to studies in the Proteobacteria Novosphingobium aromaticivorans and Vibrio fischeri, where AOX likely plays ...

Alternative Oxidase Alleviates Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress during Limited Nitrate Reduction in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
The conversion of nitrate to ammonium, i.e., nitrate reduction, is a major consumer of reductants in plants. Previous studies have reported that the mitochondrial alternative oxidase (AOX) is upregulated under limited nitrate reduction conditions ...

Bilirubin oxidase from myrothecium verrucaria physically absorbed on graphite electrodes. Insights into the alternative resting from and the sources of activity loss [PDF]
The oxygen reduction reaction is one of the most important chemical processes in energy converting systems and living organisms. Mediator-less, direct electro-catalytic reduction of oxygen to water was achieved on spectrographite electrodes modified by

Alternative oxidase and plant stress tolerance [PDF]
Alternative oxidase (AOX) is one of the terminal oxidases of the plant mitochondrial electron transport chain. AOX acts as a means to relax the highly coupled and tensed electron transport process in mitochondria thus providing and maintaining the much needed metabolic homeostasis by directly reducing oxygen to water.
