A broad distribution of the alternative oxidase in microsporidian parasites [PDF]
Microsporidia are a group of obligate intracellular parasitic eukaryotes that were considered to be amitochondriate until the recent discovery of highly reduced mitochondrial organelles called mitosomes. Analysis of the complete genome of Encephalitozoon

Effect of allopurinol on phosphocreatine recovery and muscle function in older people with impaired physical function:a randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Background: Allopurinol has vascular antioxidant effects and participates in purinergic signalling within muscle. We tested whether allopurinol could improve skeletal muscle energetics and physical function in older people with impaired physical ...

Purification of active recombinant trypanosome alternative oxidase [PDF]
Trypanosome alternative oxidase (TAO) is the terminal oxidase of the respiratory chain in long slender bloodstream forms of African trypanosomes. TAO is a cytochrome‐independent, cyanide‐insensitive quinol oxidase. These characteristics are distinct from those of the bacterial quinol oxidases, proteins that belong to the heme‐copper terminal oxidase ...

Alternative final steps in berberine biosynthesis in Coptis japonica cell cultures [PDF]
In Coptis japonica cell cultures an alternative pathway has been discovered which leads from (S)-tetrahydrocolumbamine via (S)-canadine to berberine. The two enzymes involved have been partially purified.

Molecular Biology of the Alternative Oxidase [PDF]
Possibly the most easily recognized component of mitochondrial respiration specific to plants is a second terminal oxidase that has been variously described as being responsible for "cyanide-insensitive respiration," 'cyanide-resistant respiration," or "alternative pathway respiration.' This type of respiration has been best defined in thermogenic ...

Salicylic Acid Can Induce Resistance to Plant Virus Movement
Salicylic acid (SA) treatment has recently been reported to inhibit replication of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in inoculated tissue. Furthermore, resistance is induced via a novel defensive signal transduction pathway sensitive to inhibition by ...

The enhancement of salt stress tolerance by salicylic acid pretreatment in Arabidopsis thaliana
Salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone involved in the activation of defense responses against environmental stresses. However, there are still large of unsolved mysteries about how SA pretreatment affects the establishment of plant stress ...

Effects of OsAOX1a Deficiency on Mitochondrial Metabolism at Critical Node of Seed Viability in Rice
Mitochondrial alternative oxidase 1a (AOX1a) plays an extremely important role in the critical node of seed viability during storage. However, the regulatory mechanism is still poorly understood.
