Comparison of the Kinetic Parameters of Alternative Oxidases From Trypanosoma brucei and Arabidopsis thaliana—A Tale of Two Cavities

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The alternative oxidase (AOX) is widespread in plants, fungi, and some protozoa. While the general structure of the AOX remains consistent, its overall activity, sources of kinetic activation and their sensitivity to inhibitors varies between species. In

Trypanosome alternative oxidase as a target of chemotherapy

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2002
Parasites have developed a variety of physiological functions necessary for their survival within the specialized environment of the host. Using metabolic systems that are very different from those of the host, they can adapt to low oxygen tension present within the host animals.

The role of mitochondria in response of wild grass Elymus sibiricus L. seedlings to temperature stress, water deficiency and hydrogen peroxide exposure [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2011
The relationship between energetic parameters and content of stress proteins (alternative oxidase, uncoupling protein and HSP70) in wild grass Elymus sibiricus mitochondria during different stress exposure (cold hardening, cold shock, high-temperature ...

Copper Metabolism in Naegleria gruberi and Its Deadly Relative Naegleria fowleri

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Although copper is an essential nutrient crucial for many biological processes, an excessive concentration can be toxic and lead to cell death. The metabolism of this two-faced metal must be strictly regulated at the cell level.

Analysis of the Alternative Oxidase Promoters from Soybean [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2003
Abstract Alternative oxidase (Aox) is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial protein. In soybean (Glycine max), the three members of the gene family have been shown to be differentially expressed during normal plant development and in response to stresses.

Altering the balance between AOX1A and NDB2 expression affects a common set of transcripts in Arabidopsis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Stress-responsive components of the mitochondrial alternative electron transport pathway have the capacity to improve tolerance of plants to abiotic stress, particularly the alternative oxidase AOX1A but also external NAD(P)H dehydrogenases such as NDB2,

Efficient Photosynthetic Functioning of Arabidopsis thaliana Through Electron Dissipation in Chloroplasts and Electron Export to Mitochondria Under Ammonium Nutrition

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
An improvement in photosynthetic rate promotes the growth of crop plants. The sink-regulation of photosynthesis is crucial in optimizing nitrogen fixation and integrating it with carbon balance.

Mitochondrial alternative oxidase pathway acts as an electron sink during photosynthetic induction in Rumex K-1 leaves

open access: yesPhotosynthetica, 2021
Chloroplast PSII photochemical efficiency is upregulated more rapidly than CO2 assimilation during photosynthesis induction, suggesting the existence of other electron sinks than that of CO2 assimilation.

Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Alternative oxidase in higher plants.

open access: yesActa Biochimica Polonica, 2003
Plant respiratory chain branches at the level of ubiquinone from where the electrons flow through the cytochrome pathway or to alternative oxidase. Transfer of electrons from ubiquinone to oxygen by alternative oxidase has a non-protonmotive character and, by bypassing two sites of H+ pumping in complexes III and IV, lowers the energy efficiency of ...
