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 ...

Cytochrome oxidase: an alternative model. [PDF]
Oxidative titration of reduced cytochrome oxidase (cytochrome c oxidase; ferrocytochrome c:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.9.3.1) in the presence of carbon monoxide and sulfide, at potentials greater than +500 mV (vs. the neutral hydrogen electrode), have failed to produce new copper signals in the electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum of this enzyme ...

Trypanosome alternative oxidase as a target of chemotherapy
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.

Copper Metabolism in Naegleria gruberi and Its Deadly Relative Naegleria fowleri
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.

Role of urate, xanthine oxidase and the effects of allopurinol in vascular oxidative stress [PDF]
Oxidative stress plays an important role in the progression of vascular endothelial dysfunction. The two major systems generating vascular oxidative stress are the NADPH oxidase and the xanthine oxidase pathways. Allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor,
