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.

Reprogramming Hansenula polymorpha for penicillin production: expression of the Penicillium chrysogenum pcl gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We aim to introduce the penicillin biosynthetic pathway into the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha. To allow simultaneous expression of the multiple genes of the penicillin biosynthetic pathway, additional markers were required.

Hypothesized evolutionary consequences of the alternative oxidase (AOX) in animal mitochondria.

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2019
The environment in which eukaryotes first evolved was drastically different from what they experience today, and one of the key limiting factors was the availability of oxygen for mitochondrial respiration.

Alternative oxidase confers nutritional limitation on Drosophila development [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, 2019
AbstractThe mitochondrial alternative oxidase, AOX, present in most eukaryotes apart from vertebrates and insects, catalyzes the direct oxidation of ubiquinol by oxygen, by‐passing the terminal proton‐motive steps of the respiratory chain. Its physiological role is not fully understood, but it is proposed to buffer stresses in the respiratory chain ...

Toward More Drug Like Inhibitors of Trypanosome Alternative Oxidase [PDF]

open access: yesACS Infectious Diseases, 2018
New tools are required to ensure the adequate control of the neglected tropical disease human African trypanosomiasis. Annual reports of infection have recently fallen to fewer than 5000 cases per year; however, current therapies are hard to administer and have safety concerns and, hence, are far from ideal.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Gly Betaine Surpasses Melatonin to Improve Salt Tolerance in Dalbergia odorifera

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Salinity is one of the most serious factors limiting plant growth which can provoke significant losses in agricultural crop production, particularly in arid and semi-arid areas.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Ascorbate synthesis as an alternative electron source for mitochondrial respiration: Possible implications for the plant performance

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The molecule vitamin C, in the chemical form of ascorbic acid (AsA), is known to be essential for the metabolism of humans and animals. Humans do not produce AsA, so they depend on plants as a source of vitamin C for their food. The AsA synthesis pathway

Catalytic fuel cell used as an analytical tool for methanol and ethanol determination. Application to ethanol determination in alcoholic beverages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A small direct catalytic methanol 'fuel cell' was used for analytical purposes. Three different formats were investigated for methanol and ethanol determination: two different Open Circuit Voltage (OCV) formats and a potentiostatic (i.e.
