The Hansenula polymorpha PER8 Gene Encodes a Novel Peroxisomal Integral Membrane Protein Involved in Proliferation [PDF]
We previously described the isolation of mutants of the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha that are defective in peroxisome biogenesis. Here, we describe the characterization of one of these mutants, per8, and the cloning of the PER8 gene.

Alternative oxidase (AOX) constitutes a small family of proteins in Citrus clementina and Citrus sinensis L. Osb. [PDF]
The alternative oxidase (AOX) protein is present in plants, fungi, protozoa and some invertebrates. It is involved in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, providing an alternative route for the transport of electrons, leading to the reduction of oxygen ...

Response of mitochondrial alternative oxidase (AOX) to light signals [PDF]
Mitochondrial alternative oxidase (AOX), the unique respiratory terminal oxidase in plants, catalyzes the energy wasteful cyanide (CN)-resistant respiration and plays a role in optimizing photosynthesis. Recent studies from our group indicated that AOX plays a crucial role in chloroplast protection under extreme environments, such as high light (HL ...

Application of abscisic acid prevents leaf senescence at decreased irradiance
Several lines of evidence suggest that plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) and the activity of alternative respiratory pathway are somehow interrelated. In this paper, we tested how an application of ABA affects the alternative oxidase (AOX) pathway and ...

Structure of Alcohol Oxidase from Pichia pastoris by Cryo-Electron Microscopy. [PDF]
The first step in methanol metabolism in methylotrophic yeasts, the oxidation of methanol and higher alcohols with molecular oxygen to formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide, is catalysed by alcohol oxidase (AOX), a 600-kDa homo-octamer containing eight FAD ...

Evaluation of some defense enzymes activities in chickpea plants under cold stress [PDF]
Plants require different defensive mechanisms for being survive and tolerance to environmental stresses. In present study, activity of defensive enzymes such as alternative oxidase (AOX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), electrolyte leakage ...

Effects of long-term soluble vs. insoluble dietary fiber intake on high-fat diet-induced obesity in C57BL/6J mice [PDF]
Although most of the proposed beneficial effects of fiber consumption have been attributed to viscous and gel-forming properties of soluble fiber, it is mainly insoluble cereal fiber and whole grains that are strongly associated with reduced diabetes ...

Bioremediation of AOX from pulp and paper industry wastewater and AOX contaminated soils
Bleaching of paper pulp with chlorine/ chlorine derivatives leads to formation of severalorganochlorine compounds. These compounds are collectively termed as "Adsorbable OrganicHalides" (AOX). Toxic effects of AOX are well documented. Analysis of various wastewaters,soils irrigated with wastewater and sludge show significant levels of AOX.
