Identification and characterization of aldehyde oxidases (AOXs) in the cotton bollworm [PDF]

The Science of Nature, 2017
Aldehyde oxidases (AOXs) are a family of metabolic enzymes that oxidize aldehydes into carboxylic acids; therefore, they play critical roles in detoxification and degradation of chemicals. By using transcriptomic and genomic approaches, we successfully identified six putative AOX genes (HarmAOX1-6) from cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner ...

Generation, Transfer, and Loss of Alternative Oxidase Paralogues in the Aspergillaceae Family

Journal of Fungi, 2023
Alternative oxidase (Aox) is a terminal oxidase operating in branched electron transport. The activity correlates positively with overflow metabolisms in certain Aspergilli, converting intracellular glucose by the shortest possible path into organic ...

Effects of protected complex of biofactors and antioxidants on growth performance, serum biochemistry, meat quality, and intestinal antioxidant and immunomodulatory-related gene expressions of broiler chickens

Poultry Science, 2023
: One-day-old male broiler chickens (Ross 308) were assigned to 3 dietary treatments in a completely randomized design with 8 replicates per treatment, and 4 birds per replicate.

Inhibition of alternative oxidase disrupts the development and oviposition of Biomphalaria glabrata snails

Parasites & Vectors, 2023
Background Biomphalaria glabrata is one of the main intermediate hosts of Schistosoma mansoni, the most widespread species of Schistosoma. Our previous studies proved that alternative oxidase (AOX), the terminal oxidase in the mitochondrial respiratory ...

Alternative Oxidase (AOX) Genes of African Trypanosomes: Phylogeny and Evolution of AOX and Plastid Terminal Oxidase Families

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 2005
Abstract. To clarify evolution and phylogenetic relationships of trypanosome alternative oxidase (AOX) molecules, AOX genes (cDNAs) of the African trypanosomes, Trypanosoma congolense and Trypanosoma evansi, were cloned by PCR. Both AOXs possess conserved consensus motifs (‐E‐, ‐EXXH‐). The putative amino acid sequence of the AOX of T.

Kinetics of AOX Formation in Chlorine Dioxide Bleaching of Bagasse Pulp

BioResources, 2014
In this paper, a kinetic model of the first chlorine dioxide bleaching stage (D0) in an elemental chlorine-free (ECF) bleaching sequence is presented for bagasse pulps. The model is based on the rate of adsorbable organic halogen (AOX) formation.

Aox gene structure, transcript variation and expression in plants [PDF]

Physiologia Plantarum, 2009
Alternative oxidase (Aox) has been proposed as a functional marker for breeding stress tolerant plant varieties. This requires presence of polymorphic Aox allele sequences in plants that affect plant phenotype in a recognizable way. In this review, we examine the hypothesis that organization of genomic Aox sequences and gene expression patterns are ...

Metal nanostructure‐coupled label‐free localized surface plasmon resonance biosensors for rapid and sensitive disease diagnosis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
LSPR biosensing enables rapid, sensitive, and low‐sample‐volume detection of biomarkers, with broad applications in diagnosing cancer, infectious, and chronic diseases. Advances in nanostructure design, micro/nanofabrication, and microfluidic integration have expanded the potential of LSPR sensors in biomedical diagnostics.

STAT5 activators modulate acyl CoA oxidase (AOX) expression in adipocytes and STAT5A binds to the AOX promoter in vitro

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2006
Growth hormone (GH) diminishes adipose tissue mass in vivo and prolactin (PRL) can also modulate adipocyte metabolism. Both GH and PRL are potent activators of STAT5 and exert a variety of effects on adipocyte gene expression. In this study, we have demonstrated that GH and PRL increase the mRNA of acyl CoA oxidase in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
