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 ...

Perspectives on functions of AOX and UCP in floral thermogenesis [PDF]
Some plants can produce a considerable amount of heat in flowers. The animal-like thermogenesis plays various roles in multiple biological processes, which is critical in reproduction of plants. Great attention has been drawn to explore floral thermogenesis and the underlying regulatory mechanisms.

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 ...

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

Background It is known that excess reducing equivalents in the form of NADPH in chloroplasts can be transported via shuttle machineries, such as the malate-oxaloacetate (OAA) shuttle, into the mitochondria, where they are efficiently oxidised by the ...
