Effect of cadmium on antioxidative enzymes, glutathione content, and glutathionylation in tall fescue

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2014
The aim of this work was to assess the effect of different Cd2+concentrations on some antioxidant enzymes in Festuca arundinacea. Increased activities of ascorbate peroxidase, monodehydroascorbate reductase, dehydroascorbate reductase, glutathione S ...

Proteome readjustments in the apoplastic space of Arabidopsis thaliana ggt1 mutant leaves exposed to UV-B radiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ultraviolet-B radiation acts as an environmental stimulus, but in high doses it has detrimental effects on plant metabolism. Plasma membranes represent a major target for ROS generated by this harmful radiation.

Characterization and Structural Determination of Cold-Adapted Monodehydroascorbate Reductase, MDHAR, from the Antarctic Hairgrass Deschampsia Antarctica

open access: yesCrystals, 2019
Ascorbic acid (AsA) is an abundant component of plants and acts as a strong and active antioxidant. In order to maintain the antioxidative capacity of AsA, the rapid regeneration of AsA is regulated by dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) and ...

Protocol: optimised electrophyiological analysis of intact guard cells from arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Genetic resources available for Arabidopsis thaliana make this species particularly attractive as a model for molecular genetic studies of guard cell homeostasis, transport and signalling, but this facility is not matched by accessible tools for ...

Identification and Analysis of Proteins Sharing Dehydroascorbate Reductase Activity

open access: yesBiologia plantarum, 2002
Dehydroascorbate (DHA)-reducing proteins were observed using a native-PAGE/activity staining method, and identified in soybean and rice by Western analysis using antibodies against homologous protein known to catalyse DHA reduction. Administration of 1 mM DHA apparently did not trigger DHA reductase activity in lupin and onion, whereas activity was ...

Nitric oxide is involved in the regulation of ascorbate and glutathione metabolism in Agropyron cristatum leaves under water stress

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2012
This study investigated the regulation of ascorbate and glutathione metabolism by nitric oxide in Agropyron cristatum leaves under water stress. The activities of ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), monodehydroascorbate reductase ...

Proteomic changes and molecular effects associated with Cr(III) and Cr(VI) treatments on germinating kiwifruit pollen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The present study is aimed at identifying molecular changes elicited by Cr(III) and Cr(VI) on germinating kiwifruit pollen. To address this question, comparative proteomic and DNA laddering analyses were performed. While no genotoxic effect was detected,

Ex vitro acclimatization of plantain plantlets micropropagated in temporary immersion bioreactor

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2010
Plantain (Musa ABB CEMSA 3/4) plantlets were micropropagated in temporary immersion bioreactors (TIB) or in gelled medium (GM). After ex vitro transfer ROS accumulation was determined by infiltrating leaves with nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) and 3,3 ...

The evolution of glutathione metabolism in phototrophic microorganisms [PDF]

open access: yes
The low molecular weight thiol composition of a variety of phototropic microorganisms is examined in order to ascertain how evolution of glutathione (GSH) production is related to the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis.
