Heat and Water Deficit Stress (WDS) tend to impede and restrict the efficiency of photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence, and maximum photochemical quantum yield in plants based on their characteristic ability to interfere with the electron transport ...

Rhodoquinone and Complex II of the Electron Transport Chain in Anaerobically Functioning Eukaryotes [PDF]
Many anaerobically functioning eukaryotes have an anaerobic energy metabolism in which fumarate is reduced to succinate. This reduction of fumarate is the opposite reaction to succinate oxidation catalyzed by succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase, complex II of the aerobic respiratory chain.

To explore the protective mechanisms of brassinosteroids in the chill-induced photoinhibition in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), we studied the effect of foliar sprayed 24-epibrassinolide (EBR, 0.1µM) on the gas exchange, chlorophyll fluorescence ...

Conducting chiral nickel(
Chiral nickel( ii ) bis(dithiolene) complexes based on the mono- and bis-methylated ligands me-dddt and dm-dddt are Mott insulators or band gap semiconductors, with their conductivity modulated by the counter-ion and the number of stereogenic centres.

ETMB-RBF: discrimination of metal-binding sites in electron transporters based on RBF networks with PSSM profiles and significant amino acid pairs. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cellular respiration is the process by which cells obtain energy from glucose and is a very important biological process in living cell. As cells do cellular respiration, they need a pathway to store and transport electrons, the electron ...

Erratum to: Connectivity between electron transport complexes and modulation of photosystem II activity in chloroplasts [PDF]
In chloroplasts, photosynthetic electron transport complexes interact with each other via the mobile electron carriers (plastoquinone and plastocyanin) which are in surplus amounts with respect to photosystem I and photosystem II (PSI and PSII), and the cytochrome b 6 f complex.

Chromophore-Assisted Light Inactivation of Mitochondrial Electron Transport Chain Complex II in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
AbstractMitochondria play critical roles in meeting cellular energy demand, in cell death, and in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and stress signaling. Most Caenorhabditis elegans loss-of-function (lf) mutants in nuclear-encoded components of the respiratory chain are non-viable, emphasizing the importance of respiratory function.
