The overexpression and characterisation of Enoyl ACP Reductase from Brassica. napus: a component enzyme of fatty acid synthetase in plants [PDF]
The main objective of this research is to advance our understanding at the structural and expressional level of plant enoyl ACP reductase (ER), the enzyme which catalyses the last reductive step in the de-novo biosynthesis of fatty acids.

Modulation of nitrosative stress by S-nitrosoglutathione reductase is critical for thermotolerance and plant growth in arabidopsis [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) is a key signaling molecule in plants. This analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana HOT5 (sensitive to hot temperatures), which is required for thermotolerance, uncovers a role of NO in thermotolerance and plant development.

Functional characterization of SlscADH1, a fruit-ripening associated short-chain alcohol dehydrogenase of tomato [PDF]
A tomato short-chain dehydrogenase-reductase (SlscADH1) is preferentially expressed in fruit with a maximum expression at the breaker stage while expression in roots, stems, leaves and flowers is very weak.

From static difference to time-resolved spectroscopy of coupled electron and proton transfer in the quinol: fumarate reductase of Wolinella succinogenes [PDF]
The enzyme quinol:fumarate reductase (QFR) from the anaerobic epsilon-proteobacterium Wolinella succinogenes is a membrane protein complex that couples the catalysis of the oxidation of menaquinol to menaquinone to that of the reduction of fumarate to ...
