SUMMARY Drought and seed aging severely impact crop yield and seed vigor, respectively. Here, we identified the rice protein OsNAT9, a nucleobase–ascorbate transporter, as being crucial for seed vigor and drought tolerance. Knockout of OsNAT9 resulted in a significant reduction in seed vigor; however, the application of exogenous ascorbic acid (AsA ...

Abstract Monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR) is an important enzyme that plays a role in the detoxification of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by maintaining reduced pool of ascorbate through recycling the oxidized form of ascorbate. In this study, we isolated a PagMDHAR1 gene from Populus alba × P.

Molecular analysis of monodehydroascorbate reductase and dehydroascorbate reductase in plants
Oxidative stress is an inevitable phenomenon in green plants because they generate toxic reactive oxygen species. Through normal metabolism plants produce copious amount of molecular oxygen in cellular organelles that carry out highly energetic electron ...

Dissecting the Superoxide Dismutase-Ascorbate-Glutathione-Pathway in Chloroplasts by Metabolic modeling. Computer Simulations as a Step towards Flux Analysis [PDF]
The present study introduces metabolic modeling as a new tool to analyze the network of redox reactions composing the superoxide dismutase-ascorbate (Asc)-glutathione (GSH) cycle. Based on previously determined concentrations of antioxi-dants and defense
