Adaptation responses in C4 photosynthesis of sweet maize (Zea mays L.) exposed to nicosulfuron
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021 Nicosulfuron is an ingredient in photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicides and has been widely used in corn post-emergence weed control. In the current study, a pair of sister lines, HK301 (nicosulfuron-tolerence, NT) and HK320 (nicosulfuron-sensitive, NS ...

NADPH Dehydrogenase Gene Regulates Energy Distribution and Fatty Acid Metabolism During Fruiting Body Formation in the Filamentous Fungus Podospora anserina. [PDF]
Microb BiotechnolNADPH dehydrogenase gene deletion significantly triggered NADPH/NADP+ increase in mutant strains. NADPH gene deletion promoted Fatty acid biosynthesis and repressed β‐oxidation. NADPH gene deletion decreased oxidative phosphorylation and increased substrate‐level phosphorylation. Mutants exhibited hypersensitivity to oxidative stress, but promoted more

Plant Production Science, 2021 C4 plants have higher photosynthetic nitrogen- and water-use efficiencies (PNUE and PWUE) than C3 plants. Some studies on C4 grasses have reported that NADP-malic enzyme (NADP-ME) grasses have higher PNUE than NAD-malic enzyme (NAD-ME) grasses, whereas ...

A Comprehensive Analysis of the NADP-Malic Enzyme Gene Family of Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2005 Abstract The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) genome contains four genes encoding putative NADP-malic enzymes (MEs; AtNADP-ME1–ME4). NADP-ME4 is localized to plastids, whereas the other three isoforms do not possess any predicted organellar targeting sequence and are therefore expected to be cytosolic.

Elements Required for an Efficient NADP-Malic Enzyme Type C4 Photosynthesis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2014 Abstract C4 photosynthesis has higher light, nitrogen, and water use efficiencies than C3 photosynthesis. Although the basic anatomical, cellular, and biochemical features of C4 photosynthesis are well understood, the quantitative significance of each element of C4 photosynthesis to the high photosynthetic efficiency are not well defined.

Bio-Protocol, 2014 A recent study demonstrated that cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and NADP-malic enzyme (NADP-ME) have an important role in malate metabolism during fruit ripening (Osorio et al., 2013). PEPCK catalyze the ATP-dependent decarboxylation
