Physiological regulation underlying the alleviation of cadmium stress in maize seedlings by exogenous glycerol [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Cadmium (Cd) contamination in maize poses a significant threat to global food security due to its persistent accumulation in crops. In this study, the effects of foliar application of glycerol on Cd accumulation in maize seedlings were studied.

On sources of variation in expression of phosphoenolpyruvate-carboxylase in Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.): PEPC genotype, genetic background and growth temperature

open access: closedPublikationer från Örebro universitet, 2004
For gene-enzyme systems in forest trees it is unclear how much structural genetic diversity as compared to diversity of the genetic background contributes to phenotypic variability. The gene-enzyme-system of PEPC-A, phosphoenolpyruvate-carboxylase (PEPCase, EC 4.1.1.3 I), of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) was chosen as an example to ...

The Function of a Maize-Derived Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase (PEPC) in Phosphorus-Deficient Transgenic Rice

open access: yesSoil Science and Plant Nutrition, 2005
Transgenic rice (Oryza sativa L., a C3 plant) lines carrying a complete phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) gene from maize (a C4 plant) were tested for their performance in terms of organic acid synthesis and organic acid exudation into the rhizosphere under phosphorus (P)-deficient conditions.

Regulation of plant glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle by posttranslational modifications. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant J
SUMMARY Plant glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle are key pathways of central carbon metabolism. They facilitate energy transformation, provide redox balance, and supply the building blocks for biosynthetic processes that underpin plant survival, growth, and productivity.

A Synthetic Facultative CAM-Like Shuttle in C<sub>3</sub> Rice Plants. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
This study utilizes gene editing and multigene stacking to design a facultative CAM‐like metabolic pathway that includes a stomatal regulation module, a carboxylation module, a decarboxylation module, and a malate transport module. A facultative CAM‐like metabolic pathway is created in C₃ rice, achieving compatibility between the C₃ cycle and the CAM ...

An in vitro Coupled Assay for PEPC with Control of Bicarbonate Concentration

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2021
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) catalyzes a critical step in carbon metabolism in plants and bacteria, the irreversible reaction between bicarbonate and phosphoenolpyruvate to produce the C4 compound oxaloacetate.

Screening of highly efficient photosynthetic hybrids of Oryza officinalis and analysis of their photosynthetic pathway genes

open access: yesPhotosynthetica, 2021
Hereditary properties of strong growth and huge accumulation of biomass in Oryza officinalis exhibit a great potential; however, the genes that code for its high photosynthesis performance are not established.

Guard cell-specific glycine decarboxylase manipulation affects Arabidopsis photosynthesis, growth and stomatal behavior. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Summary Photorespiration is a mandatory metabolic repair shunt of carbon fixation by the Calvin–Benson cycle in oxygenic phototrophs. Its extent depends mainly on the CO2 : O2 ratio in chloroplasts, which is regulated via stomatal movements. Despite a comprehensive understanding of the role of photorespiration in mesophyll cells, its role in guard ...
