The return of metabolism: biochemistry and physiology of glycolysis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycolysis is a fundamental metabolic pathway central to the bioenergetics and physiology of virtually all living organisms. In this comprehensive review, we explore the intricate biochemical principles and evolutionary origins of glycolytic pathways, from the classical Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) pathway in humans to various prokaryotic and ...

The differential carbon-fixing and nitrogen-assimilating enzyme activities of Oscillatorian marine cyanobacterium Phormidium valderianum BDU 20041

open access: yesPhotosynthetica, 2019
We have identified an efficient filamentous marine cyanobacterium, Phormidium valderianum BDU 20041, which was adaptive to different concentrations of CO2. In our study, P. valderianum BDU 20041 was grown under ambient (0.04) and elevated (2, 3, 4, 5, 10,

Differences in Physiological Responses of Two Oat (Avena nuda L.) Lines to Sodic-Alkalinity in the Vegetative Stage

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Sodic-alkalinity is a more seriously limiting factor in agricultural productivity than salinity. Oat (Avena nuda) is a salt-tolerant crop species and is therefore useful in studying the physiological responses of cereals to alkalinity.

Bacterial‐ and plant‐type phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase polypeptides interact in the hetero‐oligomeric Class‐2 PEPC complex of developing castor oil seeds [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2007
SummaryTwo classes of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) sharing the same 107‐kDa catalytic subunit (p107) were previously purified from developing castor oil seed (COS) endosperm. The association of p107 with an immunologically unrelated 64‐kDa polypeptide (p64) causes pronounced physical and kinetic differences between the Class‐1 PEPC p107 ...

Fruit respiration: putting alternative pathways into perspective

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Over the past century, research has significantly advanced our understanding of fruit respiration, from (eco)physiological processes to molecular mechanisms. This review focuses on the functional relevance and regulatory roles of mitochondrial alternative respiratory pathways (ARPs) during fruit growth and ripening.

Application of a Novel and Automated Branched DNA in Situ Hybridization Method for the Rapid and Sensitive Localization of mRNA Molecules in Plant Tissues

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, 2014
Premise of the study: A novel branched DNA detection technology, RNAscope in situ hybridization (ISH), originally developed for use on human clinical and animal tissues, was adapted for use in plant tissue in an attempt to overcome some of the ...

Optimization of carbon and nitrogen utilization for enhanced photosynthesis, biomass and yield by coexpression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, aspartate aminotransferase and glutamine synthetase in Brassica juncea

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Coexpression of genes involved in carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) metabolism offers a promising avenue for improving crop yield. This study investigated the impact of coexpressing phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase [ZmPEPC (P)], aspartate aminotransferase [GmAspAT (A)] and glutamine synthetase [NtGS (G)] in Brassica juncea to enhance plant yield ...

Interaction of polyethylene glycol-6000 with C4 phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase in crude leaf extracts as well as in purified protein form from Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.: evidence for oligomerization of PEPC in vitro and in vivo [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiology and Molecular Biology of Plants, 2008
The interaction of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) with a compatible solute, PEG-6000, was examined using crude leaf extracts as well as the purified protein from leaves of Amaranthus hypochondriacus, a NAD-malic enzyme type C4 plant. The inclusion in the assay medium of PEG-6000 stimulated the activity of purified PEPC by about 2.5-fold over ...
