Alternative oxidase (AOX) represents a non-energy conserving pathway within the
mitochondrial electron transport chain. One potential physiological role of AOX could be to …

Nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as an important signaling molecule in plants, but little is
known about the effects of reactive nitrogen species in plant mitochondria. In this study, the …

Due to the sessile nature of plants, it is crucial for their survival and growth that they can
handle a constantly changing, and thus stressful, ambient environment by modifying their …

The respiration of mitochondria isolated from germinating soybean cotyledons was strongly
resistant to antimycin and KCN. This oxygen uptake was not related to lipoxygenase which …

▪ Abstract The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as O2− and H2O2, is an
unavoidable consequence of aerobic metabolism. In plant cells the mitochondrial electron …

Enzyme distribution in potato mitochondria was investigated by selectively disrupting the
outer and inner membranes with digitonin. Antimycin-insensitive NADH-cytochrome c …

In plants, the existence of a mitochondrial potassium channel was firstly demonstrated about
15 years ago in durum wheat as an ATP-dependent potassium channel (PmitoK ATP). Since …

The uncoupler-stimulated ATPase activity of castor bean endosperm mitochondria and
submitochondrial particles has been studied. The rate of ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by intact …

Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) has been purified from potato tuber (Solanum tuberosum L.)
mitochondria. The potato enzyme appeared to be localized inside mitochondria. The …

The regulation of alternative oxidase activity by the effector pyruvate was investigated in
soybean (Glycine max L.) mitochondria using developmental changes in roots and …
