Due to its use of green and renewable energy and negligible bacterial resistance,
photocatalytic bacterial inactivation is to be considered a promising sterilization process …

Mitochondrial genomes are remarkably diverse among green plants, and the explosion of
genome sequencing over the last 30 years has greatly expanded our understanding of this …

Higher plants produce four classes of tetrapyrroles, namely, chlorophyll (Chl), heme,
siroheme, and phytochromobilin. In plants, tetrapyrroles play essential roles in a wide range …

The functional content of the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) is highly diverse across
eukaryotes. Among land plants, our understanding of the variation in mitochondrial gene …

Covering: up to July 2008 A discussion of the literature concerning the synthesis, function,
and activity of hemec-containing proteins is presented. Comparison of the properties of …

Mitochondrial and plastid functions depend on coordinated expression of proteins encoded
by genomic compartments that have radical differences in copy number of organellar and …

ABSTRACT RNA helicases participate in nearly all aspects of RNA metabolism by
rearranging RNAs or RNA–protein complexes in an adenosine triphosphate‐dependent …

Cytochromes of c-type contain covalently attached hemes that are formed via thioether
bonds between the vinyls of heme b and cysteines within C 1 XXC 2 H motifs of …

Plant mitochondria play a major role during respiration by producing the ATP required for
metabolism and growth. ATP is produced during oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), a …

Currently, complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are available from all major land
plant lineages except ferns. Sequencing of fern mitogenomes could shed light on the major …
