The antioxidative response, where ascorbate peroxidase (APX) is a key enzyme, is an
integral part of the plant tolerance response to environmental stresses. As a first step …

When plants are exposed to stressful environmental conditions, the production of Reactive
Oxygen Species (ROS) increases and can cause significant damage to the cells. Antioxidant …

Aerobic organisms evolved a complex antioxidant system, which protect the cells against
oxidative damage caused by partially reduced oxygen intermediates, also known as reactive …

The aim of this work was to study the short-term effects of salt stress on the antioxidant
system and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) expression in two salt sensitive sweet potato …

One of the most significant manifestations of environmental stress in plants is the increased
production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). These ROS, if allowed to accumulate …

We isolated a cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (APX-c) from strawberry fruit at the turning (1/2
red) stage and determined its N-terminal amino acid sequence. Using degenerate …

Ascorbate peroxidases (APXs) are heme-dependent H 2 O 2 scavenging enzymes involved
in myriad biological processes. Herein, a total of 21 TaAPX and six TaAPX-R genes were …

Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) plays an important role in the metabolism of hydrogen peroxide
in higher plants, affording them protection against oxidative stress. We studied the effect of …

Ascorbate peroxidases are important enzymes that detoxify hydrogen peroxide within the
cytosol and chloroplasts of plant cells. To better understand their role in oxidative stress …

The role of APX (ascorbate peroxidase) in protection against oxidative stress was examined
using transgenic tobacco plants. The full length cDNA, coding Arabidopsis thaliana L. APX …
