Photorespiration: regulation and new insights on the potential role of persulfidation
(Oxford University Press, 2023-07-24)
Photorespiration has been considered a 'futile' cycle in C3 plants, necessary to detoxify and recycle the metabolites generated by the oxygenating activity of Rubisco. However, several reports indicate that this metabolic ...

Mitochondrial Sulfide Detoxification Requires a Functional Isoform O-Acetylserine(thiol)lyase C in Arabidopsis thaliana
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
In non-cyanogenic species, the main source of cyanide derives from ethylene and camalexin biosyntheses. In mitochondria, cyanide is a potent inhibitor of the cytochrome c oxidase and is metabolised by the β-Cyanoalanine ...

The cytochrome f–plastocyanin complex as a model to study transient interactions between redox proteins
(Wiley, 2012)
Transient complexes, with a lifetime ranging between microseconds and seconds, are essential forbiochemical reactions requiring a fast turnover. That is the case of the interactions between proteinsengaged in electron ...

Photosynthetic Adaptation to Length of Day Is Dependent on S-Sulfocysteine Synthase Activity in the Thylakoid Lumen
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2012)
Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) chloroplasts contain two O-acetyl-serine(thiol)lyase (OASTL) homologs, OAS-B, which is an authentic OASTL, and CS26, which has S-sulfocysteine synthase activity. In contrast with OAS-B, ...

The Functional Relationship between NADPH Thioredoxin Reductase C, 2-Cys Peroxiredoxins, and m-Type Thioredoxins in the Regulation of Calvin–Benson Cycle and Malate-Valve Enzymes in Arabidopsis
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-05-03)
The concerted regulation of chloroplast biosynthetic pathways and NADPH extrusion via malate valve depends on f and m thioredoxins (Trxs). The finding that decreased levels of the thiol-peroxidase 2-Cys peroxiredoxin (Prx) ...

Stress response requires an efficient connection between glycogen and central carbon metabolism by phosphoglucomutases in cyanobacteria
(Oxford University Press, 2023-03-13)
Glycogen and starch are the main storage polysaccharides, acting as a source of carbon and energy when necessary. Interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate by phosphoglucomutases connects the metabolism ...

Structural and Functional Analysis of Novel Human Cytochrome c Targets in Apoptosis
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2014)
Since the first description of apoptosis four decades ago, great efforts have been made to elucidate, both in vivo and in vitro, the molecular mechanisms involved in its regulation. Although the role of cytochrome c during ...

Molecular recognition in the interaction of chloroplast 2-Cys peroxiredoxin with NADPH-thioredoxin reductase C (NTRC) and thioredoxin x
(Elsevier, 2014)
In addition to the standard NADPH thioredoxin reductases (NTRs), plants hold a plastidic NTR (NTRC), with a thioredoxin module fused at the C-terminus. NTRC is an efficient reductant of 2-Cys peroxiredoxins (2-Cys Prxs). ...

Stress-related biomolecular condensates in plants
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2023-09)
Biomolecular condensates are membraneless organelle-like structures that can concentrate molecules and often form through liquid-liquid phase separation. Biomolecular condensate assembly is tightly regulated by developmental ...

Sulfide promotes tolerance to drought through protein persulfidation in Arabidopsis
(Oxford University Press, 2023-08-17)
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a signaling molecule that regulates essential plant processes. In this study, the role of H2S during drought was analysed, focusing on the underlying mechanism. Pretreatments with H2S before ...
