Plant metabolism is finely orchestrated to allow the occurrence of complementary and
sometimes opposite metabolic pathways. In part this is achieved by the allosteric regulation …

Metacaspases are distant relatives of the metazoan caspases, found in plants, fungi, and
protists. However, in contrast with caspases, information about the physiological substrates …

Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) plays a key role in the development of plants and exists in a
wide variety of species. Research on the metabolic activities of PEP in plants has received …

Continuous discoveries in plant and crop physiology have resulted in an abundance of new
information since the publication of the second edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop …

Drying is an important postharvest step preceding long term storage of medicinal plants, and
optimized drying conditions are critical for secondary metabolite preservation. The objective …

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) catalyses the reversible reaction of
decarboxylation and phosphorylation of oxaloacetate (OAA) to generate …

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) is a key regulatory enzyme and is utilized in
the gluconeogenesis pathway in plants. Although, its catalytic and regulatory properties are …

Opening of stomata in plants with crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is mainly shifted to
the night period when atmospheric CO2 is fixed by phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and …

ATP-dependent phospho enol pyruvate carboxykinases (PEPCKs, EC 4.1. 1.49) from C4
and CAM plants have been widely studied due to their crucial role in photosynthetic CO2 …

Three C 4 acid decarboxylases, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), NADP-
malic enzyme (NADP-ME), and NAD-malic enzyme (NAD-ME) were recruited from C 3 …
