Organic acids could improve the food flavor, maintain the nutritional value, and extend the
shelf life of food. This review summarizes the detection methods and concentrations of …

This review summarizes knowledge of alternative oxidase, a mitochondrial electron
transport chain component that lowers the ATP yield of plant respiration. Analysis of mutant …

▪ Abstract Plants, some fungi, and protists contain a cyanide-resistant, alternative
mitochondrial respiratory pathway. This pathway branches at the ubiquinone pool and …

Despite intense research on the in vitro characterization of regulatory factors modulating the
alternative oxidase (AOX) pathway, the regulation of its activity in vivo is still not fully …

The alternative pathway of mitochondrial electron transport, which terminates in the
alternative oxidase (AOX), uncouples oxidation of substrate from mitochondrial ATP …

Plant internal oxygen concentrations can drop well below ambient even when the plant
grows under optimal conditions. Using pea (Pisum sativum) roots, we show how amenable …

Approximately 40% of a plant's dry mass consists of carbon, fixed in photosynthesis. This
process is vital for growth and survival of virtually all plants during the major part of their …

This review focuses on the biochemical regulation and function of the alternative oxidase in
vivo. About 10 years ago, two activation mechanisms were discovered in isolated …

Respiratory metabolism includes the reactions of glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle and
the mitochondrial electron transport chain, but is also directly linked with many other …

Over-accumulation of anaerobic metabolites is a typical characteristic of postharvest
senescence in winter jujube fruit. Here, elevated O 2 was applied during cold storage to …
