Malate valves act as powerful systems for balancing the ATP/NAD (P) H ratio required in
various subcellular compartments in plant cells. As components of malate valves, isoforms of …

In photosynthetic cells, chloroplasts and mitochondria are the sites of the core redox
reactions underpinning energy metabolism. Such reactions generate reactive oxygen …

Programmed cell death (PCD) is a fundamental biological process. Deficiency in MOSAIC
DEATH 1 (MOD1), a plastid-localized enoyl-ACP reductase, leads to the accumulation of …

In recent years many advances have been made to obtain insight into chloroplast
biogenesis and development. In plants several plastids types exist such as the proplastid …

Chloroplasts import thousands of nucleus-encoded preproteins synthesized in the cytosol
through the TOC and TIC translocons on the outer and inner envelope membranes …

Subcellular compartmentalization confers evolutionary advantage to eukaryotic cells but
entails the need for efficient interorganelle communication. Malate functions as redox carrier …

A narrow genetic basis in modern cultivars and strong linkage disequilibrium in peach
(Prunus persica) has restricted resolution power for association studies in this model fruit …

In plant leaves, starch is composed of glucan polymers that accumulate in chloroplasts as
the products of photosynthesis during the day; starch is mobilized at night to continuously …

In this study, we characterized the role of an apple cytosolic malate dehydrogenase gene
(Mdcy MDH) in the tolerance to salt and cold stresses and investigated its regulation …

Organic acids play a crucial role in numerous metabolic processes accompanied by transfer
of electrons and protons and linked to the reduction/oxidation of major redox couples in …
