Redox Metabolism in Photosynthetic Organisms

After the strong influence of a series of works made around the turn of the century, nitric oxide (NO) is now considered a signal molecule with broad participation in the physiological processes of plants. NO acts as a ...

Oxygen is the key molecule for aerobic metabolism, but no animal cells can produce it, creating an extreme dependency on external supply. In contrast, microalgae are photosynthetic microorganisms, therefore, they are able ...

Oxidative damage to lipids was characterized in terms of the nature of the oxidant, the type of lipid, and the severity of the oxidation (Simontacchi et al., 2011). Even though malondialdehyde detection with the thiobarbituric ...

Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) synthesizes NO from the substrate L-arginine (Arg). NOS with distinct biochemical properties were characterized from two photosynthetic microorganisms, the unicellular algae Ostreococcus tauri ...

Nitric oxide (NO) is a signal molecule produced in species of all kingdoms of life. In animals, NO is synthesized by NO synthases (NOSs) enzymes using l-arginine as substrate. In the plant kingdom, findings showed the ...
