Alternative oxidase (AOX) is a nonproton motive quinol-oxygen oxidoreductase which is a component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain in higher plants. In this study, we have characterized the catalytic activity and regulatory behaviors of Arum concinnatum AOX isoforms, namely AcoAOX1a and
Alternative oxidase (AOX) is a quinol-oxygen oxidoreductase, which is known to possess a dicarboxylate diiron reaction center held in structurally postulated alpha-helical bundle. However, little is known about the structural or functional features of its N-terminal region in any organism, with the
Cyanide-resistant alternative oxidase (AOX) is a nuclear-encoded quinol oxidase located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Although the quality control of AOX proteins is expected to have a role in elevated respiration in mitochondria, it remains unclear whether thermogenic plants possess
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small molecules present in all living beings. Despite their huge sequence variability, AMPs present great structural conservation, mainly in cysteine-stabilized families. Moreover, in non-model plants, it is possible to detect cysteine-stabilized AMPs (cs-AMPs) with
