Glutathione is generally accepted as the principal electron donor for dehydroascorbate (DHA) reduction. Moreover, both glutathione and DHA affect cell cycle progression in plant cells. But other mechanisms for DHA reduction have been proposed. To investigate the connection between DHA and
Transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv SR1) with decreased activity of glutathione reductase exhibited enhanced sensitivity to paraquat in the light as evaluated by chlorophyll destruction and electrolyte leakage from leaf discs. This result indicates the involvement of glutathione reductase in
Transcriptional activation of the soybean (Glycine max) GH2/4 gene (also referred to as Gmhsp26-A) and increase in abundance of the GH2/4 mRNA (also referred to as pCE54) have been previously shown to occur following treatment of soybean seedlings with auxins, nonauxin analogs, heavy metals, and a
Expression in transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) of a pea (Pisum sativum L.) GOR2 cDNA, encoding an isoform of glutathione reductase (GOR2), resulted in a 3- to 7-fold elevation of total foliar glutathione reductase (GR) activity. The enzyme encoded by GOR2 was confirmed to be extraplastidial
Using a conditional life or death screen in yeast, we have isolated a tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) gene encoding a phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (LePHGPx). The protein displayed reduced glutathione-dependent phospholipid hydroperoxide peroxidase activity, but differs from
Chloroplast glutathione reductase (GR) plays an important role in protecting photosynthesis against oxidative stress. We used transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants with severely decreased GR activities by using a gene encoding tobacco chloroplast GR for the RNAi construct to investigate the
In order to identify tobacco (Nicotiana megalosiphon) genes involved in broad-spectrum resistance to tobacco blue mold (Peronospora hyoscyami f. sp. tabacina), suppression subtractive hybridization was used to generate cDNA from transcripts that are differentially expressed during an incompatible
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs, EC 2.5.1.18) are a multigene family of detoxification enzymes that biotransform a wide variety of endogenous and exogenous electrophilic substrates, including herbicides. The isozyme GST I from maize exhibits significant catalytic activity for the chloroacetanilide
Transgenic tobacco with enhanced cytosolic activities of glutathione reductase and superoxide dismutase were generated by cross-fertilization. Leaves of the hybrids exhibited further increased tolerance to a O2-.-generating herbicide paraquat than those of their parents. This result indicates the
A cDNA was isolated from pea leaf RNA which encodes a phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPX; E.C. 1.1.1.1.9). The N-terminal section of this PHGPX encodes a recognisable chloroplast transit peptide. Efficient import in vitro of the pre-PHGPX protein into the stroma of isolated pea
Sulfur-induced resistance, also known as sulfur-enhanced defense (SIR/SED) was investigated in Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun nn during compatible interaction with Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in correlation with glutathione metabolism. To evaluate the influence of sulfur nutritional status on virus
Hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has very low constitutive glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity when assayed with the chloroacetamide herbicide dimethenamid as a substrate, which may account for its low tolerance to dimethenamid in the field. Treatment of seeds with the herbicide safener
The isolation, characterization, and expression of a novel cDNA encoding a Trypanosoma cruzi polypeptide (TcAc2), homologous to various small stress proteins and glutathione S-transferases, are described. The deduced amino-acid sequence revealed two domains sharing 27% identity and an additional 27%

Triticum durum Glutathione S-transferase Z1 is specifically responsive to glyphosate. Its expression influences the receptor-mediated vacuolar sorting mechanisms involved in tolerance mechanisms. A zeta subfamily glutathione S-transferase gene from Triticum durum (cv Cappelli) (TdGSTZ1)
We have isolated 4 cDNA clones (GRT1-4) encoding glutathione reductase (GR) from a tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) leaf cDNA library. The cDNAs were almost identical: GRT1, GRT3 and GRT4 represented the same gene, differing only in that GRT4 contained an intron within the C-terminal part of the
