Non-reciprocal regulation of the redox state of the glutathione-glutaredoxin and thioredoxin systems.
Our studies in yeast show that there is an essential requirement for either an active thioredoxin or an active glutathione (GSH)-glutaredoxin system for cell viability. Glutathione reductase (Glr1) and thioredoxin reductase (Trr1) are key regulatory enzymes that determine the redox state of the GSH-glutaredoxin and thioredoxin systems, respectively. Here we show that Trr1 is required during nor...
متن کاملAloe Vera in the Management of Oxidative Stress
Oxidative stress Oxidative stress can be defined as an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the body that disrupts its ability to detoxify reactive intermediates, or to repair the damage to organ and cellular systems that can be caused by ROS. Intracellular redox balance (the dynamic balance between oxidizing and reducing species within cells) is closely coupled ...
متن کاملRedox homeostasis via gene families of ascorbate-glutathione pathway
The imposition of environmental stresses on plants brings about disturbance in their metabolism thereby negatively affecting their growth and development and leading to reduction in the productivity. One of the manifestations of different abiotic and biotic stress conditions in plants is the enhanced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which can be hazardous to cells. Therefore, in orde...
متن کاملSeasonal variation in the regulation of redox state and some biotransformation enzyme activities in the barn swallow (Hirundo rustica L.).
Little is known of the normal seasonal variation in redox state and biotransformation activities in birds. In long-distance migratory birds, in particular, seasonal changes could be expected to occur because of the demands of migration and reproduction. In this study, we measured several redox parameters in the barn swallow (Hirundo rustica L.) during the annual cycle. We captured the wintering...
متن کاملRedox regulation and storage processes during maturation in kernels of Triticum durum.
Metabolic changes during the development and maturation of Triticum durum Desf. (L.) kernels were studied, with particular emphasis on changes in the redox state of ascorbate and glutathione, as well as in the activities of the enzymes responsible for the recycling of their oxidized forms (ascorbic free radical reductase, EC 1.6.5.4; dehydroascorbate reductase, EC 1.8.5.1; glutathione reductase...
