Ascorbate oxidase (AO) is an apoplastic enzyme that uses oxygen to catalyse the oxidation of ascorbate (AA) to dehydroascorbate (DHA) via the unstable radical monodehydroascorbate (MDHA). Here, we report that transgenic tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Xanthi) with an in vivo lowered

The role of the exopolysaccharides (EPSs) produced by plant pathogenic bacteria has not completely clarified, they are considered either molecules able to avoid or delay the activation of plant defences, or acting as signal in the plant-pathogen cross-talk. In order to understand whether EPSs are

Transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv Bel W3) plants were used to test the hypothesis that protection from O3 injury could be conferred by overproduction of ascorbate peroxidase (APX) in the chloroplast. The 10-fold increase in soluble APX activity in the chloroplast was expected to alleviate an

Plant viral movement proteins facilitate virion movement mainly through interaction with a number of factors from the host. We report the association of a cell wall localized ascorbate oxidase (CsAO4) from Cucumis sativus with the movement protein (MP) of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). This was

We have explored the transient over-expression of Arabidopsis thaliana ascorbate peroxidase 3 (APX3) in Nicotiana benthamiana using a viral vector based on the potato virus X (PVX). Plants infected with a PVX:APX3 hybrid had a similar progression of viral particles compared to control plants

A cDNA clone for ascorbate oxidase (AAO) has been isolated from a cDNA library of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cells. The identity of the amino acid sequence deduced from tobacco AAO cDNA to that from pumpkin AAO cDNA was 68%, which was much lower than the identity (80%) between pumpkin and cucumber

To investigate the possible mechanisms of glutathione reductase (GR) in protecting against oxidative stress, we obtained transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants with 30-70% decreased GR activity by using a gene encoding tobacco chloroplastic GR for the RNAi construct. We investigated the

Apoplastic ascorbate oxidase (AO) plays significant roles in plant cell growth. However, the mechanism of underlying the transcriptional regulation of AO in Gossypium hirsutum remains unclear. Here, we obtained a 1,920-bp promoter sequence from the Gossypium hirsutum ascorbate oxidase (GhAO1) gene,

When pumpkin (Cucurbita spp., cv. Ebisu Nankin) ascorbate oxidase cDNA was introduced into cultured cells of tobacco BY-2 (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Bright Yellow No. 2) by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, the transgenic cells expressed and secreted the recombinant pumpkin ascorbate oxidase

The L-ascorbate peroxidase 6 gene (APX6) is one of the most important genes for scavenging H2O2 and plays a vital role in plant resistance to environmental stresses. In this study, a novel ScAPX6 gene (GenBank Accession No. KT907352) was obtained from a sugarcane variety (ROC22). Bioinformatics

Methylglyoxal (MG) is one of the aldehydes accumulated in plants under environmental stress. Cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (cAPX) plays a key role in the protection of cells from oxidative damage by scavenging reactive oxygen species in higher plants. A cDNA encoding cAPX, named NtcAPX, was

BACKGROUND In order to employ Nicotiana tabacum cells as a profitable natural bioreactor for production of bio-functional "Soluble human TRAIL" (ShTRAIL), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) targeted expression and innovative extraction procedures were exploited. METHODS At first, the ShTRAIL encoding gene

The effect of the alternation of light/dark periods (AL) (16/8 min light/dark cycles and a photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) of 50 μmol photons m(-2) s(-1) for three days) to clarify the mechanisms involved in the clomazone tolerance of tobacco plantlets primed with AL was studied. Clomazone

The role of the redox state of the apoplast in hormone responses, signaling cascades, and gene expression was studied in transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants with modified cell wall-localized ascorbate oxidase (AO). High AO activity specifically decreased the ascorbic acid (AA) content of

Syringe infiltration is an important transient transformation method that is widely used in many molecular studies. Owing to the wide use of syringe agroinfiltration, it is important and necessary to improve its transformation efficiency. Here, we studied the factors influencing the transformation
