The role of malate in plant homeostasis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Malate is a central metabolite of the plant cell with important roles in plant physiology and metabolism. Here, we summarize the most recent advances in our understanding of malate homeostasis in central metabolism, guard cell functioning, and root exudation.

Tuning of Redox Regulatory Mechanisms, Reactive Oxygen Species and Redox Homeostasis under Salinity Stress
Soil salinity is a crucial environmental constraint which limits biomass production at many sites on a global scale. Saline growth conditions cause osmotic and ionic imbalances, oxidative stress and perturb metabolism, e.g., the photosynthetic electron flow. The plant ability to tolerate salinity is determined by multiple biochemical and physiological mechanisms protecting cell functions, in pa...
متن کاملTHE EFFECT OF SALT STRESS ON MALATE DEHYDROGENASE IN WHEAT
Effect of various NaCI treatments (0, 50, 100, 200 and 300 mM) at different growth and development stages (tillering, boot swollen, flowering and anthesis) of two wheat cultivars on the kinetic activity and PAGE electrophoretic pattern of leaf malate dehydrogenase was studied under greenhouse conditions. Ghods was salt-sensitive and Boolani was salt-tolerant. In general, in response to salinti...
متن کاملPlastidial NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase is critical for embryo development and heterotrophic metabolism in Arabidopsis.
In illuminated chloroplasts, one mechanism involved in reduction-oxidation (redox) homeostasis is the malate-oxaloacetate (OAA) shuttle. Excess electrons from photosynthetic electron transport in the form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, reduced are used by NADP-dependent malate dehydrogenase (MDH) to reduce OAA to malate, thus regenerating the electron acceptor NADP. NADP-MDH is...
متن کاملCrassulacean Acid Metabolism
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a CO2 acquisition, CO2 transient storage and CO2 concentrating mechanism based on organic acid synthesis. CO2 acquisition occurs in the dark. CO2 is fixed and stored in the form of organic acids. Remobilization of CO2 from the organic acids occurs in the light and leads to massive CO2 concentration inside photosynthesizing plant organs (green leaves or stem...

Deltamethrin is one of the most commonly used Pyrethroid around the world. Oxidative stress is one of the most deltamethrin toxicity mechanisms. According to many studies, it has been shown that the liver, due to its role, is the main source of accumulation of high concentrations of deltamethrin metabolites. Also the kidney plays a very important role in regulating homeostasis of the body and r...
