Journal ArticleDOI
ASCORBATE AND GLUTATHIONE: Keeping Active Oxygen Under Control
Graham Noctor,Christine H. Foyer +1 more
TL;DR: A detailed account of current knowledge of the biosynthesis, compartmentation, and transport of these two important antioxidants, with emphasis on the unique insights and advances gained by molecular exploration are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Redox homeostasis and antioxidant signaling: a metabolic interface between stress perception and physiological responses.
Christine H. Foyer,Graham Noctor +1 more
TL;DR: Growing evidence suggests a model for redox homeostasis in which the reactive oxygen species (ROS)–antioxidant interaction acts as a metabolic interface for signals derived from metabolism and from the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
The presence of glutathione and glutathione reductase in chloroplasts: A proposed role in ascorbic acid metabolism.
TL;DR: It is proposed that glutathione functions to stabilise enzymes of the Calvin cycle, and it may also act to keep ascorbic acid in chloroplasts in the reduced form.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ascorbate and glutathione: the heart of the redox hub.
Christine H. Foyer,Graham Noctor +1 more
TL;DR: The discovery that there is a close relationship between ascorbate and glutathione dates from soon after the characterization of the chemical formulae of the two molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photooxidative stress in plants
TL;DR: The capacity of the antioxidative defense system is often increased at such times but if the response is not sufficient, radical production will exceed scavenging and ultimately lead to the disruption of metabolism as discussed by the authors.
