Journal ArticleDOI

GLYI and D-LDH play key role in methylglyoxal detoxification and abiotic stress tolerance.

TL;DR: In this article, a comparative study of the ability of MG detoxification of these three enzymes has been done in both E. coli and yeast in presence of different abiotic stress revealed the contribution of each of these genes in detoxifying MG.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arabidopsis thaliana Contains Both Ni2+ and Zn2+ Dependent Glyoxalase I Enzymes and Ectopic Expression of the Latter Contributes More towards Abiotic Stress Tolerance in E. coli.

TL;DR: This is the first report of a higher eukaryotic species having multiple active GLYI enzymes belonging to different metal activation classes coexisting in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Journal ArticleDOI

A D-lactate dehydrogenase from rice is involved in conferring tolerance to multiple abiotic stresses by maintaining cellular homeostasis.

TL;DR: OsD-LDH2 emerged as a promising candidate which can open a new direction for engineering stress tolerant crop varieties by maintaining their growth and yield in unfavorable conditions by maintained lower level of ROS and other toxic metabolites along with better functioning of antioxidant system.
Journal ArticleDOI

C-terminally encoded peptides (CEPs) are potential mediators of abiotic stress response in plants.

TL;DR: These findings suggest these CEP genes might be important mediators of the abiotic stress response and warrant further overexpression/knockout studies to delineate their precise role in abiotics stress response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zn2+ dependent glyoxalase I plays the major role in methylglyoxal detoxification and salinity stress tolerance in plants.

TL;DR: Lack in germination of Arabidopsis AtGLYI2 mutants in presence of exogenous MG indicates the direct involvement of Zn2+ dependent GLYI in MG detoxification, suggesting Zn 2+ dependent GlYI as the main enzyme responsible forMG detoxification and salinity stress tolerance.
