TLDR
In this paper, a barley seedlings (Hordeum vulgare L. var. distichon ALEFELD) was purified to homogeneity as determined by disc gel electrophoresis.Abstract:
Oxalate oxidase from barley seedlings (Hordeum vulgare L. var. distichon ALEFELD) was purified to homogeneity as determined by disc gel electrophoresis. The enzyme hydrolyzed oxalate, but no other related acids. The optimum pH was around pH 3.5, and this enzyme was stable at acidic pHs. The enzyme appears to consist of two identical subunits. Various other properties were investigated.read more

TL;DR: Transgenic sunflower plants constitutively expressing a wheat OXO gene exhibited enhanced resistance against the OA-generating fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and GeneCalling, an RNA-profiling technology, was used to analyze the alteration of gene expression in the transgenic plants.

Oxalate, germin, and the extracellular matrix of higher plants.
TL;DR: The article assembles and elaborates evidence which indicates that an ‘old’ enzyme, oxalate oxidase, and an even ‘older’ substrate, calcium Oxalate, have significant and previously uncontemplated roles in the biochemistry of the extracellular matrix (ECM) of higher plants.

Soybean plants expressing an active oligomeric oxalate oxidase from the wheat gf-2.8 (germin) gene are resistant to the oxalate-secreting pathogen Sclerotina sclerotiorum☆
TL;DR: This is the first report of plant resistance to the fungal pathogen S. sclerotiorum in transgenic plants expressing OxO, and transgenic soybean plants produced byAgrobacterium -mediated transformation with the wheat germin gene encoding an oligomeric protein, oxalate oxidase (OxO), which oxidizes oxalic acid to carbon dioxide and hydrogen peroxide.
