Analysis of Chromophytic and Rhodophytic Ribulose-1,5-Bisphosphate Carboxylase Indicates Extensive Structural and Functional Similarities among Evolutionarily Diverse Algae.

abstract：:Previous studies have shown that the monoterpene ketone l-[G-(3)H] menthone is reduced to the epimeric alcohols l-menthol and d-neomenthol in leaves of flowering peppermint (Mentha piperita L.), and that a portion of the menthol is converted to menthyl acetate while the bulk of the neomenthol is transformed to neoment...

abstract：:Elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) in leaves closes stomatal apertures. Research has shown key functions of the β-carbonic anhydrases (βCA1 and βCA4) in rapid CO2-induced stomatal movements by catalytic transmission of the CO2 signal in guard cells. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear, because initial studies...
