When molecular oxygen is unavailable—for example, in plant roots in flooded soils—glycolysis can be the main source of energy for cells, How?

#6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. In O2 deprived condition, the fermentative pathways are carried out in the chloroplast, must reduce pyruvate to recycle the NAD produced by glycolysis
  2. under lowoxygen conditions (hypoxia), Pyruvate is reduce with loss of its carboxyl group as CO2 , to yield the acetyl group of acetyl-coenzyme A
  3. O2 deprived condition, the fermentative pathways are carried out in the cytosol, must reduce pyruvate to recycle the NADH produced by glycolysis
  4. pyruvate is converted under hypoxic or anaerobic conditions to propanol and CO2 by fermentative pathways  which recyle the NADH produced by glycolysis

#6. System Physiology – Plant

There are the five groups of late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins found in plants

Match the following groups of LEA protein with its functional information;

 Group (family name)

                           Functional information

 

I) Group 1

   (D-19 family)

 

 

a) It is an abundant protein in cotton embryos, Each putative dimer of this group may bind as many as ten inorganic phosphates and their counterions

 

 

II) Group 2

    (D-11 family)

 

b) Possibly functions in ion sequestration to protect cytosolic metabolism When LE25 is expressed in yeast, it confers salt and freezing tolerance

 

 

III) Group 3

     (D-7 family)

 

c) In tomato, a gene encoding a similar protein is expressed in response to nematode feeding

 

 

IV) Group 4

    (D-95 family)

 

d) Contains more water of hydration than typical globular proteins Overexpression confers water deficit tolerance on yeast cells

 

 

V) Group 5

    (D-113 family)

 

e) Often localized to the cytoplasm or nucleus More acidic members of the family are associated with the plasma membrane May act to stabilize macromolecules at low water potential
