      Messeder, Douglas Jardim de Alvarenga; Vieira, Ygor de Souza; Lavaquial, Lucas Corrêa; Cassol, Daniela; Galhego, Vanessa Braga; Esteves, Gabriel Afonso Bastos; Cruz, Thais Felix-Cordeiro; Côrrea, Régis Lopes; Zamocky, Marcel; Margis-Pinheiro, Márcia; Martins, Gilberto Sachetto (2023) [Artigo de periódico]
      Ascorbate peroxidase (APX), Monodehydroascorbate Reductase (MDAR), Dehydroascorbate Reductase (DHAR) and Glutathione Reductase (GR) enzymes participate in the ascorbateglutathione cycle, which exerts a central role in the ...
    • Ascorbate peroxidase neofunctionalization at the origin of APX-R and APX-L: evidence from basal archaeplastida 

      Lazzarotto, Fernanda; Menguer, Paloma Koprovski; Del Bem, Luiz Eduardo; Zamocky, Marcel; Margis-Pinheiro, Márcia (2021) [Artigo de periódico]
      Ascorbate peroxidases (APX) are class I members of the Peroxidase-Catalase superfamily, a large group of evolutionarily related but rather divergent enzymes. Through mining in public databases, unusual subsets of APX ...
