Under anoxic conditions the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii activates various
fermentation pathways leading to the creation of formate, acetate, ethanol and small …

The subcellular distribution of pyruvate‐degrading enzymes has been determined in
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Dangeard) by protoplast induction with autolysine, dig‐itonin …

Abstract d-Lactate accumulation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was dependent on
anaerobic conditions. As much as 50% of the 14C after 2 minutes of photosynthetic 14CO2 …

Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is associated with intact chloroplasts and mitochondria of
9-day-old Pisum sativum L. seedlings. The ratio of the mitochondrial complex to the …

The chloroplast pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (cpPDC) catalyses the oxidative
decarboxylation of pyruvate forming acetyl-CoA, an immediate primer for the initial reactions …

Purified Pisum sativum chloroplasts showed the presence of all three components of the
pyruvate-dehydrogenase complex (PDC). Radiotracer studies indicated activity of the …

Eukaryotic algae have long been known to live in anoxic environments, but interest in their
anaerobic energy metabolism has only recently gained momentum, largely due to their utility …

The possibility that glycolate oxidation in unicellular green algae is linked to mitochondrial
electron transport, rather than to peroxisomal metabolism as in higher plants and animals …

The green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has a network of fermentation pathways that
become active when cells acclimate to anoxia. Hydrogenase activity is an important …

Photorespiration plays an important role in maintaining normal physiological metabolism in
higher plants and other oxygenic organisms, such as algae. The unicellular eukaryotic …
