| Abstract | The regulation of alternative oxidase activity by the effector pyruvate was investigated in soybean (Glycine max L.) mitochondria using developmental changes in roots and cotyledons to vary the respiratory capacity of the mitochondria. Rates of cyanide-insensitive oxygen uptake by soybean root mitochondria declined with seedling age. Immunologically detectable protein levels increased slightly with age, and mitochondria from younger, more active roots had less of the protein in the reduced form. Addition of pyruvate stimulated cyanide-insensitive respiration in root mitochondria, up to the same rate, regardless of seedling age. This stimulation was reversed rapidly upon removal of pyruvate, either by pelleting mitochondria (with succinate as substrate) or by adding lactate dehydrogenase with NADH as substrate. In mitochondria from cotyledons of the same seedlings, cyanide-insensitive NADH oxidation was less dependent on added pyruvate, partly due to intramitochondrial generation of pyruvate from endogenous substrates. Cyanide-insensitive oxygen uptake with succinate as substrate was greater than that with NADH, in both root and cotyledon mitochondria, but this difference became much less when an increase in external pH was used to inhibit intramitochondrial pyruvate production via malic enzyme. Malic enzyme activity in root mitochondria declined with seedling age. The results indicate that the activity of the alternative oxidase in soybean mitochondria is very dependent on the presence of pyruvate: differences in the generation of intramitochondrial pyruvate can explain differences in alternative oxidase activity between tissues and substrates, and some of the changes that occur during seedling development. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
