Ascorbate Peroxidase Analysis in Plant Tissues

Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) belongs to the class I heme-containing peroxidases and can be divided into four categories according to the subcellular localization: cytoplasmic APX, peroxidase APX, chloroplast APX, and mitochondrial APX. APX is an important reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging enzyme which converts H₂O₂ to H₂O and O₂ using ascorbate as the specific electron donor. It protects plants from the oxidative damage that can occur as a result of biotic and abiotic stresses. The expression of APX encoding genes as well as amount and activity of APX is differentially modulated by a variety of abiotic stresses in different plant species, such as high temperature, salinity, high light, heavy metals and drought stress.

STEMart provides comprehensive analysis services to identify and investigate the function of APX in regulating plant environmental stress responses.
