Molecular Identification and Physiological Characterization of Alternative Oxidase Gene Family Members in Nicotiana tabacum

Two projects were undertaken to study the non-energy conserving alternative pathway present in the plant mitochondrial ETC. In the first project, a tobacco AOX2 gene was cloned and characterized. AOX2 showed tissue specificity in expression and could not be induced by common stresses. In the second...
