Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: PsTrxo1
• Gene Name: mitochondrial thioredoxin1
• Genome:
• Species: Pisum sativum

Functional Descriptions:

• Response of mitochondrial thioredoxin PsTrxo1, antioxidant enzymes, and respiration to salinity in pea leaves.
• To explore the participation of mitochondrial PsTrxo1, Mn-superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), peroxiredoxin (PsPrxII F), and alternative oxidase (AOX) under salt stress, their transcriptional and protein levels were analysed in pea plants growing under 150 mM NaCl for a short and a long period.
• PsTrxo1 has recently been described as a protein with a dual targeting to pea mitochondria and the nucleus, and several proteins have been described as its targets, including PrxII F and AOX.
• The results support a role for PsTrxo1 as a component of the defence system induced by NaCl in pea mitochondria, providing the cell with a mechanism by which it can respond to changing environment protecting mitochondria from oxidative stress together with Mn-SOD, AOX, and PrxII F.
