... into the glyoxylate cycle. When ACN1 is not present, carbon in the form of acetate can leak out of peroxisomes and is reactivated to acetyl-CoA within the cytosol. Kinetic models incorporating estimates of carbon input and pathway dynamics from a variety of literature sources have proven useful in explaining how ACN1...

...S. Penfield; S. Graham; I.A. Graham Germinating oilseeds break down fatty acids through peroxisomal β-oxidation and convert the carbon into soluble carbohydrates through the glyoxylate cycle and gluconeogenesis. This interconversion is unique among higher eukaryotes. Using a combination of forward...

... independent studies have reported on the expression of individual genes encoding enzymes from the three major pathways: β-oxidation, the glyoxylate cycle and gluconeogenesis. However, a single comprehensive study of representative genes and enzymes from the different pathways in a single plant species has...
