Inhibition of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidase by 2-oxoacids
An extract from ripe pear fruits was used to demonstrate that 1- aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase, the enzyme responsible for plant ethylene synthesis, is sensitive to inhibition by a range of 2- oxoacids, competitively with respect to the co-substrate ascorbic acid, and non-competitive...
