Drought-related Changes in the Metabolism and Nutritional Properties of Mature Pea (<em>Pisum sativum L.</em>) Seeds in the Context of Protein Glycation
Abstract:Protein glycation is usually referred to as an array of non-enzymatic post-translational modifications, formed by reducing sugars and carbonyl products of their degradation. Resulting advanced glycation end products (AGEs) represent a heterogeneous group of covalent adducts, known for their pro-inflammatory effects in mammals, and impacting on pathogenesis of metabolic diseases and ageing. In plants, AGEs are the markers of tissue ageing and response to environmental stressors, the most prominent of which is d… Show more
