Abstract

Ascorbate peroxidase catalyze the oxidation of ascorbic acid through the reaction with hydrogen peroxide. Ascorbic acid are utilized as a substrate in oxidative stress. In Candida albieans, ascorbic acid is used as antioxidants, so called D-erythroascorbic acid (EASe). Oxidative stress change concentrations of EASC resulting in interaction with alternative oxidase (AOX).(omitted)
