| Research Abstract |
This study was done to determine the physiological function of peroxisomal BADH protein in the environmental stress tolerance of plants. Although plant BADH proteins showed various subcellular localization, most protein was mainly detected in photosynthetic tissues of leaves. Various plants' BADHs as well as rice showed acetaldehyde oxidation activity. The domain for the oxidation of acetaldehyde was identified in BADH proteins. Although, in rice, the expression of BADH genes was increased by environmental stress, indicating the involvement of those genes in the tolerance, BADH genes seemed not necessary for the growth under normal conditions.
