This controlled copper transport serves as cofactor for critical enzymes including: Lysyl oxidase: Essential for collagen and elastin cross-linking Lysyl hydroxylase: Required for proper collagen synthesis Superoxide dismutase: Provides antioxidant defense mechanisms Cytochrome c oxidase: Powers cellular respiration Tyrosinase: Facilitates melanin production The peptide can readily obtain Cu from plasma albumin, functioning bidirectionally to transport copper into or out of cells based on cellular requirements
The reduction of cellular or chloroplast GR activity was also reported in infections on compatible hosts caused by various viruses such as cocksfoot mottle virus (CfMV) on Dactylis glomerata , cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) on tomato, PPV, and prune necrotic ringspot virus (PNRSV) on apricot plants, as well as white clover mosaic virus (WCIMV) on bean plants (Song et al., 2009
