Evidence of compensation for mitochondrial reactive oxygen species increase in Caenorhabditis briggsae cytoplasmic-nuclear hybrids

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: cybrid lines. An increase of catalase expression but not in mitochondrial abundance was found in dysfunctional cybrids. This suggests that organisms might compensate for some genetic incompatibilities by modulating gene expression of key oxidative stress enzymes such as catalase.
