Metabolic consequences of hypoxia. (A) Under hypoxia, pyruvate is converted to alanine by the action of γ-aminobutyric acid transaminase (GABA-T) or alanine aminotransferase (AlaAT) in order to prevent its flow to mitochondria. Pyruvate is used for NAD+ regeneration in the cytosol by the action of PDC, ADH, and LDH. (B) Transcriptomic analysis showed increased transcript levels of markers of hypoxic adaptation in the AtUCP1 transgenic plants compared with the WT plants. PEP, phosphoenolpyruvate.
