Abstract
⺠Reactive carbonyl species (RCS), products of lipid peroxides, are strong cytotoxins. ⺠Multiple enzymes altogether contribute to the detoxification of vast variety of RCS. ⺠RCS-detoxifying enzymes protects plants from various environmental stresses. ⺠RCS occur at μM levels in cells, and may rise to sub-mM under environmental stress. ⺠Limited number of proteins/enzymes are sensitively modified and inactivated by RCS.
