The objects of investigation were single crystals of L-α-alanine, in which radical anion CH3 C˙H CO2− has been formed by radiation induced deamination of alanine. Previously, this stable radical has been spectrally identified (λmax, ε=1100 M−1·cm−1), and its characteristics have found to be identical with characteristics of the same radical obtained by pulse radiolysis in aqueous solution. The mechanism of radical formation in the solid state is not known. Time resolved pulse radiolysis of…

The results indicated that the de-amination of L-alanine is the main reaction to form the “stable” radical and the AiG-dosimeter gives comparable sensitivity for both low and high radiation doses, and a linear EPR-radiation dose response is observed over a very wide range.

It is proposed that CaRLK1 maintains a persistent hypoxia-resistant phenotype because of its role in regulating cell death under abiotic stress.
