Xylella fastidiosa is a gram-negative bacteria and, a plant pathogen that causes Citrus Variegated Chlorosis (CVC) generating large losses for the agricultural sector. In the infection process, the plant uses several lines of defense against the pathogen. The generation of oxidizing species in the extracellular environment is a major defense mechanism used. However, the pathogens also hav…
Thiosemicarbazones and organotelluranes are well-known compounds that have the ability to oxidize protein thiol groups. Changes in these groups interfere with various mitochondrial and cellular processes. Isolated mitochondria and cell cultures are ideal biological models for these studies. In this thesis we evaluated the action of thiosemicarbazones and tellurium compounds in the bioener…
