Divorce supposes to be the end and closure of their romance (it is basically the basic plot of Divortiare). Long story short, their strong personalities collide with dire toll: their marriage. Alex lives and breathes bank credits meanwhile, Beno cannot live a day without his patient. As a power couple, Alex and Beno respectively are persons of professions. Twivortiare coalesces stories from two novels ( Divortiare and the sequel, Twivortiare) into one comprehensive story centering on Alex (Raihaanun, 27 Steps of May) and Beno (Reza Rahadian, also portraying the lead in Critical Eleven). Following up on the concise anti-romance Critical Eleven and its tonally problematic sibling, Antologi Rasa, the remarriage drama Twivortiare is set to showcase another adult romance with grounded, yet uncommon circumstances. However, the tide has shifted a bit in recent years, especially since adaptations of Ika Natassa’s metro-pop novels started grabbing specific audiences. The sub-genre has been subjected to the art-house area or, at some points, relegated to the soap-opera-only theme. Ever since the so-called Indonesian cinema revival back in the early 2000s, adult romance has somehow become a topic that mainstream movies attempted to avoid.

In spite of their low gene expression level as compared with other GAPDHs, GAPCp down-regulation leads to altered gene expression and to drastic changes in the sugar and amino acid balance of the plant. gapcp double mutants display a drastic phenotype of arrested root development, dwarfism, and sterility. In this work, we have identified two Arabidopsis ( Arabidopsis thaliana) chloroplast/plastid-localized GAPDH isoforms (GAPCp1 and GAPCp2). However, the in vivo functions of the plastidial isoforms remain unresolved. Both cytosolic (GAPCs) and plastidial (GAPCps) GAPDH activities have been described. The glycolytic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) catalyzes the conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate with concomitant reduction of NAD + to NADH. Glycolysis is a central metabolic pathway that, in plants, occurs in both the cytosol and the plastids.
