New glycosidic aroma precursors (1 and 2) of the main volatile constituents, trans- and cis-linalool 3,6-oxides (linalool oxides I and II), were isolated from oolong tea leaves (Camellia sinensis var. sinensis cv. Maoxie). The isolation was guided by an enzymatic hydrolysis with acetone powder prepared from fresh tea leaves (cv. Yabukita) followed by GC or GC-MS analyses. Chromatographic purification of hot water extracts of the tea leaves on active charcoal, Amberlite XAD-2, and Sephadex LH-20 columns as well as HPLC gave two new glycosides, trans- and cis-linalool 3,6-oxide 6-O-β-d-xylopyranosyl-β-d-glucopyra-nosides (1 and 2). 相似文献

The glycoside fraction from fresh tea leaves was acetylated and separated by silica gel column chromatography.A crystalline product was identified as (Z)-3-hexenyl-(tetra-O-acetyl)-β-d-glucopyranoside from spectrometric data which were identical with those of an authentic synthesized sample in all respects.There are two possible processes for the formation of the greenish odor of plant materials, these being a biosynthetic process from the lipid and enzymatic hydrolysis of (Z)-3-hexenyl-β-d-glucoside. 相似文献

Antioxidative activity of (-)-epigallocatechin-3-(3″-O-methyl)gallate (catechin e) was examined. Catechin e showed a strong antioxidative activity. A preliminary test using rat cancer cells suggests that catechin e also has a strong cytotoxic activity. Among tested catechins, only catechin e has strong activity for both. 相似文献

Glycoside hydrolase family 1 (GH1) β-glucosidases play roles in many processes in plants, such as chemical defense, alkaloid metabolism, hydrolysis of cell wall-derived oligosaccharides, phytohormone regulation, and lignification. However, the functions of most of the 34 GH1 gene products in rice (Oryza sativa) are unknown. Os3BGlu6, a rice β-glucosidase representing a previously uncharacterized phylogenetic cluster of GH1, was produced in recombinant Escherichia coli. Os3BGlu6 hydrolyzed p-nitrophenyl (pNP)-β-d-fucoside (kcat/Km = 67 mm−1 s−1), pNP-β-d-glucoside (kcat/Km = 6.2 mm−1 s−1), and pNP-β-d-galactoside (kcat/Km = 1.6 mm−1s−1) efficiently but had little activity toward other pNP glycosides. It also had high activity toward n-octyl-β-d-glucoside and β-(1→3)- and β-(1→2)-linked disaccharides and was able to hydrolyze apigenin β-glucoside and several other natural glycosides. Crystal structures of Os3BGlu6 and its complexes with a covalent intermediate, 2-deoxy-2-fluoroglucoside, and a nonhydrolyzable substrate analog, n-octyl-β-d-thioglucopyranoside, were solved at 1.83, 1.81, and 1.80 Å resolution, respectively. The position of the covalently trapped 2-F-glucosyl residue in the enzyme was similar to that in a 2-F-glucosyl intermediate complex of Os3BGlu7 (rice BGlu1). The side chain of methionine-251 in the mouth of the active site appeared to block the binding of extended β-(1→4)-linked oligosaccharides and interact with the hydrophobic aglycone of n-octyl-β-d-thioglucopyranoside. This correlates with the preference of Os3BGlu6 for short oligosaccharides and hydrophobic glycosides.β-Glucosidases (EC 3.2.1.21) have a wide range of functions in plants, including acting in cell wall remodeling, lignification, chemical defense, plant-microbe interactions, phytohormone activation, activation of metabolic intermediates, and release of volatiles from their glycosides (Esen, 1993). They fulfill these roles by hydrolyzing the glycosidic bond at the nonreducing terminal glucosyl residue of a glycoside or an oligosaccharide, thereby releasing Glc and an aglycone or a shortened carbohydrate. The aglycone released from the glycoside may be a monolignol, a toxic compound, or a compound that further reacts to release a toxic component, an active phytohormone, a reactive metabolic intermediate, or a volatile scent compound (Brzobohatý et al., 1993; Dharmawardhama et al., 1995; Reuveni et al., 1999; Lee et al., 2006; Barleben et al., 2007; Morant et al., 2008). Indeed, the wide range of glucosides of undocumented functions found in plants suggests that many β-glucosidase functions may remain to be discovered.Plant β-glucosidases fall into related families that have been classified as glycosyl hydrolase (GH) families GH1, GH3, and GH5 (Henrissat, 1991; Coutinho and Henrissat, 1998, 1999). Of these, GH1 has been most thoroughly documented and shown to comprise a gene family encoding 40 putative functional GHs in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and 34 in rice (Oryza sativa) in addition to a few pseudogenes (Xu et al., 2004; Opassiri et al., 2006). In addition to β-glucosidases, plant GH1 members include β-mannosidases (Mo and Bewley, 2002), β-thioglucosidases (Burmeister et al., 1997), and disaccharidases such as primeverosidase (Mizutani et al., 2002) as well as hydroxyisourate hydrolase, which hydrolyzes the internal bond in a purine ring rather than a glycosidic bond (Raychaudhuri and Tipton, 2002). The specificity for the glycone in GH1 enzymes varies. Some enzymes are quite specific for β-d-glucosides or β-d-mannosides, while many accept either β-d-glucosides or β-d-fucosides, and some also hydrolyze β-d-galactosides, β-d-xylosides, and α-l-arabinoside (Esen, 1993). However, most GH1 enzymes are thought to hydrolyze glucosides in the plant, and it is the aglycone specificity that determines the functions of most GH1 enzymes.Aglycone specificity of GH1 β-glucosidases ranges from rather broad to absolutely specific for one substrate and is not obvious from sequence similarity. For instance, maize (Zea mays) ZmGlu1 β-glucosidase hydrolyzes a range of glycosides, including its natural substrate, 2-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-4-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIMBOAGlc), but not dhurrin, whereas sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) Dhr1, which is 72% identical to ZmGlu1, only hydrolyzes its natural cyanogenic substrate dhurrin (Verdoucq et al., 2003). Similarly, despite sharing over 80% amino acid sequence identity, the legume isoflavonoid β-glucosidases dalcochinase from Dalbergia cochinchinensis and Dnbglu2 from Dalbergia nigrescens hydrolyze each other''s natural substrate very poorly (Chuankhayan et al., 2007). Thus, small differences in the amino acid sequence surrounding the active site may be expected to account for significant differences in substrate specificity.GH1 is classified in GH clan A, which consists of GH families whose members have a (β/α)8-barrel structure with the catalytic acid/base on strand 4 of the β-barrel and the catalytic nucleophile on strand 7 (Henrissat et al., 1995; Jenkins et al., 1995). As such, all GH1 enzymes have similar overall structures, but it has been noted that four variable loops at the C-terminal end of the β-barrel strands, designated A, B, C, and D, account for much of the differences in the active site architecture (Sanz-Aparicio et al., 1998). The similar structures with great diversity in substrate specificity make plant GH1 enzymes an ideal model system to investigate the structural basis of substrate specificity. To date, seven plant β-glucosidase structures have been reported, including three closely related chloroplastic enzymes from maize (Czjzek et al., 2000, 2001), sorghum (Verdoucq et al., 2004), and wheat (Triticum aestivum; Sue et al., 2006), the cytoplasmic strictosidine β-glucosidase from Rauvolfia serpentine (Barleben et al., 2007), and the secreted enzymes white clover (Trifolium repens) cyanogenic β-glucosidase (Barrett et al., 1995), white mustard (Sinapsis alba) myrosinase (thioglucosidase; Burmeister et al., 1997), and rice Os3BGlu7 (BGlu1; Chuenchor et al., 2008). These enzymes hydrolyze substrates with a range of structures, but they cannot account for the full range of β-glucosidase substrates available in plants, and determining the structural differences that bring about substrate specificity differences in even closely related GH1 enzymes has proven tricky (Verdoucq et al., 2003, 2004; Sue et al., 2006; Chuenchor et al., 2008).Amino acid sequence-based phylogenetic analysis of GH1 enzymes encoded by the rice genome showed that there are eight clusters containing both rice and Arabidopsis proteins that are more closely related to each other than they are to enzymes from the same plants outside the clusters (Fig. 1; Opassiri et al., 2006). In addition, there are a cluster of sixteen putative β-glucosidases and a cluster of myrosinases in Arabidopsis without any closely related rice counterparts. Comparison with characterized GH1 enzymes from other plants reveals other clusters of related enzymes not found in rice or Arabidopsis, including the chloroplastic enzymes, from which the maize, sorghum, and wheat structures are derived, and the cytoplasmic metabolic enzymes, from with the strictosidine hydrolase structure is derived (Fig. 1). Therefore, although the known structures provide good tools for molecular modeling of plant enzymes, most rice and Arabidopsis GH1 enzymes lack a close correspondence in sequence and functional evolution to these structures, suggesting that the variable loops that determine the active site may be different. It would be useful, therefore, to know the structures and substrate specificities of representative members of each of the eight clusters seen in rice and Arabidopsis. To begin to acquire this information, we have expressed Os3BGlu6, a member of cluster At/Os 1 in Figure 1, characterized its substrate specificity, and determined its structure alone and in complex with a glycosyl intermediate and a nonhydrolyzable substrate analog.Open in a separate windowFigure 1.Simplified phylogenetic tree of the amino acid sequences of eukaryotic GH1 proteins with known structures and those of rice and Arabidopsis GH1 gene products. The protein sequences of the eukaryotic proteins with known structures are marked with four-character PDB codes for one of their structures, including Trifolium repens cyanogenic β-glucosidase (1CBG; Barrett et al., 1995), Sinapsis alba myrosinase (1MYR; Burmeister et al., 1997), Zea mays ZmGlu1 β-glucosidase (1E1F; Czjzek et al., 2000), Sorghum bicolor Dhr1 dhurrinase (1V02; Verdoucq et al., 2004), Triticum aestivum β-glucosidase (2DGA; Sue et al., 2006), Rauvolfia serpentina strictosidine β-glucosidase (2JF6; Barleben et al., 2007), and Oryza sativa Os3BGlu7 (BGlu1) β-glucosidase (2RGL; Chuenchor et al., 2008) from plants, along with Brevicoryne brassicae myrosinase (1WCG; Husebye et al., 2005), Homo sapiens cytoplasmic (Klotho) β-glucosidase (2E9M; Hayashi et al., 2007), and Phanerochaete chrysosporium (2E3Z; Nijikken et al., 2007), while those encoded in the Arabidopsis and rice genomes are labeled with the systematic names given by Xu et al. (2004) and Opassiri et al. (2006), respectively. One or two example proteins from each plant are given for each of the eight clusters of genes shared by Arabidopsis (At) and rice (Os) and the Arabidopsis-specific clusters At I (β-glucosidases) and At II (myrosinases), with the number of Arabidopsis or rice enzymes in each cluster given in parentheses. These sequences were aligned with all of the Arabidopsis and rice sequences in ClustalX (Thompson et al., 1997), the alignment was manually edited, all but representative sequences were removed, and the tree was calculated by the neighbor-joining method, bootstrapped with 1,000 trials, and then drawn with TreeView (Page, 1996). The grass plastid β-glucosidases, which are not represented in Arabidopsis and rice, are shown in the group marked “Plastid.” Percentage bootstrap reproducibility values are shown on internal branches where they are greater than 60%. Except those marked by asterisks, all external branches represent groups with 100% bootstrap reproducibility. To avoid excess complexity, those groups of sequences marked with asterisks are not monophyletic and represent more branches within the designated cluster than are shown.

Abstract Both 2-(α- and β-D-arabinofuranosyl) thiazole-4-carboxamides were synthesized from 2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-1-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-D-arabinofuranose via the 1-cyano- and 1-thioamide sugars. Anomeric assignments were made based on 1H and 13C NMR, as well as on CD spectra. 相似文献

A domain of epiglucan was synthesized by beta-glucosidases. Two beta-glucosidases, an extracellular beta-glucosidase derived from Sclerotinia sclerotiorum grown on xylose, and a commercial lyophilized preparation of beta-glucosidase from Aspergillus niger, were used to synthesize gluco-oligosaccharides from cellobiose and, specially, beta-(1-6) branched beta-(1-3) gluco-oligosaccharides, corresponding to the structure of epiglucan. Gentiobiose, cellotriose, cellotetraose, beta-Glc-(1-3)-beta-Glc-(1-4)-Glc, beta-Glc-(1-6)-beta-Glc-(1-4)-Glc and beta-Glc-(1-6)-beta-Glc-(1-3)-Glc were synthesized from cellobiose by both enzymes. The latter compound was preferentially synthesized by the beta-glycosidase from Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Under the best conditions, only 7 g l(-1) of beta-Glc-(1-6)-beta-Glc-(1-3)-Glc was synthesized by the beta-glycosidase from Aspergillus niger compared to 20 g l(-1) synthesized with beta-glycosidase from Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. 相似文献

A series of β-carboline derivatives bearing a substituted-carbohydrazide moiety at C-3 were synthesized and evaluated for their antitumor activity against eight human cancer cell lines. The β-carboline N-(substituted-benzylidene)carbohydrazides showed, in general, a greater antitumor activity than their N-(alkylidene)carbohydrazide analogues. The N(9)-methylation of β-carboline N-(substituted-benzylidene) carbohydrazides resulted in a decrease of antitumor activity. Among compounds tested, the benzylidene-carbohydrazides 3, 4, 11, 13, 16, 21 and 22 were the most active, possessing IC(50) less than 10 μM for six of the eight tumor cell lines assayed. The derivative 4 displayed the most significant activity toward all tested cell lines, with a remarkable cytotoxicity against renal (786-0) cell lines (IC(50)=0.04 μM). Compound 4 was assayed for its in vivo antineoplastic activity in the Ehrlich solid carcinoma assay. 相似文献

This present study identifies a number of azolyl-substituted indoles as potent inhibitors of aromatase. In the sub-series of 3-(azolylmethyl)-1H-indoles, four imidazole derivatives and their triazole analogues were tested. Imidazole derivatives 11 and 14 in which the benzyl moiety was substituted by 2-chloro and 4-cyano groups, respectively, were the most active, with IC50 values ranging between 0.054 and 0.050 μM. In the other sub-series, eight 3-(α-azolylbenzyl)-1H-indoles were prepared and tested. Compound 30, the N-ethyl imidazole derivative, proved to be an aromatase inhibitor, showing an IC50 value of 0.052 μM. All target compounds were further evaluated against 17α-hydroxylase/C17,20-lyase to determine their selectivity profile. 相似文献

Accumulation of Aβ in the brains of Alzheimer disease (AD) patients reflects an imbalance between Aβ production and clearance from their brains. Alternative cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by processing proteases generates soluble APP fragments including the neurotoxic amyloid Aβ40 and Aβ42 peptides that assemble into fibrils and form plaques. Plaque-buildup occurs over an extended time-frame, and the early detection and modulation of plaque formation are areas of active research. Radiolabeled probes for the detection of amyloid plaques and fibrils in living subjects are important for noninvasive evaluation of AD diagnosis, progression, and differentiation of AD from other neurodegenerative diseases and age-related cognitive decline. Tritium-labeled (E,E)-1-[3H]-2,5-bis(4′-hydroxy-3′-carbomethoxystyryl)benzene possesses an improved level of chemical stability relative to a previously reported radioiodinated analog for radiometric quantification of Aβ plaque and tau pathology in brain tissue and in vitro studies with synthetic Aβ and tau fibrils. 相似文献

During the past few years a significant rise in aspergillosis caused by filamentous fungus Aspergillus fumigatus has been recorded
particularly in immunocompromised patients. At present, there are limited numbers of antifungal agents to combat these infections
and the situation has become more complex due to emergence of antifungal resistance and side-effects of antifungal drugs. These
situations have increased the demand for novel drug targets. Recent studies have revealed that the β-1,3-endoglucanase (ENGL1)
plays an essential role in cell wall remodeling that is absolutely required during growth and morphogenesis of filamentous fungi
and thus is a promising target for the development of antifungal agents. Unfortunately no structural information of fungal β-
glucanases has yet been available in the Protein Databank (PDB). Therefore in the present study, 3D structure of β-(1,3)-
endoglucanase (ENGL1) was modeled by using I-TASSER server and validated with PROCHECK and VERIFY 3D. The best model
was selected, energy minimized and used to analyze structure function relationship with substrate β-(1,3)-glucan by C-DOCKER
(Accelrys DS 2.0). The results indicated that amino acids (GLU 380, GLN 383, ASP 384, TYR 395, SER 712, and ARG 713) present in
β-1,3-endoglucanase receptor are of core importance for binding activities and these residues are having strong hydrogen bond
interactions with β-(1,3)-glucan. The predicted model and docking studies permits initial inferences about the unexplored 3D
structure of the β-(1,3)-endoglucanase and may be promote in relational designing of molecules for structure-function studies. 相似文献

In the past half century research efforts have defined a critical role for angiogenesis in tumor growth and metastasis. We previously reported that inhibition of a novel target, ENOX1, by a (Z)-2-benzylindol-3-ylmethylene) quinuclidin-3-ol, suppressed tumor angiogenesis. The present study was undertaken in order to establish structure-activity relationships for quinuclidine analogs. The angiogenesis inhibiting activity of a series of substituted (Z)-(±)-2-(N-benzylindol-3-ylmethylene)quinuclidin-3-ols (1a-1k), (Z)-2-benzylindol-3-ylmethylene)quinuclidin-3-ones (2a-2h), (Z)-(±)-2-(1H/N-methyl-indol-3-ylmethylene)quinuclidin-3-ols (3a-3b), and substituted (Z)-(±)-2-(N-benzenesulfonylindol-3-yl-methylene)quinuclidin-3-ols and their derivatives (4a-4d) that incorporate a variety of substituents in both the indole and N-benzyl moieties was evaluated using Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) subjected to in vitro cell migration scratch assays, tubule formation in Matrigel, cell viability and proliferation assays. In total, 25 different analogs were evaluated. Based on in vitro cell migration scratch assays, eight analogs were identified as potent angiogenesis inhibitors at 10 μM, a concentration that was determined to be nontoxic by colony formation assay. In addition, this approach identified a potent antiangiogenic ENOX1 inhibitor, analog 4b. 相似文献

The pathogenic mycoplasma Ureaplasma parvum (Up) causes opportunistic infections and relies on salvage of nucleosides for DNA synthesis and Up thymidine kinase (UpTK) provides the necessary thymidine nucleotides. The anti-HIV compound 3?-azido-3′-deoxythymidine (AZT) is a good substrate for TK. Methods for a rapid and efficient synthesis of new 3′-α-[1,2,3]triazol-3′-deoxythymidine analogs from AZT under Huisgen conditions are described. Thirteen 3′-analogues were tested with human cytosolic thymidine kinase (hTK1) and UpTK. The new analogs showed higher efficiencies (Km/Vmax values) in all cases with UpTK than with hTK1. Still, hTK1 was preferentially inhibited by 9 out of 10 tested analogs. Structural models of UpTK and hTK1 were constructed and used to explain the kinetic results. Two different binding modes of the nucleosides within the active sites of both enzymes were suggested with one predominating in the bacterial enzyme and the other in hTK1. These results will aid future development of anti-mycoplasma nucleosides. 相似文献

Yeast glucan as normally prepared by various treatments of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) cell walls to remove mannan and glycogen is still heterogeneous. The major component (about 85%) is a branched beta-(1-->3)-glucan of high molecular weight (about 240000) containing 3% of beta-(1-->6)-glucosidic interchain linkages. The minor component is a branched beta-(1-->6)-glucan. A comparison of our results with those of other workers suggests that different glucan preparations may differ in the degree of heterogeneity and that the major beta-(1-->3)-glucan component may vary considerably in degree of branching. 相似文献

3-hydroxy-γ-butyrolactone (3HBL) is a versatile chiral synthon, deemed a top value-added chemical from biomass by the DOE. We recently reported the first biosynthetic pathway towards 3HBL and its hydrolyzed form, 3,4-dihydroxybutyric acid (3,4-DHBA) in recombinant Escherichia coli using glucose and glycolic acid as feedstocks and briefly described their synthesis solely from glucose. Synthesis from glucose requires integration of the endogenous glyoxylate shunt with the 3,4-DHBA/3HBL pathway and co-overexpression of seven genes, posing challenges with respect to expression, repression of the glyoxylate shunt and optimal carbon distribution between the two pathways. Here we discuss engineering this integration. While appropriate media and over-expression of glyoxylate shunt enzymes helped overcome repression, two orthogonal expression systems were employed to address the expression and carbon distribution challenge. Synthesis of up to 0.3 g/L of 3HBL and 0.7 g/L of 3,4-DHBA solely from glucose was demonstrated, amounting to 24% of the theoretical maximum. 相似文献

1. The components of an enzyme preparation from Aspergillus niger, which hydrolysed substrates containing beta-(1-->3)- and beta-(1-->4)-glucosidic linkages, were separated by calcium phosphate and Dowex 1 column chromatography. 2. The hydrolytic activity of each fraction from both types of column towards laminaribiose, laminarin, carboxymethylpachyman, pachydextrins, salicin, cellobiose, cellopentaose and swollen cellulose was tested. 3. The activity towards the beta-(1-->3)-glucosidic substrates was found in three well-separated groups of fractions. The differences in action pattern of these groups is discussed. 4. Preparative-scale chromatography that enabled the separation of a beta-(1-->4)-glucan-glucanohydrolase component substantially free of activity towards beta-(1-->3)-glucosidic substrates is described. Residual beta-(1-->3)-glucan-hydrolase activity was removed by adsorption on to insoluble laminarin at pH3.5. 相似文献

A novel -keto ester reductase (KER) was purified to homogeneity from recombinant Escherichia coli (pTrcKER) cells, which efficiently expressed the ker gene cloned from Penicillium citrinum IFO4631. The enzyme was monomeric and had a molecular mass of 37 kDa. It catalyzed the reduction of some -keto esters, especially alkyl 4-halo-3-oxobutyrates. However, it did not catalyze the reverse reaction, the dehydrogenation of alkyl 4-halo-3-hydroxybutyrates and other alcohols. The enzyme required NADPH as a cofactor and showed no activity with NADH. Therefore, it was defined as a NADPH-dependent aldo–keto reductase (AKR3E1), belonging to the AKR superfamily. The enzyme stereospecifically produced methyl (S)-4-bromo-3-hydroxybutyrate from its keto derivative with high stereospecificity (97.9% enantiomer excess). E. coli cells expressing KER and glucose dehydrogenase in the water/butyl acetate two-phase system achieved a high productivity of (S)-4-bromo-3-hydroxybutyrate (277 mM, 54 mg/ml) in the organic solvent layer. 相似文献

The aromatic amines tyramine and β-phenylethylamine are abundant in fermented foods. Recently, a family of human trace amine-associated receptors (hTAARs) was discovered that responds to these compounds. This study examined the expression of hTAAR genes in five human organs. Among them, the stomach expressed hTAAR1 and hTAAR9. Interestingly, more hTAAR1 was expressed in the pylorus than in the other stomach regions. The CRE-SEAP reporter assay revealed that only hTAAR1 functioned as a Gs-coupled receptor in response to tyramine and β-phenylethylamine stimulation. The β-phenylethylamine-mediated hTAAR1 activity could be potentiated using 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. These data suggest that tyramine and β-phenylethylamine in fermented foods act at hTAAR1 as agonists in the pylorus of stomach. 相似文献
