Fasciclin-like arabinogalactan proteins (FLAs), a subclass of arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs), have both predicted AGP-like glycosylated regions and putative fasciclin (FAS) domains, which may function in cell adhesion and communication. Previous studies have identified 21, 27, and 34 FLAs in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), rice (Oryza sativa), and wheat (Triticum aestivum), respectively. In this study, we identified 33 FLAs in the annotated genome of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis line Chiifu-401-42). Sequence analysis indicated that FAS domains each contain two highly conserved regions, named H1 and H2, and that 17 FLAs from B. rapa (BrFLAs) possess both of these regions. Prediction of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) modification sites suggested that 15 BrFLAs were GPI-anchored to the plasma membrane. Additionally, 25 BrFLAs may have been duplicated during the processes that shaped the triplicated genome of the mesopolyploid B. rapa. Expression analyses indicated that BrFLA1, BrFLA11, BrFLA13, BrFLA28 and BrFLA32 were specifically expressed in inflorescence. Meanwhile, BrFLA9 (homologous to AtFLA12) is specifically expressed in stem, and BrFLA6/22 (homologous to AtFLA11) is also highly expressed in stem, suggesting BrFLA6/9/22 may have the same functions as AtFLA11/12 in A. thaliana. Taken together, the identification and bioinformatic analysis of FLAs in B. rapa will open the way for studying their biological functions in plant growth and development as well as evolutionary history of this gene family from A. thaliana to B. rapa. 相似文献

Thirty optically active nonprotein α-amino acids and peptides based thereon have been screened for their ability to interact
with bovine trypsin and proteinase K from Tritirachium
album
Limber, which belong to the group of serine proteases. Both structure-based drug design approach and determination of enzyme activity
have been used to identify low molecular weight inhibitors of trypsin and proteinase K. Compounds have been selected that
according to the docking analysis were able to interact with trypsin and proteinase K. Following the docking analysis measurement
of enzymes activity (2R,3S)-β-hydroxyleucine and (2S,3R)-β-hydroxyleucine inhibited both enzymes activity, whereas (S)-α-methyl-β-phenylalanine, (R)-α-methyl-β-phenylalanine, (S)-allylglycine, (R)-allylglycine, (S)-α-allylalanine, (R)-α-allylalanine and allo-O-ethylthreonine inhibited only proteinase K; and N-formyl-(S)-methionyl-(2S,3R)-hydroxyleucine, N-formyl-(S)-methionyl-(2R,3S)-hydroxyleucine, N-formyl-(S)-methionyl-(S)-allylglycine and N-formyl-(S)-methionyl-(R)-allylglycine inhibited trypsin. It has been shown that inhibition of trypsin by (2R,3S)-β-hydroxyleucine and N-formyl-(S)-methionyl-(2R,3S)-hydroxyleucine is of a competitive mode. 相似文献

Leishmania, a digenetic protozoan parasite causes severe diseases in human and animals. Efficient evasion of toxic microbicidal molecules,
such as reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species is crucial for Leishmania to survive and replicate in the host cells. Tryparedoxin peroxidase, a member of peroxiredoxins family, is vital for parasite
survival in the presence of antioxidant, hence it is one of the most important molecules in Leishmania viability and then, it may be an appropriate goal for challenging against leishmaniasis. After cloning and sub-cloning of
TRYP6 from Leishmania major (MRHO/IR/75/ER), homology modeling of the LmTRYP6 was proposed to predict some functional property of this protein. The refined model showed that the core structure consists
of a seven β stranded β-sheet and five α helices which are organized as a central 7-stranded β2-β1-β5-β4-β3-β6-β7 surrounded
by 2-stranded β-hairpin, α helices A and D on one side, and α helices B, C and E on the other side. The peroxidatic active
site is located in a pocket formed by the residue Pro45, Met46, Thr49, Val51, Cys52, Arg128, Met147 and Pro 148. The catalytic
Cys52, located in the first turn of helix αB, is in van der Waals with a Pro45, a Thr49 and an Arg128 that are absolutely
conserved in all known Prx sequences. In this study, an attractive molecular target was studied. These results might be used
in designing of drugs to fight an important human pathogen. 相似文献

N-Carbamoyl-d-α-amino acid amidohydrolase (d-carbamoylase) was found to distinguish stereochemistry not only at the α-carbon but also at the β-carbon of N-carbamoyl-d-α-amino acids. The enzyme selectively acted on one of the four stereoisomers of N-carbamoyl-α,β-diastereomeric amino acids. This simultaneous recognition of two chiral centers by d-carbamoylase was useful for the fine stereoselective synthesis of α,β-diastereomeric amino acids such as threonine, isoleucine,
3,4-methylenedioxyphenylserine and β-methylphenylalanine. The stereoselectivity for the β-carbon was influenced by the pH
of the reaction mixture and by the bulk of the substituent at the β-carbon.

The bacterium Tsukamurella sp. nov., isolated from soil, was found to produce novel glycolipids when grown on sunflower oil as the sole carbon source.
The glycolipids were isolated by chromatography on silica columns and their structures elucidated using a combination of multidimensional
NMR and MS techniques. The three main components are 2,3-di-O-acyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl-(1-1)-α-d-glucopyranose, 2,3-di-O-acyl-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1-2)-4,6-di-O-acyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl-(1-1)-α-d-glucopyranose and 2,3-di-O-acyl-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1-2)-β-d-galactopyranosyl-(1-6)-4,6-di-O-acyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl-(1-1)-α-d-glucopyranosl which are linked to fatty acids varying in chain length from C4 to C18. The glycolipids are mainly extracellular but are also found attached to the cell walls. During the cultivation the composition
of the glycolipids changed from disaccharide- to tri- and tetrasaccharide lipids. The glycolipids show good surface-active
behaviour and have antimicrobial properties.

The monkeys on the island of Sulawesi (Celebes), Indonesia, comprise seven species ofMacaca, that isM. maura, M. tonkeana, M. hecki, M. nigrescens, M. nigra, M. ochreata, andM. brunnescens. Hemoglobins from 248 individuals of these seven species were analyzed by isoelectric focusing electrophoresis (IEFE) and
by starch gel electrophoresis in the presence of urea (USGE). Eighteen phenotypes consisting of eight molecular types were
identified by IEFE analysis. The speciestonkeana inhabiting the central part of the island revealed 11 phenotypes, while peripheral species such asnigrescens andbrunnescens carried only 3 and 2 phenotypes, respectively.
On USGE, three α chains and three β chains were identified and named α1, α2, and α6, and β1, β3, and β5, respectively. The
α1 chain has the same mobility as the α chains of other macaques, while the α2 chain is less positively charged than α1, and
α6 is the least positive among these α chains. The α2 chain is widely distributed in the Sulawesi macaques as the major component.
Four species,ochreata, tonkeana, maura, andnigrescens, carried the α1 and α6 chains as minor components. The electrophoretic mobility of β1 was the same as that of other macaques,
while β3 and β5 were more positively charged and less positively charged than β1, respectively. All of the Sulawesi species
had β3 in high or low gene frequencies and inmaura, tonkeana, andbrunnescens, this type was most abundant. β5 chain existed in the species of the northern peninsula, as the major type. The subordinate
type was β3 innigra andnigrescens and β1 inhecki. On the other hand, β1 was most frequently observed inochreata. 相似文献

Seven flavonol glycosides were isolated from the leaves ofT. apetalon. They were identified chromatographically and spectrally to be: quercetin/kaempferol 3-O-α-arabinopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-galactopyranoside (TQ and TK), quercetin/kaempferol 3-O-[2‴-O-acetyl-α-arabinopyranosyl]-(1→6)-β-galactopyranoside (TAQ and TAK), quercetin 3-O-β-glucoside (ISQ), isorhamnetin 3-O-α-arabinopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-galactopyranoside (TI) and isorhamnetin 3-O-[2‴-O-acetyl-α-arabinopyranosyl]-(1→6)-β-galactopyranoside (TAI). TQ, TAQ, TI and TAI were major constituents. This is the first
report on two new isorhamnetin-type glycosides, TI and TAI. The seven flavonol glycosides identical to those ofT. apetalon were isolated and identified in the leaves ofT. kamtschaticum; TQ and TAQ were also major components, but TI and TAI were only minor components. TI and TAI were not detected in the leaves
ofT. tschonoskii. These leaf-flavonoid patterns were discussed from a chemosystematic point of view.

The alkali extractable and water-soluble cell wall polysaccharides F1SS from Aspergillus wentii and Chaetosartorya chrysella have been studied by methylation analysis, 1D- and 2D-NMR, and MALDI-TOF analysis. Their structures are almost identical,
corresponding to the following repeating unit:
[→ 3)-β-D-Galf-(1 → 5)-β-D-Galf-(1 →]
n
→ mannan core.
The structure of this galactofuranose side chain differs from that found in the pathogenic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus, in other Aspergillii and members of Trichocomaceae:
[→ 5)-β-D-Galf-(1 →]
n
→ mannan core.
The mannan cores have also been investigated, and are constituted by a (1 → 6)-α-mannan backbone, substituted at positions
2 by chains from 1 to 7 residues of (1 → 2) linked α-mannopyranoses. Published in 2004.

Mannans are widespread hemicellulosic polysaccharides in plant cell walls. Hydrolysis of the internal β-1,4-d-mannopyranosyl linkage in the backbone of mannans is catalyzed by endo-β-mannanase. Plant endo-β-mannanase has been well studied for its function in seed germination. Its involvement in other plant biological processes, however, remains poorly characterized or elusive. The completed genome sequences of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), rice (Oryza sativa), and poplar (Populus trichocarpa) provide an opportunity to conduct comparative genomic analysis of endo-β-mannanase genes in these three species. In silico sequence analysis led to the identification of eight, nine and 11 endo-β-mannanase genes in the genomes of Arabidopsis, rice, and poplar, respectively. Sequence comparisons revealed the conserved amino acids and motifs that are critical for the active site of endo-β-mannanases. Intron/exon structure analysis in conjunction with phylogenetic analysis implied that both intron gain and intron loss has played roles in the evolution of endo-β-mannanase genes. The phylogenetic analysis that included the endo-β-mannanases from plants and other organisms implied that plant endo-β-mannanases have an ancient evolutionary origin. Comprehensive expression analysis of all Arabidopsis and rice endo-β-mannanase genes showed divergent expression patterns of individual genes, suggesting that the enzymes encoded by these genes, while carrying out the same biochemical reaction, are involved in diverse biological processes. 相似文献

When seedlings of lettuce, cress, rice and wheat were incubated with the leachate of wheat straw, the roots growth of lettuce
and garden cress were particularly inhibited. The leachate of wheat straw (100 g eq./l) showed 80.5 and 79.4% inhibition for
lettuce and cress roots, respectively. The inhibitory activity was stronger as the concentration of wheat straw leachate was
greater. This result indicates that allelochemical(s) inhibiting the roots growth of lettuce and cress are leached from the
wheat straw into the water. Two potent compounds were isolated from the leachate of the wheat straw and identified as syringoylglycerol
9-O-β-d-glucopyranoside and l-tryptophan by spectral analyses. Syringoylglycerol 9-O-β-d-glucopyranoside inhibited the roots growth of lettuce and cress at concentrations greater than 0.1 and 10.0 μM, respectively.
On the other hand, l-tryptophan inhibited the roots growth of lettuce and cress at concentrations greater than 0.1 and 1.0 μM, respectively. The
content of syringoylglycerol 9-O-β-d-glucopyranoside and l-tryptophan in the leachate of wheat straw (100 g eq./l) was 18.4 ± 0.7 and 6.2 ± 0.6 μM, respectively. Syringoylglycerol
9-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (18.4 μM) showed 21.5 and 13.5% inhibition in the lettuce and cress roots assay, respectively. On the other
hand, 6.2 μM of l-tryptophan showed 47.5 and 35.0% inhibition in the lettuce and cress roots assay, respectively. These results suggested that
l-tryptophan may be a major contributor to the allelopathy in aqueous leachate of wheat straw and syringoylglycerol 9-O-β-d-glucopyranoside may be a minor contributor. 相似文献

When α-d-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2
-p and β-d-(6-sulfo)-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2-p (2) were used as substrates, β-N-acetylhexosaminidase from Aspergillus oryzae transferred the β-d-(6-sulfo)-GlcNAc(unit from 2 to α-d-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2
-p to afford β-d-(6-sulfo)-GlcNAc-(1→4)-α-d-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2-p (3) in a yield of 94% based on the amount of donor, 2, added. β-d-(6-sulfo)-GlcNAc-(1→4)-α-d-Glc-OC6H4NO2-p (4) was obtained with α-d-Glc-OC6H4NO2
-p as acceptor in a similar manner. With a reaction mixture of 2 and β-d-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2-p (1) in a molar ratio of 6:1, the enzyme mediated the transfer of β-d-GlcNAc from 1 to 2, affording disaccharide β-d-GlcNAc-(1→4)-β-(6-sulfo)-d-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2-p (5) in a yield of 13% based on the amount of 1 added. 相似文献

The aim of this review is to highlight updated results on the biologically active saponins from Leguminosae-Mimosoideae. Acacic
acid-type saponins (AATS), is a class of very complex glycosides possessing a common aglycon unit of the oleanane-type (acacic
acid = 3β, 16α, 21β trihydroxy-olean-12-en-28 oic acid), having various oligosaccharide moieties at C-3 and C-28 and an acyl
group at C-21. About sixty molecules of this type have been actively explored in recent years from Leguminosae family, from
a chemical point of view and some fifty were reported to possess cancer related activities. These include cytotoxic/antitumor,
immunomodulatory, antimutagenic, and apoptosis inducing properties and appear to depend on the acylation and esterification
by different moieties at C-21 and C-28 of the acacic acid-type aglycone. One can observe that the (6S) configuration of the outer monoterpenyl moiety (MT) seems more potent in mediating high cytotoxicity than its (6R) isomer. Furthermore, the trisaccharide moiety {β-d-Xylopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-d-Fucopyranosyl-(1→6)- N-Acetamido 2-β-d-Glucopyranosyl-} at C-3, the tetrasaccharide moiety {β-d-Glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-[α-L-Arabinofuranosyl-(1→4)]-α-l-Rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-d-Glucopyranosyl} at C-28 of the aglycone, and the inner MT hydroxylated at its C-9, having a (6S) configuration can be important substituent patterns for the induction of apoptosis of AATS. Because of their interesting
cytotoxic/apoptosis inducing activity, some AATS can be useful in the search for new potential antitumor agents from Fabaceae.
Furthermore, the sequence 28-O-{Glc-(1→3)-[Araf-(1→4)]-Rha-(1→2)-Glc-Acacic acid}, often encountered in the genera Acacia, Albizia, Archidendron, and Pithecellobium may represent a chemotaxonomic marker of the Mimosoideae subfamily. 相似文献

Wheat flowering is controlled by numerous genes, which respond to environmental signals such as photoperiod and vernalization.
Earliness per se (Eps) genes control flowering time independently of these environmental cues and are responsible for the fine tuning of flowering
time. We recently mapped the Eps-A
m
1 gene on the end of Triticum monococcum chromosome arm 1AmL. As a part of our efforts to clone Eps-A
m
1 we developed PCR markers flanking this gene within a 2.7 cM interval. We screened more than one thousand gametes with these
markers and identified 27 lines with recombination between them. Recombinant lines were used to generate a high-density map
and to investigate the microcolinearity between wheat and rice in this region. We mapped ten genes from a 149 kb region located
at the distal part of rice chromosome 5 (cdo393 – Ndk3) on a 3.7 cM region on wheat chromosome one. This region is part of an ancient duplication between rice chromosomes 5 and
1. Genes present in both rice chromosomes were less similar to each other than to the closest wheat orthologues, suggesting
that this duplication preceded the divergence between wheat and rice. This hypothesis was supported by the presence of 18
loci duplicated both in rice chromosomes 5 and 1 and in the colinear wheat chromosomes from homoeologous groups 1 and 3. Independent
gene deletions in wheat and rice lineages explain the alternations of colinearity between rice chromosome 5 and wheat chromosomes
1 and 3. Colinearity between the end of rice chromosome 5 and wheat chromosome 1 was also interrupted by a small inversion,
and several non-colinear genes. These results suggest that the distal region of the long arm of wheat chromosome 1 was involved
in numerous changes that differentiated wheat and rice genomes. This comparative study provided sufficient markers to saturate
the Eps-A
m
1 gene region and to precisely map this gene within a 0.9 cM interval flanked by the VatpC and Smp loci.

Lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) of two strains Pragia fontium 97U116 and 27480 were isolated and characterized; they were close to those of other representatives of the family Enterobacteriaceae in fatty acid composition and contained, respectively, 3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid as the predominant component (45.8 and 45.1%), tetradecanoic (23.5 and 28.9%), hexadecanoic (12.6 and 7.9%), hexadecenoic (12.6 and 7.9%), and dodecanoic (4.9 and 4.2%) fatty acids. The O-specific polysaccharides consisted of linear penta- and tetrasaccharide repeating units: →2)-α-D-Galf-(1→3)-α-L-Rhap2Ac-(1→4)-α-D-GlcpNAc-(1→2)-α-L-Rhap-(1→3)-β-D-GlcpNAc-(1→ →4)-β-D-ManpNAc3NAcA-(1→2)-α-L-Rhap-(1→3)-β-L-Rhap-(1→4)-α-D-GlcpNAc-(1→ The LPSs of P. fontium 97U116 and 27480 were serologically active and belonged to different serogroups; they were less toxic than those of strain E. coli O55:B5, but more pyrogenic than the Pyrogenal preparation. 相似文献

Haemoglobins of five tilapiine species of the genera Oreochromis and Sarotherodon were investigated. By gel filtration chromatography a molecular weight of 67–69 kDa was determined for the tetrameric molecules
which remained stable between pH 5.0 and pH 9.1. When subjected to sodium dodecyl sulphate-Urea-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
(PAGE), haemoglobins of all species each were split into monomers of three different molecular weights ranging between 16.3
kDA and 17.6 kDa. Subsequently, isoelectric focusing separated haemolysates into about 23 differently charged tetrameric haemoglobins
that were arranged in species-specific patterns. This diversity was shown to result from the occurrence of different types
of globin chains. By acidic urea PAGE a total of seven major α-globins and five major β-globins were detected and species-characteristic
chain variants were identified. To determine the globin chain composition of particular haemoglobin tetramers, 26 bands were
isolated by isoelectric focusing and analysed by acidic urea PAGE. Tetramers consisted of doublets of identical α- and identical
β-chains (α2β2, symmetric tetramers), or combinations of three (α2ββ*; αα*β2) or four (αα*ββ*) distinct chains (asymmetric tetramers). Finally, globin chains of Oreochromis niloticus were subjected to partial N-terminal amino acid sequencing. Differences in the composition of the three major β-chains could
be shown, whereas the α-chains were N-terminally blocked.
