Objective

To investigate the biocatalytic potential of Colletotrichum acutatum and Colletotrichum nymphaeae for monoterpene biotransformation.

Results

C. acutatum and C. nymphaeae used limonene, α-pinene, β-pinene, farnesene, citronellol, linalool, geraniol, perillyl alcohol, and carveol as sole carbon and energy sources. Both species biotransformed limonene and linalool, accumulating limonene-1,2-diol and linalool oxides, respectively. α-Pinene was only biotransformed by C. nymphaeae producing campholenic aldehyde, pinanone and verbenone. The biotransformation of limonene by C. nymphaeae yielded 3.34–4.01 g limonene-1,2-diol l?1, depending on the substrate (R-(+)-limonene, S-(?)-limonene or citrus terpene (an agro-industrial by-product). This is among the highest concentrations already reported for this product.

Conclusions

This is the first report on the biotransformation of these terpenes by Colletotrichum spp. and the biotransformation of limonene to limonene-1,2-diol possibly involves enzymes similar to those found in Grosmannia clavigera.

A complex study on the adaptation of cn and vn mutants and the allozymes of alcoholdehydrogenase (ADH) was carried out in initially pure lines, and their panmixia populations during exchange of the mutant genotype with that of wild-type flies (C-S) and D) through saturating crossings. The relative adaptation of the genotypes was estimated by their effect on reproductive efficiency in the experimentally obtained population. Fecundity, lifespan, and the resistance of the studied genotypes to hyperthermia were investigated individually. It was shown that the high level of adaptation of the cn mutants and the low level of adaptation of the vg mutants was correlated with the presence of different ADH allozymes. In the studied population, the F-allozyme of ADH accompanied the vg mutation, while the S-allozyme of the enzyme was detected in cn mutants. Saturating crossings of C-S(Adh Svg(Adh F) and D(Adh F) × cn(Adh S), along with the parallel determination of the allele composition of the Adh locus, demonstrated that the complete substitution of the F-allozyme of ADH in the vg mutants by the S-allozyme in D flies, as well as the substitution of the S-allozyme of ADH in the cn mutants by the F-allozyme in D flies was realized only after the 15th–20th backcrosses. These results favor the coadaptation of cn and vg marker genes with alleles of the Adh locus and indicate the important role of the latter in the adaptation of genotypes. In the studied population, selection acted primarily against the vg mutants, which were inferior to the cn mutants, and heterozygote genotypes in indices of the main adaptation components.  相似文献

As observed in other self-incompatible species in the Pyrinae subtribe, loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) demonstrates gametophytic self-incompatibility that is controlled by the S-locus, which encodes a polymorphic stylar ribonuclease (S-RNase). This allows the female reproductive organ (style) to recognize and reject the pollen from individuals with the same S-alleles, but allows the pollen from individuals with different S-alleles to effect fertilization. The S-genotype is therefore an important consideration in breeding strategies and orchard management. In an attempt to optimize the selection of parental lines in loquat production, the S-RNase alleles of 35 loquat cultivars and their 26 progeny, as well as five wild loquat species, were identified and characterized in this study. The best pollinizer cultivar combinations were also explored. A total of 28 S-alleles were detected, 21 of which constituted novel S-RNase alleles. The S-haplotypes S2 and S6 were the most frequent, followed by S 29 , S 31 , S 5 , S 24 , S 28 , S 33 , S 34 , S 32 , and S 15 , while the rare alleles S 1 , S 9 , S 14 , S 16 , S 17 , S 18 , S 19 , S 20 , S 21 , S 22 , S 23 , S 27 , and S 35 were only observed in one of the accessions tested. Moreover, the S-genotypes of five wild loquat species (E. prinoides, E. bengalensis, E. prinoides var. dadunensis, E. deflexa, and E. japonica) are reported here for the first time. The results will not only facilitate the selection of suitable pollinators for optimal orchard management, but could also encourage the crossbreeding of wild loquat species to enhance the genetic diversity of loquat cultivars.  相似文献

Hybridization between alien and native species is biologically very important and could lead to genetic erosion of native taxa. Solidago × niederederi was discovered over a century ago in Austria and described by Khek as a natural hybrid between the alien (nowadays regarded also as invasive) S. canadensis and native S. virgaurea. Although interspecific hybridization in the genus Solidago is considered to be relatively common, hybrid nature of S. × niederederi has not been independently proven using molecular tools, to date. Because proper identification of the parentage for the hybrid Solidago individuals solely based on morphological features can be misleading, in this paper we report an additive polymorphism pattern expressed in the ITS sequences obtained from individuals representing S. × niederederi, and confirm the previous hypothesis that the parental species of this hybrid are S. canadensis and S. virgaurea. Additionally, based on variability at the cpDNA rpl32-trnL locus, we showed that in natural populations hybridization occurs in both directions.  相似文献

Recombinant S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase from Corynebacterium glutamicum (CgSAHase) was covalently bound to Eupergit® C. The maximum yield of bound protein was 91% and the catalytic efficiency was 96.9%. When the kinetic results for the immobilized enzyme were compared with those for the soluble enzyme, no decrease in the catalytic efficiency of the former was detected. Both soluble and immobilized enzymes showed similar optimum pH and temperature ranges. The reuse of immobilized CgSAHase caused a loss of synthetic activity due to NAD+ release, although the binding to the support was sufficiently strong for up to 5 cycles with 95% conversion efficiency. The immobilized enzyme was incubated every 3 cycles with 100 μM NAD+ to recover the loss of activity after 5 cycles. This maintained the activity for another 50 cycles. The purification of S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) provided an overall yield of 76% and 98% purity as determined by HPLC and NMR analyses. The results indicate the suitability of immobilized CgSAHase for synthesizing SAH and other important S-nucleosidylhomocysteine.  相似文献

Radish, belonging to the family Brassicaceae, has a self-incompatibility which is controlled by multiple alleles on the S locus. To employ the self-incompatibility in an F1 breeding system, identification of S haplotypes is necessary. Since collection of S haplotypes and determination of nucleotide sequences of SLG, SRK, and SCR alleles in cultivated radish have been conducted by different groups independently, the same or similar sequences with different S haplotype names and different sequences with the same S haplotype names have been registered in public databases, resulting in confusion of S haplotype names for researchers and breeders. In the present study, we developed S homozygous lines from radish F1 hybrid cultivars in Japan and determined the nucleotide sequences of SCR, the S domain and the kinase domain of SRK, and the SLG of a large number of S haplotypes. Comparing these sequences with our previously published sequences, the haplotypes were ordered into 23 different S haplotypes. The sequences of the 23 S haplotypes were compared with S haplotype sequences registered by different groups, and we suggested a unification of these S haplotypes. Furthermore, dot-blot hybridization using SRK allele-specific probes was examined for developing a standard method for S haplotype identification.  相似文献

Objectives

To engineer the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the heterologous production of linalool.

Results

Expression of linalool synthase gene from Lavandula angustifolia enabled heterologous production of linalool in S. cerevisiae. Downregulation of ERG9 gene, that encodes squalene synthase, by replacing its native promoter with the repressible MET3 promoter in the presence of methionine resulted in accumulation of 78 µg linalool l?1 in the culture medium. This was more than twice that produced by the control strain. The highest linalool titer was obtained by combined repression of ERG9 and overexpression of tHMG1. The yeast strain harboring both modifications produced 95 μg linalool l?1.

Conclusions

Although overexpression of tHMG1 and downregulation of ERG9 enhanced linalool titers threefold in the engineered yeast strain, alleviating linalool toxicity is necessary for further improvement of linalool biosynthesis in yeast.

In vitro growth, development, total soluble proteins and peroxidase profiles of Salvadora oleoides and Salvadora persica under NaCl stress were analysed in the present investigation. The plants are evergreen haloxeric tree species of family Salvadoraceae. Shoot apex from natural plants were initially used for screening of NaCl tolerance on MS culture medium. Shoot apex of S. oleoides and S. persica could survive optimally up to 200 and 100 mM NaCl. Axillary buds from nodal shoot segments of S. oleoides and S. persica were activated on 6 and 4 μM BAP, and were used further for extraction of total soluble proteins and peroxidases. Total soluble proteins were increased up to 150 mM NaCl in S. oleoides, but decline above 50 mM NaCl in S. persica. Peroxidase activity remained almost constant in S. oleoides at all the concentrations and duration of NaCl, but increased at 100 mM NaCl during fourth week of treatment in S. persica. Eleven peroxidase isozymes were observed in zymogram of S. oleoides. Isozymes P1, P2, P3, and P4 were slightly appeared, but P6 isozyme was lacking in S. persica. The P5 isozyme was more prominent in S. persica than S. oleoides. Isozyme P9 of S. persica was visible during the first week of NaCl treatment, but disappeared in the fourth week. Molecular biology of these plants can be useful further for the understanding of stress tolerance mechanisms for prospects.  相似文献

Polyploid Prunus spinosa (2n = 4×) and P. insititia (2n = 6×) represent enormous genetic potential in Central Europe, which can be exploited in breeding programmes. In Hungary, 17 cultivar candidates were selected from wild-growing populations including 10 P. spinosa, 4 P. insititia and three P. spinosa × P. domestica hybrids (2n = 5×). Their taxonomic classification was based on their phenotypic characteristics. Six simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and the multiallelic S-locus genotyping were used to characterize genetic variability and reliable identification of the tested accessions. A total of 98 SSR alleles were identified, which presents 19.5 average allele number per locus, and each of the 17 genotypes could be discriminated based on unique SSR fingerprints. A total of 23 S-RNase alleles were identified. The complete and partial S-genotype was determined for 8 and 9 accessions, respectively. The identification of a cross-incompatible pair of cultivar candidates and several semi-compatible combinations help maximize fruit set in commercial orchards. Our results indicate that the S-allele pools of wild-growing P. spinosa and P. insititia are overlapping in Hungary. A phylogenetic and principal component analysis confirmed the high level of diversity and genetic differentiation present within the analysed genotypes and helped clarify doubtful taxonomic identities. Our data confirm that S-locus genotyping is suitable for diversity studies in polyploid Prunus species. The analysed accessions represent huge genetic potential that can be exploited in commercial cultivation.  相似文献

Six new natural compounds were isolated from two Far Eastern starfish species, Henricia aspera and H. tumida, collected in the Sea of Okhotsk. Two new glycosylated steroid polyols were obtained from H. aspera: asperoside A and asperoside B, which were shown to be (20R,24R, 25S)-3-O-(2,3-di-O-methyl-β -D-xylopyranosyl)-24-methyl-5α-cholest-4-ene-3β, 6β,8,15α,16β,26-hexaol and (20R, 24R,25S,22E)-3-O-(2,4-di-O-methyl-β-D-xylopyranosyl)-24-methyl-5α-cholest-22-ene-3β,4β,6β,8,15α,26-hexaol, respectively. Two other glycosylated polyols, tumidoside A, with the structure elucidated as (20R, 22E)-3-O-(2,4-di-O-methyl-β -D-xylopyranosyl)-26,27-dinor-24-methyl-5α-cholest-22-ene-3β,4β,6β,8,15α,25-hexaol, and tumidoside B, whose structure was elucidated as (20R,24S)-3-O-(2,3-di-O-methyl-β-D-xylopyranosyl)-5α-cholestan-3β,4β,6β,8,15α,24-hexaol, were isolated from the two starfish species. (20R, 24S)-5α-Cholestan-3β,6β,15α,24-tetraol and (20R, 24S)-5α-cholestan-3β,6β,8,15α,24-pentaol were identified only in H. tumida. The known monoglycosides henricioside H1 and laeviuscolosides H and G were also identified in both species.  相似文献

This is the first report of Sordaria fimicola-like ascomycete which was encountered during a diversity study of injured tissues of coulter pine in Slovakia. The fungus was identified as Sordaria fimicola by morphological analyses. Sequence analysis of internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) showed that the fungus is highly related to the ITS sequences of several S. fimicola isolates documenting wide ecological valence and geographical distribution of S. fimicola-like ascomycetes.  相似文献

Here we evaluate the origins and relationships of Mexican and Central American Diplazium hybrids derived from crosses involving either D. plantaginifolium or D. ternatum. Based on study of live plants and herbarium specimens, we distinguish D. ×verapax from the similar D. riedelianum and present evidence that the former is a sterile hybrid derived from a cross between D. plantaginifolium and D. werckleanum. We also describe new hybrids, D. ×torresianum and D. ×subternatum from Mexico and northern Central America. Both involve D. ternatum as one parent. Diplazium. cristatum is the other putative parent of D. ×torresianum, and D. plantaginifolium is the second parent of D. ×subternatum. We also designate lectotypes for D. cordovense and D. dissimile.  相似文献

To detect point mutations A2115C, A2143G/C, and A2144G in the 23S rRNA gene of Helicobacter pylori associated with resistance of the microorganism to clarithromycin, a new powerful way of analysis was used. This method involved the reaction of minisequencing followed by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry of reaction products. In ten analyzed clarithromycin-resistant clinical isolates of H. pylori obtained in Russia, the resistance was found to be mediated only by mutation A2144G in the 23S rRNA gene.  相似文献

Key message

Arabidopsis det1 mutants exhibit salt and osmotic stress resistant germination. This phenotype requires HY5, ABF1, ABF3, and ABF4.

Abstract

While DE-ETIOLATED 1 (DET1) is well known as a negative regulator of light development, here we describe how det1 mutants also exhibit altered responses to salt and osmotic stress, specifically salt and mannitol resistant germination. LONG HYPOCOTYL 5 (HY5) positively regulates both light and abscisic acid (ABA) signalling. We found that hy5 suppressed the det1 salt and mannitol resistant germination phenotype, thus, det1 stress resistant germination requires HY5. We then queried publically available microarray datasets to identify genes downstream of HY5 that were differentially expressed in det1 mutants. Our analysis revealed that ABA regulated genes, including ABA RESPONSIVE ELEMENT BINDING FACTOR 3 (ABF3), are downregulated in det1 seedlings. We found that ABF3 is induced by salt in wildtype seeds, while homologues ABF4 and ABF1 are repressed, and all three genes are underexpressed in det1 seeds. We then investigated the role of ABF3, ABF4, and ABF1 in det1 phenotypes. Double mutant analysis showed that abf3, abf4, and abf1 all suppress the det1 salt/osmotic stress resistant germination phenotype. In addition, abf1 suppressed det1 rapid water loss and open stomata phenotypes. Thus interactions between ABF genes contribute to det1 salt/osmotic stress response phenotypes.

In this contribution on the genus Cantharellus in Asia, C. subvaginatus is described from the Republic of Korea as a close relative to the Chinese C. vaginatus, which is here reported for the first time from India. Both species are here placed in Cantharellus subg. Cantharellus sect. Amethystini, together with the Indian C. pseudoformosus (syn.: C. umbonatus) and the Malayan C. subamethysteus. As such, Asia has suddenly become the continent with the highest diversity for Amethystini. Species delimitation in sect. Amethystini is molecularly supported by a combined phylogenetic analysis of rDNA sequences obtained for LSU and ITS and additionally suggests the existence of a still undescribed species in North America. Character variability is discussed for all known members of Amethystini, including atypical specimens of the North American C. lewisii that are morphologically more reminiscent of the South Korean C. subvaginatus.  相似文献

The gene of Pae1263 (2,196 bp, 732 aa) was found from the full-length sequence analysis of bacterium Paenibacillus terrae HPL-003 isolated from soil on Gara Mountain in Korea (CP003107, our previous study). Among the 20 open reading frames (ORFs) related with the xylose substrate, only the recombinant enzyme of ORF Pae1263 showed a 1,4-beta-D-xylosidase activity when all of the ORFs were transformed into E. coli. This gene is considered to be a new 1,4-beta-D-xylosidase because it has up to 93% similarity with other genes of ZP_10240221.1 from Lactococcus raffinolactis 4877 and ZP_11237858.1 from Paenibacillus peoriae in the GenBank blast search. The enzyme activity was confirmed by HPLC in which xylose was produced from xylobiose as a substrate by this recombinant enzyme. Mass production of the recombinant enzyme was done with the construction of the pET22(+)- Pae1263-6H expression vector system from E. coli. This new 1,4-beta-D-xylosidase was highly active at 50°C in a pH range between 6.0 and 8.0 and had thermo-stability for at least 24 h at 50°C and a K m and V max of 6.42 mg/mL and 75.76 U/mg on a xylobiose substrate, respectively.  相似文献

During our search for novel prenyltransferases, a putative gene ATEG_04218 from Aspergillus terreus raised our attention and was therefore amplified from strain DSM 1958 and expressed in Escherichia coli. Biochemical investigations with the purified recombinant protein and different aromatic substrates in the presence of dimethylallyl diphosphate revealed the acceptance of all the tested tryptophan-containing cyclic dipeptides. Structure elucidation of the main enzyme products by NMR and MS analyses confirmed the attachment of the prenyl moiety to C-7 of the indole ring, proving the identification of a cyclic dipeptide C7-prenyltransferase (CdpC7PT). For some substrates, reversely C3- or N1-prenylated derivatives were identified as minor products. In comparison to the known tryptophan-containing cyclic dipeptide C7-prenyltransferase CTrpPT from Aspergillus oryzae, CdpC7PT showed a much higher substrate flexibility. It also accepted cyclo-l-Tyr-l-Tyr as substrate and catalyzed an O-prenylation at the tyrosyl residue, providing the first example from the dimethylallyltryptophan synthase (DMATS) superfamily with an O-prenyltransferase activity towards dipeptides. Furthermore, products with both C7-prenyl at tryptophanyl and O-prenyl at tyrosyl residue were detected in the reaction mixture of cyclo-l-Trp-l-Tyr. Determination of the kinetic parameters proved that (S)-benzodiazepinedione consisting of a tryptophanyl and an anthranilyl moiety was accepted as the best substrate with a K M value of 204.1 μM and a turnover number of 0.125 s?1. Cyclo-l-Tyr-l-Tyr was accepted with a K M value of 1,411.3 μM and a turnover number of 0.012 s?1.  相似文献
