The fatty-acid composition of C. roseus and N. tabacum cell suspension cultures was unaffected by subculture on Wood and Braun, Murashige and Skoog, or Gamborg B5C media. However, placing the cultures — which were normally grown at 25° C — at 15° C reduced growth but resulted in enhanced formation of oleic and linolenic acids in C. roseus cultures and increased levels of linoleic and linolenic acids in cultures of G. max and N. tabacum, respectively. The incorporation of [14C]acetate into [14C]linoleic acid was more rapid in N. tabacum cells than in G. max cells, but was very poor in C. roseus where the [14C] label was distributed mainly between palmitic and oleic acids. 相似文献

Gluconobacter oxydans was grown successively in glucose and nitrogen-limited chemostat cultures. Construction of mass balances of organisms growing at increasing dilution rates in glucose-limited cultures, at pH 5.5, revealed a major shift from extensive glucose metabolism via the pentose phosphate pathway to the direct pathway of glucose oxidation yielding gluconic acid. Thus, whereas carbon dioxide production from glucose accounted for 49.4% of the carbon input at a dilution rate (D)=0.05 h-1, it accounted for only 1.3% at D=0.26 h-1. This decline in pentose phosphate pathway activity resulted in decreasing molar growth yields on glucose. At dilution rates of 0.05 h-1 and 0.26 h-1 molar growth yields of 19.5 g/mol and 3.2 g/mol, respectively, were obtained. Increase of the steady state glucose concentration in nitrogen-limited chemostat cultures maintained at a constant dilution rate also resulted in a decreased flow of carbon through the pentose phosphate pathway. Above a threshold value of 15–20 mM glucose in the culture, pentose phosphate pathway activity almost completely inhibited. In G. oxydans the coupling between energy generation and growth was very inefficient; yield values obtained at various dilution rates varied between 0.8–3.4 g/cells synthesized per 0.5 mol of oxygen consumed. 相似文献

In vitro enzyme activities of glycolysis, pentose-phosphate pathway and dark CO2 fixation were assayed in batch cultures of heterotrophic Catharanthus roseus cells under various gassing rates and partial pressures of carbon dioxide. Detrimental effects of low pCO2 culture conditions on the growth characteristics could be linked to marked changes in levels of enzymes of primary metabolism during growth. The enzyme levels observed during the early stages of growth were found to be more stable when a constant pCO2 (20 mbar) was maintained and enabled exponential growth to be reached more rapidly.The importance of carbon dioxide as a conditioning factor of the culture medium is discussed. 相似文献

Hairy root cultures of Catharanthus roseus were established by infection with six different Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains. Two plant varieties were used and found to exhibit significantly different responses to infection. Forty-seven hairy root clones derived from normal plants and two derived from the flowerless variety were screened for their growth and indole alkaloid production. The growth rate and morphological appearance showed wide variations between the clones. The alkaloid spectra observed were qualitatively but not quantitatively very similar to that of the corresponding normal plant roots. No vindoline or deacetyltransferase activity could be detected in any of the cultures studied. O-acetylval-lesamine, an alkaloid which has not been previously observed in C. roseus was identified from extracts of hairy root clone No. 8. Two root clones were examined for their growth and alkaloid accumulation during a 26-day culture period. Alkaloid accumulation parallelled growth in both clones with ca. 2 mg ajmalicine and catharanthine per g dry weight being observed.Dedicated to Dr. Friedrich Constabel on the occasion of his 60th birthday 相似文献

When various autoclaved microbial cells suspensions (exogenous elicitors) were added to Catharanthus roseus cell cultures, its growth was inhibited but 5′-phosphodiesterase (PDase) production was stimulated. The greatest effect was with autoclaved Alteromonas macleodii: the dry cell concentration decreased from 13 to 10.9 mg/ml while PDase production increased from 0.022 to 0.235 U/ml. A combination of A. macleodii (as exogenous elicitor) and 0.1%(w/v) alginate oligomers (AO: acting as both endogenous elicitor and scavenger of active oxygen species) minimized the cell growth inhibition but enhanced PDase production (0.474 U/ml) about 20 times higher than the control (no addition). The method for the preparation of mixed alginate elicitors with high activities containing exogenous elicitor (autoclaved A. macleodii), endogenous elicitor (AO), and trans-4,5-dihydroxy-2-cyclopenten-1-one was developed. The mixed alginate elicitors significantly promoted PDase production (2.67 U/ml) by C. roseus, and the productivity was increased 120-fold compared to the control without cell growth inhibition. 相似文献

Summary Growth and alkaloid production of surface-immobilized C. roseus cells were studied in a 2-1 bioreactor. Media designed to maximize cell growth or alkaloid production were employed. Nitrate and carbohydrate consumption rates as well as growth rates and biomass yields of immobilized cultures were equal or somewhat lower than for cell suspension cultures. Respiration rate (O2 consumption and CO2 production rates) of immobilized C. roseus cell cultures was obtained by on-line analysis of inlet and outlet gas composition using a mass spectrometer. Respiration rate increased during the growth phase and decreased once the nitrogen or the carbon source was depleted from the medium. The respiration rate of immobilized C. roseus cells resembled rates reported in the literature for suspension cultures.

We established an efficient plant regeneration system for Catharanthus roseus L. (G.) Don through somatic embryogenesis. Embryogenic callus was induced from hypocotyl of seed germinated in vitro. Somatic
embryogenesis in Catharanthus has been categorized into three distinct stages: (1) initiation and proliferation of embryo; (2) maturation, and; (3) germination
or plantlet conversion. Beside plant growth regulators, various stages of embryogenesis were screened for their response to
a wide variety of factors (pH, gelrite, light, sugar alcohols, polyethyleneglycol and amino acids), which affect embryogenesis.
All of the tested factors had a small to marked influence on embryogeny and eventual conversion to plantlets. The plantlets
were acclimatized successfully in a greenhouse. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing a detailed study of
various cultural factors which regulate embryogenesis in C. roseus. The results discussed in this paper may be used in mass propagation to produce medicinal raw material, and the embryo precursor
cells could be used in genetic modification programmes that aim to improve the alkaloid yield as well. 相似文献

An investigation was carried out to examine the effect of aerationon the growth of Catharanthus roseus suspension cultures inairlift bioreactors. A high aeration rate (0·86 v.v.m.)was found to inhibit the growth of cultures. Venting culturesat a high rate with low oxygen content gas mixtures was equallyinhibitory to culture growth, showing that high aeration wasnot inhibitory as a result of oxygen toxicity. The dissolvedcarbon dioxide tension was found to be lower in cultures operatedat high aeration than those operated at low aeration. Supplyingexogenous CO2 to cultures at high aeration restored the CO2tension to values normally encountered at a low aeration rate,and was found to alleviate the inhibitory effects at high aeration.However, further increasing the CO2 supply to cultures was foundto be severely inhibitory to growth. Therefore, the growth ofC. roseus cultures is very sensitive to dissolved CO2 concentration,growth being inhibited at values either higher or lower thanan optimum.

A chemolithoautotrophic type of metabolism, which was hitherto unknown for purple nonsulfur bacteria, was demonstrated by growth experiments using Rhodopseudomonas capsulata Kb1 and Rhodopseudomonas acidophila 10050. These strains were able to grow in a mineral medium in the dark at the expense of H2, O2, and CO2. A minimum doubling time of 9 h was obtained for R. capsulata under an atmosphere containing less than 15% oxygen; higher oxygen concentrations suppressed autotrophic but not chemoorganotrophic growth. Oxygen sensitivity of chemoautotrophically growing cells of R. acidophila was even more pronounced, whereas cells growing chemotrophically on methanol almost tolerated the oxygen concentration of air. Highest oxygen sensitivity of growth of R. acidophila was observed with formate as substrate. The growth yield of cultures grown semiaerobically in the dark on methanol was 0.23 g dry cell material per g methanol consumed. 相似文献

Tryptophan decarboxylase (TDC, EC 4.1.1.28) from Catharanthus roseus hairy roots was purified 80-fold. Antibodies against TDC were obtained and they recognized only one protein of 55 kDa in
crude extracts from hairy root cultures. Elicitation of transformed root cultures with macerozyme yielded a marked increase
in TDC activity, which was accompanied by a similar increase in the amount of immunoreactive TDC protein. These results suggest
that the alkaloid accumulation, produced by elicitation, requires the synthesis of new TDC polypeptide in C. roseus root cultures and establishes important differences in the regulatory control of this enzyme in root cultures compared to
developing seedlings, where the posttranslational regulation apparently plays a major role. 相似文献

The anticancer agents vinblastine and vincristine are bisindole alkaloids derived from coupling vindoline and catharanthine, monoterpenoid indole alkaloids produced exclusively by the Madagascar periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus). Industrial production of vinblastine and vincristine currently relies on isolation from C. roseus leaves, a process that affords these compounds in 0.0003–0.01% yields. Metabolic engineering efforts to either improve alkaloid content or provide alternative sources of the bisindole alkaloids ultimately rely on the isolation and characterization of the genes involved. Several vindoline biosynthetic genes have been isolated, and the cellular and subcellular organization of the corresponding enzymes has been well studied. However, due to the leaf-specific localization of vindoline biosynthesis, and the lack of production of this precursor in cell suspension and hairy root cultures of C. roseus, further elucidation of this pathway demands the development of reverse genetics approaches to assay gene function in planta. The bipartite pTRV vector system is a Tobacco Rattle Virus-based virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) platform that has provided efficient and effective means to assay gene function in diverse plant systems. A VIGS method was developed herein to investigate gene function in C. roseus plants using the pTRV vector system. The utility of this approach in understanding gene function in C. roseus leaves is demonstrated by silencing known vindoline biosynthetic genes previously characterized in vitro. 相似文献

Glucosylation of exogenous vanillin by plant cell cultures 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
After feeding with vanillin,Vanilla planifolia Andrews cell culture was able to produce the highest amount of glucovanillin compared to Ilex dumosaReissek and Catharanthus roseus (L.) G.Don cell cultures. The optimum yield of glucovanillin was obtained from V. planifolia cells fed with 6.6 mM vanillin and harvested after 12 h. The yield was 3.28 mM glucovanillin (49.7%). This glucoside was stored mainly in the cells. 相似文献

Distribution of alginate oligomers (AO) which are endogenous elicitor-like substances, in cultured plant cells were investigated by using AO conjugated with monopotassium 7-amino-1,3-naphthalenedisulfonate (ANDS). When AO-ANDS was added at 0.5 g l–1 to the Catharanthus roseus cell culture, it adhered to the cells as observed by fluorescence microscopy. Using protoplasts of C. roseus, AO-ANDS was found not only in the cell walls but also in the cell membrane and cytoplasm. When C. roseus was cultivated in a medium containing oligo-galacturonic acids, as an endogenous elicitor, this was also found in the cell wall, cell membrane and cytoplasm of C. roseus cells. Similar results were also obtained with Wasabia japonica cells. 相似文献

Chlorella vulgaris was grown photosynthetically in batch culture under nitrogen sufficiency or nitrogen limitation. The starch content of the
cells was measured as the amount of glucose released by enzymic hydrolysis of partially purified starch. Nitrogen sufficient
algae contained approximately 20% of their dry weight as starch, whereas in nitrogen limited cells starch comprised up to
55% of the cellular dry weight. Starch production was pH dependent; optimal production of starch was achieved between pH 7.5
and 8.0. Optimal growth of C. vulgaris occurred at pH 7.0. Carbon yield experiments showed that for every gram of carbon consumed 0.5 g of starch (glucose) could
be recovered.

A new monoxenic culture of the anaerobic ciliate Trimyema compressum was established on the purple nonsulfur bacterium Rubrivivax gelatinosus. Compared with the first monoxenic culture of T. compressum on a Bacteroides species no significant difference in growth rate was observed. Using both monoxenic cultures the fermentation products of the ciliate, acetate, lactate, formate and succinate were quantified. Ammonium was another product of the ciliates metabolism. The amount of the endproducts was dependent on the amount of bacteria consumed. The ratio of carbon consumed to ammonium formed was 8.7:1 indicating incomplete degradation of nitrogenous compounds of the bacterial biomass. Under microoxic conditions no effect of oxygen on the yield of the ciliate was observed but the amount of acetate and lactate was 25% lower. Cells of T. compressum with Methanobacterium formicicum as deliberately introduced endosymbiont did not form significantly different fermentation products, however, instead of formate methane was detected as product. The yield of the ciliate was not affected. It is concluded that methanogenic bacteria deliberately introduced into the cytoplasm of T. compressum as endosymbionts are pure commensalists. 相似文献

Catharanthus roseus plants produce many pharmaceutically important indole alkaloids, of which the bisindole alkaloids vinblastine and vincristine
are antineoplastic medicines and the monoindole alkaloids ajmalicine and serpentine are antihypertension drugs. C. roseus cell cultures have been studied for producing these medicines or precursors catharanthine and vindoline for almost four decades
but so far without a commercially successful process due to biological and technological limitations. The research thus focused
on the one hand on engineering the bioreactor process on the other engineering the cell factory itself. This review mainly
summarizes the progress made on biochemical engineering aspects of C. roseus cell cultures in bioreactors in the past decades and metabolic engineering of indole alkaloid production in recent years.
The paper also attempts to highlight new strategies and technologies to improve alkaloid production and bioreactor performance.
Perspectives of metabolic engineering to create new cell lines for large-scale production of indole alkaloids in bioreactors
and effective combination of these up- and down-stream processing are presented. 相似文献

Summary Seed- and clonally-propagated plants of Big Sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata var.tridentata) were grown under atmospheric carbon dioxide regimes of 270, 350 and 650 μl l−1 and fed toMelanoplus differentialis andM. sanguinipes grasshoppers. Total shrub biomass significantly increased as carbon dioxide levels increased, as did the weight and area
of individual leaves. Plants grown from seed collected in a single population exhibited a 3–5 fold variation in the concentration
of leaf volatile mono- and sesquiterpenes, guaianolide sesquiterpene lactones, coumarins and flavones within each CO2 treatment. The concentration of leaf allelochemicals did not differ significantly among CO2 treatments for these seed-propagated plants. Further, when genotypic variation was controlled by vegetative propagation,
allelochemical concentrations also did not differ among carbon dioxide treatments. On the other hand, overall leaf nitrogen
concentration declined significantly with elevated CO2. Carbon accumulation was seen to dilute leaf nitrogen as the balance of leaf carbon versus nitrogen progressively increased
as CO2 growth concentration increased. Grasshopper feeding was highest on sagebrush leaves grown under 270 and 650 μl l−1 CO2, but varied widely within treatments. Leaf nitrogen concentration was an important positive factor in grasshopper relative
growth but had no overall effect on consumption. Potential compensatory consumption by these generalist grasshoppers was apparently
limited by the sagebrush allelochemicals. Insects with a greater ability to feed on chemically defended host plants under
carbon dioxide enrichment may ultimately consume leaves with a lower nitrogen concentration but the same concentration of
allelochemicals. Compensatory feeding may potentially increase the amount of dietary allelochemicals ingested for each unit
of nitrogen consumed. 相似文献

Summary In order to examine the inhibitory effect of heterotrophic nutrition on the regreening of etiolatedEuglena gracilis, strain Z, the organisms were cultivated in the light in the presence of glucose or carbon dioxide as carbon source. After about 120 hours of illumination the chlorophyll and carbohydrate contents per cell of the photoheterotrophically cultivatedEuglena differs significantly from that of autotrophically grown cells. Mainly in so far as the addition of glucose diminishes the number and size of the chloroplasts per cell and the amount of the chlorophyll-protein-complex CP II in the thylakoids, whereas the amount of the chlorophyll-protein-complex CP I is not influenced. 相似文献

Ajmalicine production by cell cultures of Catharanthus roseus: from shake flask to bioreactor 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Hens J. G. ten Hoopen Walter M. van Gulik Jurriaan E. Schlatmann Paulo R. H. Moreno J. L. Vinke J. J. Heijnen Robert Verpoorte 《Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture》1994,38(2-3):85-91
The productivity of a cell culture for the production of a secondary metabolite is defined by three factors: specific growth rate, specific product formation rate, and biomass concentration during production. The effect of scaling-up from shake flask to bioreactor on growth and production and the effect of increasing the biomass concentration were investigated for the production of ajmalicine by Catharanthus roseus cell suspensions. Growth of biomass was not affected by the type of culture vessel. Growth, carbohydrate storage, glucose and oxygen consumption, and the carbon dioxide production could be predicted rather well by a structured model with the internal phosphate and the external glucose concentration as the controlling factors. The production of ajmalicine on production medium in a shake flask was not reproduced in a bioreactor. The production could be restored by creating a gas regime in the bioreactor comparable to that in a shake flask. Increasing the biomass concentration both in a shake flask and in a stirred fermenter decreased the ajmalicine production rate. This effect could be removed partly by controlling the oxygen concentration in the more dense culture at 85% air saturation. 相似文献

Cell suspension cultures of Catharanthus roseus G. Don, Glycine max (L.) Merr. and Nicotiana tabacum L. were incubated with [14C]acetate, [14C]oleic acid and [14C]linoleic acid at five different temperatures ranging from 15 to 35° C. When the incubation temperature was increased, [14C]acetate was incorporated preferentially into [14C]palmitate, with a concomitant drop in [14C]oleate formation. Between 15 and 20° C, [14C]oleic acid accumulated in C. roseus cells. In all cultures, optimum desaturation of [14C]oleic acid to [14C]linoleic acid occurred between 20 and 25° C, and in G. max this was also the optimal range for desaturation of [14C]linoleic acid to [14C]linolenic acid. Elongation of [14C]palmitic acid was inhibited when cultures grown at 15° C for 25 h were subsequently incubated with [14C]acetate at 25° C. [14C]oleic acid accumulated in G. max and C. roseus cultures grown at 35° C for 25 h and subsequently incubated at 25° C. Desaturation of [14C]oleic acid increased up to 25° C, but then decreased or leveled off depending on the cell line and on the temperature prior to incubation. 相似文献
