Functional characterization of a UDP-glucose:flavonoid 3-O-glucosyltransferase from the seed coat of black soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.)

The seed coats of black soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) accumulate red (cyanidin-), blue (delphinidin-), purple (petunidin-), and orange (pelargonidin-based) anthocyanins almost exclusively as 3-O-glucosides; however, the responsible enzyme has not been identified. In this study, the full-length cDNA which encodes the enzyme that catalyzes the final step in anthocyanin biosynthesis, namely UDP-glucose:flavonoid 3-O-glucosyltransferase (UGT78K1), was isolated from the seed coat tissue of black soybean using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). Of the 28 flavonoid substrates tested, the purified recombinant protein glucosylated only anthocyanidins and flavonols, and demonstrated strict 3-OH regiospecificity. Galactose could also be transferred with relatively low activity to the 3-position of cyanidin or delphinidin in vitro. These findings are consistent with previous reports of mainly 3-O-glucosylated and minor amounts of 3-O-galactosylated anthocyanins in the seed coat of black soybean. The recombinant enzyme exhibited pronounced substrate inhibition by cyanidin at 100 μM acceptor concentration. Transfer of UGT78K1 into the Arabidopsis T-DNA mutant (ugt78d2) deficient in anthocyanidin and flavonol 3-O-glucosyltransferase activity, restored the accumulation of anthocyanins and flavonols, suggesting the in vivo function of the enzyme as a flavonoid 3-O-glucosyltransferase. Genomic and phylogenetic analyses suggest the existence of three additional soybean sequences with high similarity to UGT78K1. RT-PCR confirmed the co-expression of one of these genes (Glyma08g07130) with UGT78K1 in the seed coat of black soybean, suggesting possible functional redundancies in anthocyanin biosynthesis in this tissue.     

Identification of a characteristic antioxidant,anthrasesamone F,in black sesame seeds and its accumulation at different seed developmental stages

Assay-guided fractionation of the methanol extract from black seeds of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) led to the isolation of an active compound that had a 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity. This antioxidant was confirmed to be anthrasesamone F, an anthraquinone derivative previously isolated from different black sesame seeds and biogenetically related to other anthrasesamones in sesame roots. The radical scavenging assay showed that anthrasesamone F had more potent activity than Trolox. The content of anthrasesamone F in different parts and at different developmental stages of black sesame seeds was investigated to clarify the accumulation pattern of this antioxidant in the black seeds. Anthrasesamone F was localized in the seed coat of black seeds and accumulated after the seed coat color changed to black. The content of anthrasesamone F increased gradually with seed maturation and drastically on air-drying, the final stage in sesame cultivation.     

Preparation and evaluation of antioxidant peptides from ethanol-soluble proteins hydrolysate of Sphyrna lewini muscle

To get high yield of ethanol-soluble proteins (EP) and the antioxidant peptides from Sphyrna lewini muscle, orthogonal experiments (L(9)(3)(4)) were applied to optimize the best extraction conditions and enzyme hydrolysis conditions. The yield of EP reached 5.903±0.053% under the optimum conditions of ethanol concentration 90%, solvent to material ratio 20:1, extraction temperature of 40°C and extraction time of 80min. The antioxidant SEPH (EP hydrolysate of S. lewini muscle) was prepared by using papain under the optimum conditions of enzymolysis time 2h, total enzyme dose 1.2%, enzymolysis temperature 50°C and pH 6, and its DPPH radical scavenging activity reached 21.76±0.42% at the concentration of 10mg/ml. Two peptides (F42-3 and F42-5) were isolated from SEPH by using ultrafiltration, anion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration chromatography and RP-HPLC. The structures of F42-3 and F42-5 were identified as Trp-Asp-Arg and Pro-Tyr-Phe-Asn-Lys with molecular weights of 475.50Da and 667.77Da, respectively. F42-3 and F42-5 exhibited good scavenging activity on hydroxyl radical (EC(50) 0.15mg/ml and 0.24mg/ml), ABTS radical (EC(50) 0.34mg/ml and 0.12mg/ml), and superoxide anion radical (EC(50) 0.09mg/ml and 0.11mg/ml), but moderate DPPH radical (EC(50) 3.63mg/ml and 4.11mg/ml). F42-3 and F42-5 were also effectively against lipid peroxidation in the model system and peroxyl free radical scavenging in β-carotene linoleic acid assay. Their high activities were due to the smaller size and the presence of antioxidative amino acids within the peptide sequences.     

Anthocyanins from soybean seed coat inhibit the expression of TNF-alpha-induced genes associated with ischemia/reperfusion in endothelial cell by NF-kappaB-dependent pathway and reduce rat myocardial damages incurred by ischemia and reperfusion in vivo

We examined the inhibition of the expression of some inflammatory genes associated with ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by anthocyanins isolated from black soybean seed coat in tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-treated bovine aortic endothelial cells. In addition, its potential use on I/R-injury was investigated using rats subjected to 30-min occlusion of left descending coronary artery followed by 24-h reperfusion. Western blot analysis and luciferase activity assay showed that anthocyanins inhibited TNF-alpha-induced vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, intracellular adhesion molecule-1, and cyclooxygenase-2 levels, which is through NF-kappaB-dependent pathway. Further, anthocyanins protected myocardiac injury from I/R in rats. It is suggested that anthocyanins from black soybean seed coat can be used as a useful drug to modulate cardiovascular disorder.

Seed Polyphenolic Profile,Antioxidative Activity,and Fatty Acids Composition of Wild and Cultivated Carthamus Species

Total flavonoid content (TFC) and cyanidin‐3‐glucoside (Cyd‐3‐glu) of seed and seed coat extract of 16 genotypes from five species of Carthamus were studied, and their major polyphenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of the seed coat extracts were determined using HPLC analysis and DPPH assay, respectively. Additionally, fatty acids composition of the seed oil was analyzed by GC. In general, TFC and Cyd‐3‐glu content of seed coat extracts were higher than those of seed extracts. A novel breeding line with black seed coat (named A82) depicted lower TFC (3.79 mg QUE/g DW) but higher Cyd‐3‐glu (24.64 mg/g DW) compared to the white and other seed‐pigmented genotypes. DPPH radical scavenging activity showed a strong association with Cyd‐3‐glu content (r = 0.84), but no correlation with TFC (r = ?0.32). HPLC analysis of seed coat extracts revealed that four compounds were dominant constituents including rutin (7.23 – 117.95 mg/100 g DW), apigenin (4.37 – 64.88 mg/100 g DW), quercetin (3.09 – 14.10 mg/100 g DW), and ferulic acid (4.49 – 30.41 mg/100 g DW). Interestingly, the genotype A82 with an appropriate polyunsaturated/saturated fatty acids index (5.46%) and a moderate linoleic fatty acid content (64.70%) had higher nutritional and pharmaceutical value than all the other genotypes.     

Accumulation and within-seed distribution of iron in common bean and soybean

The influence of times of applying FeEDDHA on seed yield and Fe accumulation by four common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and two soybean (Glycine max L.) genotypes grown on a calcareous soil was studied under greenhouse conditions. The soybean genotypes, unlike the common bean genotypes, developed Fe-deficiency chlorosis and responded to application of the chelate. A preplant application of FeEDDHA was more efficacious than a flowering application in increasing seed yield of soybean. In contrast, the flowering application was much more effective than the preplant application for increasing seed Fe concentration [Fe] of both species. Percentage of seed Fe located in the seed coat of the common bean genotypes ranged from approximately 5 to 40% and was little affected by FeEDDHA. This within-seed distribution of Fe was correlated with methanol-extractable seed-coat pigments absorbing at 500 nm, presumably anthocyanins, but not with condensed tannins (proanthocyanidins). The soybean genotypes did not accumulate anthocyanins or tannins in the seed coat. Seed of Fe-deficient soybean plants without FeEDDHA had appreciably lower [Fe] and had a lower percentage of seed Fe in the seed coat than treated plants. Within-seed distribution of Fe should be considered in plant breeding because of concerns about both human nutrition and early seedling growth.

Functional Characterization of Dihydroflavonol-4-Reductase in Anthocyanin Biosynthesis of Purple Sweet Potato Underlies the Direct Evidence of Anthocyanins Function against Abiotic Stresses

Dihydroflavonol-4-reductase (DFR) is a key enzyme in the catalysis of the stereospecific reduction of dihydroflavonols to leucoanthocyanidins in anthocyanin biosynthesis. In the purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.) cv. Ayamurasaki, expression of the IbDFR gene was strongly associated with anthocyanin accumulation in leaves, stems and roots. Overexpression of the IbDFR in Arabidopsis tt3 mutants fully complemented the pigmentation phenotype of the seed coat, cotyledon and hypocotyl. Downregulation of IbDFR expression in transgenic sweet potato (DFRi) using an RNAi approach dramatically reduced anthocyanin accumulation in young leaves, stems and storage roots. In contrast, the increase of flavonols quercetin-3-O-hexose-hexoside and quercetin-3-O-glucoside in the leaves and roots of DFRi plants is significant. Therefore, the metabolic pathway channeled greater flavonol influx in the DFRi plants when their anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin accumulation were decreased. These plants also displayed reduced antioxidant capacity compared to the wild type. After 24 h of cold treatment and 2 h recovery, the wild-type plants were almost fully restored to the initial phenotype compared to the slower recovery of DFRi plants, in which the levels of electrolyte leakage and hydrogen peroxide accumulation were dramatically increased. These results provide direct evidence of anthocyanins function in the protection against oxidative stress in the sweet potato. The molecular characterization of the IbDFR gene in the sweet potato not only confirms its important roles in flavonoid metabolism but also supports the protective function of anthocyanins of enhanced scavenging of reactive oxygen radicals in plants under stressful conditions.
