The hup gene fragment of cosmid pHU52 was integrated into the genome of chickpea-Rhizobium Rcd301 via site-specific homologous recombination. Two small fragments of genomic DNA of strain Rcd301 itself were provided to flank cloned hup genes to facilitate the integration. The hup insert DNA of cosmid pHU52 was Isolated as an Intact 30.2 kb fragment using EcoRI, and cloned on partially restricted cosmid clone pSPSm3, which carries a DNA fragment of strain Rcd301 imparting streptomycin resistance. One of the recombinant cosmid clones, pBSL 12 thus obtained was conjugally transferred to the strain Rcd301. The integration of hup gene fragment into the genomic DNA through site-specific homologous recombination, was ensured by introducing an incompatible plasmid, pPH1 JI. The integration was confirmed by Southern hybridization. The integrated hup genes were found to express ex plants in two such constructs BSL 12–1 and BSL 12–3. 相似文献

Cholic and deoxycholic acid amides 10-17 have been synthesised from (1R,2R)-1-phenyl-2-amino-1,3-propanediol 2, (1S,2S)-1-phenyl-2-amino-1,3-propanediol 4, (1R,2R)-1-para-nitrophenyl-2-amino-1,3-propanediol 3, (1S,2S)-1-para-nitrophenyl-2-amino-1,3-propanediol 5. Amide 12 derived from N-succinimidyl ester 9 of deoxycholic acid and (1R,2R)-1-phenyl-2-amino-1,3-propanediol 2, found to be active against Cryptococcus neoformans and the amide 17 obtained from N-succinimidyl ester 9 of deoxycholic acid and (1S,2S)-1-para-nitrophenyl-2-amino-1,3-propanediol 5, is found to be potent against various gram-positive bacteria. 相似文献

Menthol is a highly valued monoterpene produced by Japanese mint (Mentha arvensis) as a natural product with wide applications in cosmetics, confectionery, flavours, beverages and therapeutics. Selection
of high menthol yielding genotypes is therefore the ultimate objective of all genetic improvement programmes inMentha arvensis. A positive correlation was observed in the present study between menthol content in oils of evaluated genotypes and the
level of tolerance to externally supplied menthol of explants of these genotypes in culture medium. The easy use of this relationship
as a selectable biochemical marker opens the practical applicability of largescalein vitro screening of the germplasm, clones and breeders' material for selection of elite genotypes. 相似文献

A simple, precise and rapid high-performance thin-layer chromatographic method has been developed for the estimation of phyllanthin (1) and hypophyllanthin (2), the important lignans of Phyllanthus species, especially Phyllanthus amarus. Separation of 1 and 2 was carried out on silica gel 60 F254 layers eluted with hexane:acetone:ethyl acetate (74:12:8), and the analytes were visualised through colour development with vanillin in concentrated sulphuric acid and ethanol. Scanning and quantification of spots was performed at 580 nm. Recoveries of 1 and 2 were 98.7 and 97.3%, respectively. The method was validated and the peak purities and limits of detection and quantification were determined. 相似文献

Gallic acid, one of the most abundant plant phenolic acids, has been modified to cathepsin D protease inhibitors. The strategy of modification was proposed basing on some previously reported structure and activity relationship (SAR) studies. The synthesized naphthophenone fatty acid amide derivatives have been evaluated for in vitro cathepsin D inhibition activity. Two of them have shown significant inhibition activity with IC(50) values of 0.06 and 0.14 microM, respectively, as compared against pepstatin (0.0023 microM), the most potent inhibitor known so far. The study revealed that such attempts on gallic acid based pharmacophores might result in potent inhibitors of cathepsin D. 相似文献

Six heat shock tolerant mutants of Rhizobium meliloti Rmd201 were isolated through transposon Tn5 mutagenesis. The symbiotic assays of these mutants with alfalfa plants, showed four of these mutants to be affected in nitrogenase effectivity also. These four mutants could be classified into two separate complementation groups hssA and hssC through R-prime mediated merodiploid constructions. The hssC mutant Rmd1040 also showed poor interaction with phages indicating surface alterations. The results indicated possible involvement of these loci in symbiosis as well as heat shock response. 相似文献

A protocol for induction and establishment of Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated hairy root cultures of Picrorhiza kurroa was developed through optimization of the explant type and the most suitable bacterial strain. The infection of leaf explants
with the LBA9402 strain resulted in the emergence of hairy roots at 66.7% relative transformation frequency. Nine independent,
opine and TL-positive hairy root clones were studied for their growth and specific glycoside (i.e., kutkoside and picroside I) productivities
at different growth phases. Biosynthetic potentials for the commercially desirable active constituents have been expressed
by all the tested hairy root clones, although distinct inter-clonal variations could be noted in terms of their quantity.
The yield potentials of the 14-P clone, both in terms of biomass as well as individual glycoside contents (i.e., kutkoside
and picroside I), superseded that of all other hairy root clones along with the non-transformed, in vitro-grown control roots
of P. kurroa. The present communication reports the first successful establishment, maintenance, growth and selection of superior hairy
root clone of Picrorhiza kurroa with desired phyto-molecule production potential, which can serve as an effective substitute to its roots and thereby prevent
the indiscriminate up-rooting and exploitation of this commercially important, endangered medicinal plant species.

Summary Tuberculosis is a leading killer disease of the world with increasing mortality due to HIV-infected individuals becoming highly prone to this infection. An attempt has been made in the present work to identify novel plant-derived compounds active against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) through construction of a target based bio-screen to facilitate rapid screening of anti-TB plant compounds. To achieve this, construction of a genetically modified model system was attempted in fast growing, non-pathogenic, Escherichia coli in which experimental testing is relatively easier and rapid as compared to M. tuberculosis, which is pathogenic and slow growing in nature. The exquisitely high sensitivity of M. tuberculosis to isoniazid (INH) has been attributed to lesions in oxyR, a gene that positively regulates the expression of a set of hydrogen peroxide-inducible genes in E. coli and S. typhimurium. Moreover in the mechanism of emergence of INH resistance in M. tuberculosis, oxidative stress response has been implicated. In this study, mutants of E. coli defective in oxidative stress response function were derived and used to screen plant compounds, which might interfere with the oxidative stress response in MTB. Since MTB is inherently known to be oxyR defective and thus being highly sensitive to INH, mutants defective in oxidative stress response were isolated to construct a model system in E. coli, which is otherwise INH resistant, having functional oxyR. These mutants showed simultaneous sensitivity to oxidative stress-causing agents like hydrogen peroxide and cumene hydroperoxide. To further define the mutational lesions, complementation studies were carried out through mobilization of cloned wild type genes involved in the oxidative stress response and in this way a biological screen was constructed to identify plant compounds/essential oils/extracts/oil components which induce oxidative stress. The positives were finally tested for activity against M. tuberculosis strain H37Rv using the radiometric BACTEC 460 TB system. Interestingly, the bioactives were found to be active against the pathogen with marked potency, as the reduction in δGI values for the identified bioactives against M. tuberculosis were significant. The study demonstrates application of a specific target-based genetic model system in E. coli as a rapid high throughput screen in identifying anti-mycobacterials from plants. 相似文献

The needles of Taxus wallichiana gave a taxoid 1-hydroxy- 2-deacetoxy-5-decinnamoyl-taxinine j, whose structure has been established by spectroscopic data and confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The taxoid possesses significant cytotoxic and immunomodulatory activity. 相似文献
