The pathway for the aerobic catabolism of 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene (phloroglucinol) by a new strain of Penicillium was investigated using both in vivo and in vitro cell-free systems. The fungal strain was isolated by enrichment on phloroglucinol and identified as P. simplicissimum (Oud) Thom. It grew optimally at pH 5.5 and 27°C with 119 mM (1.5%w/v) of phloroglucinol in a basal mineral salts medium. Vapours of the crystalline substrate placed in a Petri-plate lid supported the growth of the fungal colonies on the agar surface. Mycelia grown on phloroglucinol accumulated 1,2,4-trihydroxybenzene and resorcinol in the medium. Washed, resting mycelia grown on phloroglucinol, when resuspended in a buffer utilized oxygen in the presence of catechol, resorcinol, pyrogallol and phloroglucinol. A NADPH-dependent reductase in the cell-free extract reduced phloroglucinol to dihydrophloroglucinol. This electron donor could not be replaced by NADH. Resorcinol hydroxylase, phloroglucinol reductase, catechol-1,2-oxygenase, and catechol-2,3-oxygenase were detected in cell-free extracts of mycelia grown on phloroglucinol. The possible steps in the degradation of phloroglucinol are discussed. 相似文献

Biochemical studies on anaerobic phenylme-thylether cleavage by homoacetogenic bacteria have been hampered so far by the complexity of the reaction chain involving methyl transfer to acetyl-CoA synthase and subsequent methyl group carbonylation to acetyl-CoA. Strain TMBS 4 differs from other demethylating homoacetogenic bacteria in using sulfide as a methyl acceptor, thereby forming methanethiol and dimethylsulfide. Growing and resting cells of strain TMBS 4 used alternatitively CO2 as a precursor of the methyl acceptor CO for homoacetogenic acetate formation. Demethylation was inhibited by propyl iodide and reactivated by light, indicating involvement of a corrinoid-dependent methyltransferase. Strain TMBS 4 contained ca. 750 nmol g dry mass-1 of a corrinoid tentatively identified as 5-hydroxybenzimidazolyl cobamide. A photometric assay for measuring the demethylation activity in cell extracts was developed based on the formation of a yellow complex of Ti3+ with 5-hydroxyvanillate produced from syringate by demethylation. In cell extracts, the methyltransfer reaction from methoxylated aromatic compounds to sulfide or methanethiol depended on reductive activation by Ti3+. ATP and Mg2+ together greatly stimulated this reductive activation without being necessary for the demethylation reaction itself. The specific activity of the transmethylating enzyme system increased proportionally with protein concentration up to 3 mg ml-1 reaching a constant level of 20 nmol min-1 mg-1 at protein concentrations 10 mg ml-1. The specific rate of activation increased in a non-linear manner with protein concentration. Strain TMBS 4 degraded gallate, the product of sequential demethylations, to 3 acetate through the phloroglucinol pathway as found earlier with Pelobacter acidigallici.Abbreviations BV

Kelp gametophytes were previously observed in nature living endophytically in red algal cell walls. Here we examine the interactions of two kelp species and six red algae in culture. Gametophytes of Nereocystis luetkeana (Mertens) Postels et Ruprecht became endophytic in the cell walls of Griffithsia pacifica Kylin and Antithamnion defectum Kylin, and grew epiphytically in high abundance on G. japonica Okamura and Aglaothamnion oosumiense Itono. Alaria esculenta (Linnaeus) Greville from the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia became endophytic in Aglaothamnion oosumiense, Antithamnion defectum, Callithamnion sp., G. japonica, G. pacifica, and Pleonosporium abysicola Gardner, all from the Pacific Ocean. Some cultures were treated with phloroglucinol before infection to thicken the cell walls. The endophytic gametophytes were smaller and grew more slowly than gametophytes epiphytic on the same host. N. luetkeana failed to become endophytic in some of the potential hosts, and this may reflect host specificity, or culture artifacts. This work improves our understanding of the process of infection of red algae by kelp gametophytes, and broadens our knowledge of host specificity in endophytic symbioses.Communicated by K.

Why are grape/fresh wine anthocyanins so simple and why is it that red wine color lasts so long? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Vitis vinifera red berries are characterized by anthocyanins whose chemical structures are among the simplest encountered in higher plants. On the contrary, many plants, including orchids, petunias, red cabbage, elderberries, potatoes for instance, have developed very complicated anthocyanins featuring side-chains at the available positions of the aglycone skeleton. Such pigments were shown to possess bio-physico-chemical properties not to be seen with the grape common anthocyanins. Among beverages (water, tea, beer, wine, coffee, juices, milk), red wine is the only one whose organoleptic properties improve with time and this is called ageing. The grape/fresh red wine pigments, after a few months, disappear from the wine giving birth to new pigments resulting from the wine spontaneous chemistry allowing it to remain red for many years. What are the wine pigments and why are they so stable is the purpose of this mini-review. The structural simplicity of grape anthocyanins and the long lasting colour of red wine is another French paradox; we call it French paradox II. 相似文献

Terpenylated phenols possess interesting biological activities. These properties vary mainly according to the type of terpene associated and the degree of oxidation of the molecule. The search for new active molecules for application in different areas of knowledge includes the structural modification of these through ecological methodologies, such as biotransformation. The aims of this study were the biotransformation of geranylated- and acetylated-phloroglucinol by the fungus Gibberella fujikuroi and the evaluation of the antifungal activity of the derivatives. Five major derivatives were identified after biotransformation, highlighting the formation of specific monoacetylated products. In vitro antifungal activity assays against the phytopathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea indicated that deacetylated derivatives possess higher activity compared to the precursor molecule. In other biotransformation reactions, a relationship between the release of the alkyl chain from the aromatic ring with a decrease of the antifungal activity, was observed. The in vivo tests in infected tomato plants with B. cinerea confirmed the antifungal activity of the derivatives observed in in vitro experiments. 相似文献

From the leaves of Mallotus pallidus were isolated five phloroglucinol derivatives, namely pallidusol, dehydropallidusol, pallidol, mallopallidol and homomallopallidol. Their structures were determined by means of spectroscopic methods of analysis. 相似文献

A series of acylated phloroglucinols and triketones was synthesized and tested for activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis (VRE) and multi-drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB). A tetra-methylated triketone with a C12 side chain was the most active compound (MIC of around 1.0 μg/ml against MRSA) and was shown to stimulate oxygen consumption by resting cell suspensions, suggesting that the primary target was the cytoplasmic membrane. 相似文献

A complete method to regenerate adventitious shoots and to produce field-ready trees from three commercial cultivars of sweet
cherry (Prunus avium L.) is described. The effects of explant types, pre-treatments, basal media, and phloroglucinol on cultivars Bing, Sweetheart,
and Lapins were investigated. Callus developed on four explant types: apical shoot tips isolated from orchard trees; and punctured
shoot tips, stem sections, and shoot bases of in vitro shoot cultures. Callus formed on Bing (5%), Sweetheart (8%), and Lapins
(20%) shoot tips from orchard trees after 4 months on Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) at half-strength with 3 μM benzylaminopurine
(BA). In vitro-derived explants formed callus after 3 months on Woody Plant Medium with 3 μM BA (W3B): punctured shoot tips
(Sweetheart and Lapins 67%), stem sections (Sweetheart 31%, Lapins 27%), and shoot bases (Sweetheart 10%, Lapins 17%). Pre-treatment
of shoot cultures on MS with 3 μM BA and 1 mM phloroglucinol increased callus formation three-fold on shoot base explants.
Callus was separated from parental explants and maintained on MS with 3 μM BA. Shooting was induced by transferring callus
to W3B. At 2 weeks, shoot development approached 100%. By 4 weeks, 7–17 shoots had formed on each explant. Callus was maintained
for 1.5 years with no decrease in shoot production. Shoots were grafted onto Mazzard (P. avium) rootstocks with 54% (Sweetheart), 57% (Lapins), and 21% (Bing) success after 5 weeks. 相似文献
