cDNA for S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase from Catharanthus roseus.
The majority of the Met synthesized in plants is utilized for methylations performed with S-adenosyl-L-Met. These reactions play a major role in the modification of a large variety of acceptor molecules, such as lipids, polysaccharides, nucleic acids, proteins, and secondary plant products (reviewed by Giovanelli, 1987). The hydrolysis of SAH to adenosine and L-homocysteine by SAH hydrolase is ...
متن کاملThe seco-iridoid pathway from Catharanthus roseus
The (seco)iridoids and their derivatives, the monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs), form two large families of plant-derived bioactive compounds with a wide spectrum of high-value pharmacological and insect-repellent activities. Vinblastine and vincristine, MIAs used as anticancer drugs, are produced by Catharanthus roseus in extremely low levels, leading to high market prices and poor availab...
متن کاملMutation breeding in Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don: An Overview
Induced mutagenesis is best approach for creation of genetic variability but most of interest is paid towards crop plants with only a few exceptions. But even widely used medicinal plants could receive a little attention in this direction. Catharanthus roseus is an important plant medicinal plant yielding antihypertensive alkaloid ajmalcine and anticancerous alkaloid vincristine and vinblastine...
متن کاملVindogentianine, a hypoglycemic alkaloid from Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don (Apocynaceae).
Vindogentianine, a new indole alkaloid together with six known alkaloids, vindoline, vindolidine, vindolicine, vindolinine, perivine and serpentine were isolated from leaf extract (DA) of Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods; NMR, MS, UV and IR. Vindogentianine is a dimer containing a vindoline moiety coupled to a gentianine moiety. After 24...
متن کاملAntidiabetic and antioxidant properties of alkaloids from Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don.
Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don is a herbal plant traditionally used by local populations in India, South Africa, China and Malaysia to treat diabetes. The present study reports the in vitro antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of the major alkaloids isolated from Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don leaves extract. Four alkaloids--vindoline I, vindolidine II, vindolicine III and vindolinine IV--...
