Expression of chitinase in Adenanthera pavonina seedlings.
Chitinases (EC 3.2.1.14) are hydrolytic enzymes found in different organisms. In plants, they have been described in different tissues and organs, including seeds. This study was triggered by the isolation of a 30-kDa thermostable chitinase from Adenanthera pavonina L. seeds. The enzyme was submitted to N-terminal amino acid sequencing, and the analysis revealed a high degree of homology with c...
متن کاملThe oil of Adenanthera pavonina L. seeds and its emulsions.
The oil of Adenanthera pavonina L. seeds was analysed by chromatographic and instrumental means. The oil was found to be rich in neutral lipids (86.2%), and low in polar lipids (13.8%). The neutral lipids consisted mainly of triacylglycerols (64.2%). Unsaturated fatty acids were found as high as 71%, while the percentage of saturated fatty acids was only 29%. GC and GC/MS analyses revealed lino...
متن کاملThe Identification of a Novel Peptide Derived from Lactoferrin Isolated from Camel Milk with Potential Antimicrobial Activity
Background and Objective: Antimicrobial peptides have attracted significant attention in recent decades because of their properties, such as rapid bactericidal effects, having a wide spectrum of activity, and a rare development of drug resistance. The purpose of this study was to examine the antibacterial activity of a peptide derived from the lactoferrin isolated from camel milk against Staphy...
متن کاملIn-vitro alpha amylase inhibitory activity of the leaf extracts of Adenanthera pavonina
BACKGROUND Diabetes has caused a major burden to the health sector in the developing countries and has shown an increasing trend among the urban population. It is estimated that most patients are with type II diabetes which could be easily treated with dietary changes, exercise, and medication. Sri Lanka carries a long history ayurvedic medicine where it uses the plant for treating many disease...
متن کاملEnhanced Antimicrobial Activity of AamAP1-Lysine, a Novel Synthetic Peptide Analog Derived from the Scorpion Venom Peptide AamAP1
There is great interest in the development of antimicrobial peptides as a potentially novel class of antimicrobial agents. Several structural determinants are responsible for the antimicrobial and cytolytic activity of antimicrobial peptides. In our study, a new synthetic peptide analog, AamAP1-Lysine from the naturally occurring scorpion venom antimicrobial peptide AamAP1, was designed by modi...
