Alteration of Extracellular Enzymes in Pinto Bean Leaves upon Exposure to Air Pollutants, Ozone and Sulfur Dioxide.
Diamine oxidase and peroxidase, associated with the wall in pinto bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var Pinto) leaves, can be washed out by vacuum infiltration and assayed without grinding the leaf. The diamine oxidase activity is inhibited in vivo by exposure of the plants to ozone (dose of 0.6 microliters per liter x hour), whereas the peroxidase activity associated with the wall space is stimulate...
متن کاملPnm-18: Maternal Exposure to Ozone, Nirogen Dioxide, Sulfur Dioxide and Spontaneous Abortion
Background: Adverse pregnancy outcomes (low birth weight, prematurity and intrauterine growth retardation) are associated with exposure to urban air pollution. Experimental data have also shown that such exposure elicits adverse reproductive outcomes. We examined association between spontaneous abortion of the first trimester of pregnancy and ambient concentrations of Ozone, Nirogen Dioxide and...
متن کاملAtmospheric protein chemistry influenced by anthropogenic air pollutants: nitration and oligomerization upon exposure to ozone and nitrogen dioxide.
The allergenic potential of airborne proteins may be enhanced via post-translational modification induced by air pollutants like ozone (O3) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). The molecular mechanisms and kinetics of the chemical modifications that enhance the allergenicity of proteins, however, are still not fully understood. Here, protein tyrosine nitration and oligomerization upon simultaneous expos...
متن کاملhealth endpoint attributed to sulfur dioxide air pollutants
conclusions according to the results of this study, this increase could be due to higher fuel consumption, usage of gasoline in vehicles, oil industry, and steel and heavy industries in ahwaz. the risk of mortality and morbidity were detected at the current concentrations of air pollutants. results according to the findings, the concentration of sulfur dioxide in ahvaz had an annual average of ...
متن کاملInhibition of the k-stimulated ATPase of the plasmalemma of pinto bean leaves by ozone.
Three varieties of Phaseolus vulgaris which differ in their sensitivity to ozone were examined for changes in some physiological and structural plasma membrane characteristics. Plasma membrane vesicles were prepared from control and ozone-treated (0.2 to 0.5 microliters per liter ozone for 5 hours) leaf tissue, and the (K(+) + Mg(2+))-ATPase activity determined and compared. No major changes we...
