An oxalic acid oxidase in the leaves of Bougainvillea spectabilis.
Oxalic acid undergoes enzymic transformation along diverse channels in cell-free preparations from micro-organisms and plants. In Collyvia veltepes oxalate undergoes a simple decarboxylation (Shimazono, 1955; Shimazono & Hayaishi, 1957), whereas in other micro-organisms the decarboxylation is preceded by the formation of the CoA derivative of oxalate (Jakoby, Ohmura & Hayaishi, 1956; Kimura, Ka...
متن کاملEffect of Bougainvillea spectabilis Leaves on Serum Lipids in Albino Rats Fed with High Fat Diet
Dyslipidemia is major problem among population those have sedentary life style as well as in diabetics. Bougainvillea spectabilis is most commonly found in India as an ornamental plant and has got anti-diabetic action due to presence of one insulin mimicking agent D-pinitol (3-O-methyl-chiroinositol). The present investigation was undertaken to evaluate the effect of alcoholic extract of leaves...
متن کاملSynthesis and Cloning of cDNA Encoding an Antiviral Protein from the Leaves of Bougainvillea spectabilis Willd. (Nyctaginaceae)
Total RNA was extracted from the mature leaves of Bougainvillea spectabilis Willd. and messenger RNA (mRNA) was separated out. Using mRNA as template, complementary DNA (cDNA) was synthesized and amplified by Reverse Transcription coupled PCR using gene specific primer. A product of 750 base pair plus was selected based on the size of Bougainvillea antiviral protein (BAP). After elution the pro...
متن کاملAntifertility Effect of Bougainvillea spectabilis or Paper Flower
Bougainvillea spectabilis (Family: Nyctaginaceae), commonly referred to as Great Bougainvillea or Paper Flower, is one of the traditional medicinal plants with potential antifertility activity. The aqueous extract and decoction of this plant have been used as fertility control among the tribal people in many countries. Furthermore, it has been shown to possess anticancer, antidiabetic, antihepa...
متن کاملSynthesis of oxalic Acid by enzymes from lettuce leaves.
A rapid purification of lactate dehydrogenase and glycolate oxidase from lettuce (Lactuca sativa) leaves is described. The kinetics of both enzymes are reported in relation to their possible roles in the production of oxalate. Lettuce lactate dehydrogenase behaves like mammalian dehydrogenase, catalyzing the dismutation of glyoxylate to glycolate and oxalate. A model is proposed in which glycol...
