Allyl isothiocyanate depletes glutathione and upregulates expression of glutathione S-transferases in Arabidopsis thaliana
Allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) is a phytochemical associated with plant defense in plants from the Brassicaceae family. AITC has long been recognized as a countermeasure against external threats, but recent reports suggest that AITC is also involved in the onset of defense-related mechanisms such as the regulation of stomatal aperture. However, the underlying cellular modes of action in plants rem...
متن کاملIdentification of Arabidopsis mutants with altered glucosinolate profiles based on isothiocyanate bioactivity
Glucosinolates are a diverse class of nitrogenand sulfur-containing secondary metabolites. They are rapidly hydrolyzed on tissue disruption to a number of biologically active compounds that are increasingly attracting interest as anticarcinogenic phytochemicals and crop protectants. Several glucosinolate-derived isothiocyanates are potent chemopreventive agents that favorably modulate carcinoge...
متن کاملGlucosinolate and amino acid biosynthesis in Arabidopsis.
Enzymes that catalyze the condensation of acetyl coenzyme A and 2-oxo acids are likely to be important in two distinct metabolic pathways in Arabidopsis. These are the synthesis of isopropylmalate, an intermediate of Leu biosynthesis in primary metabolism, and the synthesis of methylthioalkylmalates, intermediates of Met elongation in the synthesis of aliphatic glucosinolates (GSLs), in seconda...
متن کاملAllyl isothiocyanate affects the cell cycle of Arabidopsis thaliana
Isothiocyanates (ITCs) are degradation products of glucosinolates present in members of the Brassicaceae family acting as herbivore repellents and antimicrobial compounds. Recent results indicate that allyl ITC (AITC) has a role in defense responses such as glutathione depletion, ROS generation and stomatal closure. In this study we show that exposure to non-lethal concentrations of AITC causes...
متن کاملAllyl Isothiocyanate Inhibits Actin-Dependent Intracellular Transport in Arabidopsis thaliana
Volatile allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) derives from the biodegradation of the glucosinolate sinigrin and has been associated with growth inhibition in several plants, including the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. However, the underlying cellular mechanisms of this feature remain scarcely investigated in plants. In this study, we present evidence of an AITC-induced inhibition of actin-dependent ...
