Fatty acid breakdown in developing embryos of Brassica napus L.
Developing Brassica napus embryos are primarily concerned with the accumulation of storage products, namely oil, starch and protein. The presence of fatty acid catabolic pathways in the background of this biosynthetic activity was investigated. Enzymes involved in the process of lipid mobilization, such as malate synthase and isocitrate lyase, are detectable towards the late stages of embryo de...
متن کاملAssessment of Acropora palmata in the Mesoamerican Reef System
The once-dominant shallow reef-building coral Acropora palmata has suffered drastic geographical declines in the wider Caribbean from a disease epidemic that began in the late 1970s. At present there is a lack of quantitative data to determine whether this species is recovering over large spatial scales. Here, we use quantitative surveys conducted in 107 shallow-water reef sites between 2010 an...
متن کاملStorage oil breakdown during embryo development of Brassica napus (L.).
In this study it is shown that at least 10% of the major storage product of developing embryos of Brassica napus (L.), triacylglycerol, is lost during the desiccation phase of seed development. The metabolism of this lipid was studied by measurements of the fate of label from [1-(14)C]decanoate supplied to isolated embryos, and by measurements of the activities of enzymes of fatty acid cataboli...
متن کاملChromophores of allophycocyanin and R-phycocyanin.
The biliprotein allophycocyanin was purified from Phormidium luridum, Anabaena variabilis and Plectonema boryanum. R-phycocyanin was purified from Rhodymenia palmata. The chromophores were cleaved from the denatured protein by methanol hydrolysis. They were purified and crystallized as the dimethyl esters. Chromatographic and absorption-spectral (visible-ultraviolet and infrared) comparisons wi...
متن کاملCarotene biosynthesis in fungi.
Studies on Neurospora crassa and mutants of Phycomyces blakesleeanus have led to a reappraisal of a number of important aspects of carotene biosynthesis. Results obtained from structural investigations, from inhibitor studies and from the use of labelled substrates with carotenogenic extracts of fungal mutants are discussed in the contexts of the stereochemistry, isomerization and dehydrogenati...
