Cyanogenic Glucosides and Derivatives in Almond and Sweet Cherry Flower Buds from Dormancy to Flowering
Almond and sweet cherry are two economically important species of the Prunus genus. They both produce the cyanogenic glucosides prunasin and amygdalin. As part of a two-component defense system, prunasin and amygdalin release toxic hydrogen cyanide upon cell disruption. In this study, we investigated the potential role within prunasin and amygdalin and some of its derivatives in endodormancy re...
متن کاملFacile cleavage of complex oligosaccharides from glycopeptides by almond emulsin peptide: N-glycosidase.
Almond emulsin peptide:N-glycosidase has been partially purified by using a new 3H-labeled 5-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl-octaglycopeptide substrate derived from ovalbumin. The enzyme hydrolyzes the beta-aspartylglycosylamine linkage of both high mannose and biantennary complex glycopeptides, as shown by the isolation of the corresponding carbohydrate-free peptides containing aspartic ac...
متن کاملShort and not so sweet
The pace of life has changed. And that doesn’t just extend to fast food and media ‘sound bites’; it seems we now expect our science to be delivered in instant, bite-sized pieces, too. I recently wrote a mini-review for a well-respected journal. This journal maintains a high standard for such articles and has them peer-reviewed before accepting them. The reviewers’ comments were mostly very help...
متن کاملNot so sweet malignant transformation.
A critical requirement for the success of a multicellular organism is the ability to exquisitely regulate the growth of its component cells. Tumors, also called neoplasias, occur when that regulation is disturbed; the term neoplasia simply means “new growth.” The pathology community classifies neoplasias as benign or malignant based on morphologic features of the cells in the tumor, the presenc...
متن کاملAmyloglucosidase from Rhizopus mold and β-glucosidase from sweet almond catalysed syntheses of riboflavinyl glycosides
Riboflavinyl glycosides were synthesized enzymatically using amyloglucosidase isolated from Rhizopus mold and βglucosidase from sweet almond to produce more water soluble riboflavinyl derivatives. The reaction conditions were optimized in terms of incubation period, pH, buffer, enzyme and substrate concentrations. With D-glucose, D-galactose, Dmannose, D-ribose, sucrose, maltose and lactose, bo...
