Characterisation of the nicotianamine aminotransferase and deoxymugineic acid synthase genes essential to Strategy II iron uptake in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Iron (Fe) uptake in graminaceous plant species occurs via the release and uptake of Fe-chelating compounds known as mugineic acid family phytosiderophores (MAs). In the MAs biosynthetic pathway, nicotianamine aminotransferase (NAAT) and deoxymugineic acid synthase (DMAS) enzymes catalyse the formation of 2'-deoxymugineic acid (DMA) from nicotianamine (NA). Here we describe the identification an...
متن کاملLipoic Acid Synthase (LASY)
OBJECTIVE Lipoic acid synthase (LASY) is the enzyme that is involved in the endogenous synthesis of lipoic acid, a potent mitochondrial antioxidant. The aim of this study was to study the role of LASY in type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied expression of LASY in animal models of type 2 diabetes. We also looked at regulation of LASY in vitro under conditions that exist in di...
متن کاملMolecular Pathways: Fatty Acid Synthase.
Therapies that target tumor metabolism represent a new horizon in anticancer therapies. In particular, cancer cells are dependent on the generation of lipids, which are essential for cell membrane synthesis, modification of proteins, and localization of many oncogenic signal transduction enzymes. Because fatty acids are the building blocks of these important lipids, fatty acid synthase (FASN) e...
متن کاملFIRE (fatty acid synthase insulin-responsive element) and ICE (inverted CCAAT element) regulate fatty acid synthase.
Introduction Fatty acid synthase (FAS) plays a central role in de novo lipogenesis in mammals and birds by catalysing the reaction in the conversion of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA into palmitate. FAS activity is not known to be regulated by allosteric effectors or covalent modifications. However, FAS concentration is exquisitely sensitive to nutritional, hormonal and developmental states [ 1-31....
متن کاملPhytosiderophores revisited: 2′-deoxymugineic acid-mediated iron uptake triggers nitrogen assimilation in rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings
Poaceae plants release phytosiderophores into the rhizosphere in order to chelate iron (Fe), which often exists in insoluble forms especially under high pH conditions. The impact of phytosiderophore treatment at the physiological and molecular levels in vivo remains largely elusive, although the biosynthesis of phytosiderophores and the transport of phytosiderophore-metal complexes have been we...
