Direct Electrochemistry of Polyphenol Oxidase
The electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is presented. Cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (PPO). A redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. The influence of various parameters such as pH,...
متن کاملCloning and Characterization of Polyphenol Oxidase cDNAs of Phyfolacca americana'
Two cDNA clones encoding polyphenol oxidases were isolated from a cDNA library constructed from a log-phase suspension culture of Phyfolacca americana (pokeweed) producing betalains. The clones exhibit 93 and 86% sequence identity at the nucleotide and deduced amino acid levels, respectively. Both clones contain two copper-binding domains characterized by histidine-rich regions, which are found...
متن کاملPartially Purification and Characterization of Polyphenol Oxidase of Quince
In fruits and vegetables, browning occurs due to the oxidation of polyphenols. Oxidative browning is catalysed by polyphenol oxidase (PPO; monophenol, dihydroxyphenyl alanine:oxygen oxidoreductase; EC.1.14.18.1). When fresh products are damaged oxidative browning occurs, and this is an economic problem for producers and consumers. Polyphenoloxidase, which is a copper-containing enzyme, catalyse...

متن کاملMolecular cloning and characterization of apricot fruit polyphenol oxidase.
A reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction experiment was done to synthesize a homologous polyphenol oxidase (PPO) probe from apricot (Prunus armeniaca var Bergeron) fruit. This probe was further used to isolate a full-length PPO cDNA, PA-PPO (accession no. AF020786), from an immature-green fruit cDNA library. PA-PPO is 2070 bp long and contains a single open reading frame encoding a PPO...
