Isolation and bacterial expression of a sesquiterpene synthase cDNA clone from peppermint (Mentha x piperita, L.) that produces the aphid alarm pheromone (E)-b-farnesene (insect pheromoneyplant-insect chemical communicationysynomone)
E)-b-Farnesene is a sesquiterpene semiochemical that is used extensively by both plants and insects for communication. This acyclic olefin is found in the essential oil of peppermint (Mentha x piperita) and can be synthesized from farnesyl diphosphate by a cell-free extract of peppermint secretory gland cells. A cDNA from peppermint encoding (E)-b-farnesene synthase was cloned by random sequenc...
متن کاملRegulation of tobacco acetolactate synthase gene expression.
Acetolactate synthase (ALS) catalyzes the first common step in the biosynthesis of isoleucine, leucine, and valine. The previous cloning of two tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) ALS genes (SurA and SurB) has allowed transcript accumulation from these genes to be monitored. mRNA blot analysis of ALS transcripts showed a message size of 2.2 kb. Quantitation of the levels of ALS messages in tobacco orga...

background: the wnt/β- the wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is involved in many developmental processes in both fetal and adult life; its abnormalities can lead to disorders including several types of cancers and malfunction of specific cells and tissues in both animals and humans. its role in reproductive processes has been proven. objective: this study was designed to evaluate the expression o...
متن کاملSite-Directed Mutagenesis, Expression and Biological Activity of E. coli 5-Enolpyruvylshikimate 3-Phosphate Synthase Gene
Site-directed mutagenesis (SDM) as a powerful technique was used to change two important and conserved amino acids in 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3- phosphate synthase (EPSPS) gene of E. coli. The mutations changed glycine 96 to alanine and alanine 183 to threonine. These two amino acids are very important for intraction of the wide spectrum herbicide, glyphosate, to EPSP synthase enzymes. By design...
