Flavonol 3-O-Glycosides from Three Algerian Bupleurum Species
Flavonoids distribution in three algerian Bupleureum (Apiaceae) species has been investigated. Quercetin (1), quercetin 3-rutinoside (2) and isorhamnetin 3-rutinoside (3) were found in the endemic species B. plantagineum Desf. Three kaempferol glycosides, kaempferol 3-glucoside (4), kaempferol 3-galactoside (5), kaempferol 3-rutinoside (6) and three quercetin glycosides, quercetin 3-rutinoside ...
متن کاملFeedback inhibition of the general phenylpropanoid and flavonol biosynthetic pathways upon a compromised flavonol-3-O-glycosylation
Flavonols, phenylalanine-derived secondary metabolites, have protective and regulatory functions in plants. In Arabidopsis thaliana, they are consecutively glycosylated at their 3-OH and 7-OH groups. UGT78D1 and UGT78D2 are the major flavonol 3-O-glycosyltransferases in Arabidopsis leaves. The ugt78d1 ugt78d2 double mutant, which was strongly compromised in the initial 3-O-glycosylation, showed...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of cDNAs expressed in the early stages of flavonol-induced pollen germination in petunia.
Petunia (Petunia hybrida) pollen requires flavonols (Fl) to germinate. Adding kaempferol to Fl-deficient pollen causes rapid and synchronous germination and tube outgrowth. We exploited this system to identify genes responsive to Fls and to examine the changes in gene expression that occur during the first 0.5 h of pollen germination. We used a subtracted library and differential screening to i...
متن کاملCommon Identity of UDP-Glucose: Anthocyanidin 3-O-Glucosyltransferase and UDP-Glucose: Flavonol 3-O-Glucosyltransferase in Flowers of Petunia hybrida
In an attempt to distinguish between the UDP-glucose: flavonol 3-O-glucosyltransferase (3G T ) and the UDP-glucose:anthocyanidin 3-O-glucosyltransferase in flower buds o f Petunia hybrida, several properties of these activities were determined. The 3-glucosylation o f anthocyanidin had a pH-activity optimum of 7.2, that o f flavonol pH 9.2 to 9.5. Anthocyanidin 3G T activity was lowered in the ...
متن کاملLeaf traits associated with flavonol glycoside genes in soybean.
In the soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), the gene combination Fg1 Fg3 is responsible for the glycosylation in the biosynthesis of kaempferol triglucoside (K9) in leaves. The presence of K9 is associated with reduction in chlorophyll content, specific leaf mass, photosynthetic rate and stomatal frequency. Blocking the action of Fg1 Fg3 with the magenta flower gene wm prevents formation of K9 and...
