Inheritance inRicinus communis, L. Part I

Synthase Gene from Ricinus communis L

1 L-myo-Inositol-1-phosphate synthase (EC 5.5.1.4, MIPS), an evolutionarily conserved enzyme protein, catalyzes the conversion of D-glucose-6-phosphate into 1 L-myo-inositol-1-phosphate (MIP), which is the fi rst and rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of all inositol-containing compounds (Ray Chaudhuri et al., 1997; Abid et al., 2009). MIPS is found in diverse organisms, both eukaryotic and...

Antinociceptive activity of Ricinus communis L. leaves.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the antinociceptive activity of the methanol extract of Ricinus communis leaves (MRCL). METHODS Antinociceptive activity was evaluated using acetic acid induced writhing test, formalin induced paw licking and tail immersion method in mice at doses of 100, 125 and 150 mg/kg bw. RESULTS The results indicated that MRCL exhibited considerable antinociceptive activity again...

Studies with Myrtus communis L.: Anticancer properties

Maybe due to this belief, it is used during cemetery visits in some regions. Although it is a well-known plant in cosmetics, and there is a lot of studies about its different medical properties, anticancer studies performe...
