Inhibition by Cytokinin of the Accumulation of Betacyanin in Suspension Cultures of Phytolacca americana
The accumulation o f betacyanin was reduced by the addition o f various cytokinins to sus pension cultures o f Phytolacca americana. The decrease in the accumulation o f betacyanin was overcome by exogenously supplied tyrosine which is a precursor o f betacyanin. Benzylaminopurine (BAP) decreased the level o f free tyrosine in the cells. Feeding experiments using labeled tyrosine revealed that...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of polyphenol oxidase cDNAs of Phytolacca americana.
Two cDNA clones encoding polyphenol oxidases were isolated from a cDNA library constructed from a log-phase suspension culture of Phytolacca 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 کاملAnti-nociceptive Activity of Aqueous-methanolic Extract of Phytolacca americana Growing in Iran
Abstract Anti-nociceptive activity of aerial parts of Phytolacca americana were investigated, using the hot plate method in mice. Results of the present study showed that the aqueous methanolic extract of aerial parts of P. americana produced a statistically significant increase in pain threshold after 30 min, in comparison with the control, at adose of 190 mg kg-1 (P 0.05). The anti-nociceptiv...
متن کاملInhibition of platelet aggregation by protease inhibitors. Possible involvement of proteases in platelet aggregation.
The possible participation of proteases in human platelet aggregation was explored using various protease inhibitors and substrates. Protease inhibitors used included naturally occurring inhibitors of serine proteases and synthetic inhibitors that modify the active site of protease. Substrates used were synthetic substrates for the trypsin type as well as for the chymotrypsin type of protease. ...
متن کاملLebetin peptides: potent platelet aggregation inhibitors.
Lebetins from Macrovipera lebetina snake venom constitute a new class of inhibitors of platelet aggregation. There are two groups of peptides: lebetin 1 (L1; 11- to 13-mer) and lebetin 2 (L2; 37- to 38-mer). The short lebetins are identical to the N-terminal segments of the longer ones. They inhibit platelet aggregation induced by various agonists (e.g. thrombin, PAF-acether or collagen). The s...
