Screening of Lovastatin Production by Filamentous Fungi
In the present study, 110 fungal strains of Persian Type Culture Collection (PTCC) including some selected strains isolated in various screening projects were tested for their potentiality to produce lovastatin, a competitive inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-CoA reduc-tase), the rate-limiting enzyme of cholesterol biosynthesis. The fungal strains were cultivated in a t...
متن کاملThe Effects of Fruit Maturity and 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) Treatment on α-farnesene Metabolism in Scald Resistant and Susceptible Cultivars of Apple Fruit
Background: It was found that, climatic conditions and fruit ripeness are important factor for the occurrence and intensity of superficial scald. 1-MCP is an inhibitor of ethylene action in plants and inhibits many ripening related processes along with the production of ethylene and volatiles. Objective: Apples are often held for several months at low temperature either in air (RA) or in con...
متن کاملEfficacy of apple cider vinegar and verjuice in the treatment of hyperlipidemia compared with lovastatin
Background: Hyperlipidemia and especially hypercholesterolemia is a known risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. There are several types of drugs with different side effects, to lower blood lipid levels. Statins are the most commonly used drugs for treating high LDL cholesterol level. Apple cider vinegar and verjuice as old folk remedies claimed to have been beneficial in treat...

متن کاملProject title : Regulation of Ethylene - induced
Objectives: (1) Obtain complete genomic clones plus promoter regions of apple peel genes encoding HMGR isozymes HMG2 and HMG3 and determine whether expression of these genes is regulated by ethylene; (2) Demonstrate function of the gene product and obtain a genomic clone of the ethyleneresponsive promoter of the putative apple α-Farnesene Synthase gene; (3) Determine correlation among ethylene-...
