Overproduction of superoxide dismutase and catalase confers cassava resistance to Tetranychus cinnabarinus
To explore the role of protective enzymes in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) resistance to mites, transgenic cassava lines overproducing copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (MeCu/ZnSOD) and catalase (MeCAT1) were used to evaluate and molecularly confirm cassava resistance to Tetranychus cinnabarinus. Laboratory evaluation demonstrated that, compared with the control cultivar TMS60444 (wild type...
متن کاملEnhanced reactive oxygen species scavenging by overproduction of superoxide dismutase and catalase delays postharvest physiological deterioration of cassava storage roots.
Postharvest physiological deterioration (PPD) of cassava (Manihot esculenta) storage roots is the result of a rapid oxidative burst, which leads to discoloration of the vascular tissues due to the oxidation of phenolic compounds. In this study, coexpression of the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging enzymes copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (MeCu/ZnSOD) and catalase (MeCAT1) in transgenic c...
متن کاملRoles of Fe superoxide dismutase and catalase in resistance of Campylobacter coli to freeze-thaw stress.
We demonstrated that oxidative stress plays a role in freeze-thaw-induced killing of Campylobacter coli following analysis of mutants deficient in key antioxidant functions. Superoxide anions, but not H(2)O(2), were formed during the freeze-thaw process. However, a failure to detoxify superoxide anions may lead to spontaneous disproportionation of the radicals to H(2)O(2).
متن کاملSuperoxide dismutase and catalase conjugated to polyethylene glycol increases endothelial enzyme activity and oxidant resistance.
Covalent conjugation of superoxide dismutase and catalase with polyethylene glycol (PEG) increases the circulatory half-lives of these enzymes from less than 10 min to 40 h, reduces immunogenicity, and decreases sensitivity to proteolysis. Because PEG has surface active properties and can induce cell fusion, we hypothesized that PEG conjugation could enhance cell binding and association of norm...
متن کاملCatalase and Superoxide Dismutase in Escherichia coli ROLES IN RESISTANCE TO KILLING BY NEUTROPHILS*
We assessed the roles of intrabacterial catalase and superoxide dismutase in the resistance of Escherichia coli to killing by neutrophils. E. coli in which the synthesis of superoxide dismutase and catalase were induced by paraquat 10-fold and 5-fold, respectively, did not resist killing by neutrophils. When bacteria were allowed to recover from the toxicity of paraquat for 1 h on ice and for 3...
