Structure and function of seed storage proteins in faba bean (Vicia faba L.)
The protein subunit is the most important basic unit of protein, and its study can unravel the structure and function of seed storage proteins in faba bean. In this study, we identified six specific protein subunits in Faba bean (cv. Qinghai 13) combining liquid chromatography (LC), liquid chromatography-electronic spray ionization mass (LC-ESI-MS/MS) and bio-information technology. The results...
متن کاملGermination and viability coefficients of Faba Bean (Vicia faba) seed under different storage conditions
Extended Abstract Introduction: Pulses are among the best sources of plant protein and important components of crop rotation, which in recent years, have been considered one of the major options for plant research. Seed storage is one of the important traits in legume breeding. Storage temperature, seed moisture content, and storage duration are the most important factors affecting seed qualit...
متن کاملProtein mobilization and proteolytic enzyme activities during seed germination of broad bean (Vicia faba L.).
The protein mobilization from attached and detached seeds of Vicia faba L. cv. Eresen 87 (Fabaceae) was investigated. While the total soluble protein content decreased, the free amino acid content increased during the 7 days germination period. Among the three proteolytic enzymes, only endopeptidase activity was found to be affected by the removal of the embryonic axis. Leucine aminopeptidase a...
متن کاملThe cDNA derived primary structure of two distinct legumin A subunit precursors from field bean (Vicia faba L.).
Legumin-like (US) storage globulins of legume seeds are oligomeric proteins consisting of six subunits (1). Each subunit is composed of two disulfide-linked polypeptide chains (2), both are primarily synthesized as one propolypeptide precursor (3). Two main, predominating legumin subunit groups (i.e. group A or I, and group B or IT) have been described (2, 3, 4, 5); here we present the first fu...
متن کاملRhizobium alters inducible defenses in broad bean, Vicia faba
Conversion of inorganic nitrogen by mutualistic nitrogen-fixing bacteria is essential for plant growth and reproduction, as well as the development of chemical and mechanical defenses. It is unclear, however, how these bacteria alter cooccurring symbioses at higher trophic levels; e.g., extrafloral nectary (EFN) induction, in response to herbivory, to attract defensive mutualists. We hypothesiz...
