Two negative cis-regulatory regions involved in fruit-specific promoter activity from watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris S.)
A 1.8 kb 5'-flanking region of the large subunit of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase, isolated from watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris S.), has fruit-specific promoter activity in transgenic tomato plants. Two negative regulatory regions, from -986 to -959 and from -472 to -424, were identified in this promoter region by fine deletion analyses. Removal of both regions led to constitutive expression in...
متن کاملOrganization of Ripening and Ethylene Regulatory Regions in a Fruit-Specific Promoter from Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum).
Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) fruit ripening is initiated by an increase in ethylene hormone concentration. E8 gene transcription is fruit-specific and is activated at the onset of ripening and in unripe fruit treated with exogenous ethylene. To understand how E8 gene transcription is controlled during ripening, we analyzed the effect of deletions of flanking DNA sequences on E8 gene express...
متن کاملPurification and Properties of Glyoxysomal Cuprozinc Superoxide Dismutase from Watermelon Cotyledons (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad).
A glyoxysomal copper,zinc-containing superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1) was purified to homogeneity, for the first time, from watermelon cotyledons (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad.). The stepwise purification procedure consisted of acetone precipitation, batch anion-exchange chromatography, anion-exchange Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography and gel-filtration column chromatography. Pure copper,zinc-s...
متن کاملQuantitative estimation of plant metabolites in the hot aqueous seed extract of watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad.)
Plants are integral part of nature. Nature is a unique source of structures of high phytochemical diversity, many of them possessing interesting biological activities and medicinal properties. The use of traditional medicines is increasing and getting popularity throughout the developed and developing world. The medicinal properties of plants are due to the presence of active principles such as...
متن کاملAnalysis of Mineral Elements, Proximate and Nutritive value in Citrullus vulgaris Schrad. (Watermelon) seed extracts
Dietary elements, commonly known as dietary minerals are chemical elements required by living organisms other than the elements present in the common organic molecules. Dietary fibre and minerals are important for healthy functioning of the human body. The mineral nutrition is an important aspect and its pivotal role in human life provides healthy growth. The present study was undertaken to ana...
