چکیده
A new chromogen that absorbs maximally at 329nm was frequently found in the liver oils of the freshwater fish Bagarius bagarius and Wallago attu. It was shown to be a diester of 3-hydroxyretinol. 3-Hydroxyretinol was found to be a metabolite of lutein during the biosynthesis of 3-dehydroretinol in a freshwater fish. A new method for the chemical synthesis of 3-hydroxyretinol from methyl 3-dehydroretinoate is described. The possible pathway for the conversion of lutein into 3-dehydroretinol in vivo is discussed.

متن کاملIsolation of high-quality RNA from a wide range of woody plants
Isolation of high-quality RNA is one of the most crucial methods in molecular biology. RNA extraction from woody plants has been problematic due to the presence of rigid and woody tissues, large amounts of polysaccharides, polyphenols and other secondary metabolites. Here we present a suitable protocol for RNA isolation from a wide range of woody plants that includes eight gymnosperms and four ...
متن کاملNanocrystalline SiO2–HClO4: A novel, efficient and green catalyst for the three-component synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives
Nanocrystalline SiO2–HClO4, as a newly reported catalyst, has been used as an efficient and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives. The procedure can be successfully applied to the efficient synthesis of mono substituted pyrimidine derivatives, using triethyl orthoformate, ammonium acetate, methyl ketone derivatives. In practice, this method is a combination of a satisfac...
