Cadmium-sensitive, cad1 mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana are phytochelatin deficient.
An allelic series of cad1, cadmium-sensitive mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana, was isolated. These mutants were sensitive to cadmium to different extents and were deficient in their ability to form cadmium-peptide complexes as detected by gel-filtration chromatography. Each mutant was deficient in its ability to accumulate phytochelatins (PCs) as detected by high-performance liquid chromatograph...

متن کاملProtective efficacy of Streptococcus thermophilus against acute cadmium toxicity in mice
Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic heavy metal, wide occupational and an environmental pollutant, affecting human health. Probiotics especially lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have the capacity to bind, remove and to decrease tissue cadmium levels. The objective was to evaluate the potency of Cd binding capacity, antioxidative properties of probiotic bacteria against cadmium in vitro and its probable de...

Cd 2+ a heavy metal accumulates in the body and has a very long biological half-life (10–30 years) in humans. Environmental cadmium contamination occurs through industries related to batteries, coatings, electroplating, alloys, plastics, glasses, ceramics, enamels and artists’ colors, zinc, copper, lead, and iron ores treatment, coal and oil burning power plants, weathering of parent rocks etc....
