چکیده

The transesterification of D-allose (the C-3 epimer of D-glucose) with vinyl octanoate using Candida antarctica lipase in tetrahydrofuran proceeded with high regioselectivity to produce 6-O-octanoyl-D-allose with nearly complete conversion. The growth-inhibiting activity of 6-O-octanoyl-D-allose on lettuce seedlings was about 6-fold greater than that of D-allose.

Retarding activity of 6-O-acyl-D-alloses against plant growth.

The retarding activity of 6-O-dodecanoyl-D-allose against rice growth was higher than that of the octanoate and the decanoate. The activities of 6-O-dodecanoyl-D-glucose, -D-mannose, and -D-galactose against rice seedlings were examined. 6-O-Dodecanoyl-D-allose exhibited the highest activity, suggesting the importance of the alpha-axial hydroxy group at C-3 of D-allose.

Effects of exogenous ornithine enantiomers on tobacco cells under salinity conditions

Ornithine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, which plays an essential role in the metabolism of plants. Regard to the chirality of the molecule, physiological response of the plant cells to its two enantiomers have not been widely investigated yet. In the present study, suspension-cultured tobacco cells were treated with 1 mM of D- and Lenantiomers of ornithine in normal conditions as well as u...
