Accumulation of the bioactive peptides, novokinin, LPYPR and rubiscolin, in seeds of genetically modified soybean.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Novokinin (RPLKPW), LPYPR, and rubiscolin (YPLDLF) are bioactive peptides with respective hypotensive, hypocholesterolemic, and memory-enhancing activities. We generated transgenic soybean lines that expressed modified forms of the alpha' subunit of seed storage protein beta-conglycinin containing tandem repeats of these bioactive peptides. The modified alpha' subunits constituted up to 0.2% of extracted proteins from the transgenic seeds.

Comparative Profiling of microRNA Expression in Soybean Seeds from Genetically Modified Plants and their Near-Isogenic Parental Lines
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been widely demonstrated to play fundamental roles in gene regulation in most eukaryotes. To date, there has been no study describing the miRNA composition in genetically modified organisms (GMOs). In this study, small RNAs from dry seeds of two GM soybean lines and their parental cultivars were investigated using deep sequencing technology and bioinformatic approaches. ...
متن کاملA quantitative competitor PCR assay to detect genetically modified roundup-ready soybeans in commercially sold foods in Iran
Due to ever-increasing global diffusion and related socio-economic implications, the detectionof genetically modified organisms (GMOs) is very important. In this study, we design a plasmidcontaining two genes in mutated form as construct-specific (cp4 epsps) and event-specific(pd35S). It is applied for quantitative-competitor (QC) PCR as a simple and reliable method forthe detection of GM food....
متن کاملEffect of Different Levels of Cottonseed Meal Bioactive Peptides on Production Efficiency and Serum Antioxidant Activity of Broiler Chickens
Cottonseed meal was hydrolyzed using five types of enzymes: alkalase, chymotrypsin, pepsin, trypsin, and pancreatin. The experiment was carried out using 240 male broilers of Ross 308 strain in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 5 replications from 1 to 35 days of age and during the starter (1-15 days) and grower (16-35 days) phases. The experimental diets were the control die...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Peptides Derived from Milk: A Review
Milk proteins provide a natural source of bioactive peptides with potential health benefits and applications in the food industry. The release of these peptides from milk proteins is achieved either by hydrolysis using digestive proteases or by lactic acid bacteria fermentation. Peptides, particularly those derived from milk proteins, can exert a wide range of nutritional, functional and biolog...
متن کاملDiscrimination of transgenic soybean seeds by terahertz spectroscopy
Discrimination of genetically modified organisms is increasingly demanded by legislation and consumers worldwide. The feasibility of a non-destructive discrimination of glyphosate-resistant and conventional soybean seeds and their hybrid descendants was examined by terahertz time-domain spectroscopy system combined with chemometrics. Principal component analysis (PCA), least squares-support vec...
