Time course and spatial distribution of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and peroxidase activity in wounded potato tuber tissue.

چکیده

The time course and spatial distribution of wound-induced activities of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and peroxidase were determined to establish correlations between molecular and cellular aspects of the wound-induced pattern of cell differentiation in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tissue. A high correlation between peroxidase activity and suberization was observed. Peroxidase activity increased for several days after wounding. Peroxidase content of suberizing cells was more than 10 times higher than that of the immediately adjacent dividing cells. Suberizing and dividing cells contained different isoperoxidases. Neither time course nor spatial distribution of the wound-induced activity of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase was directly correlated with the wound-induced pattern of cell differentiation.

Beta-1,3-glucooligosaccharide induced activation of four enzymes responsible for N-p-coumaroyloctopamine biosynthesis in potato (Solanum tuberosum cv.) tuber tissue.

Potato tuber disks, when treated with laminarin, a beta-1,3-glucooligosaccharide from Laminaria digitata, accumulate a hydroxycinnamoyl amide compound, N-p-coumaroyloctopamine (p-CO). The biosynthesis of p-CO was investigated by feeding experiments, in order to show that the precursors of N-p-coumaroyl and octopamine moieties of p-CO are L-phenylalanine and L-tyrosine, respectively. The treatme...

Phenol metabolism, phytoalexins, and respiration in potato tuber tissue treated with Fatty Acid.

Potato (solanum tuberosum L. cv Katahdin) tuber discs treated with arachidonic acid become necrotic and accumulate sesquiterpenoid phytoalexins. The arachidonic acid also causes increases in both phenylalanine ammonia lyase and lignin, but no change in total alcohol-soluble phenols. Linoleic acid does not alter any of these parameters. A high concentration of nonanoic acid promotes both necrosi...

Wounding induces the first enzyme of the shikimate pathway in Solanaceae.

The first enzyme of the shikimate pathway, 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase (EC 4.1.2.15), is induced by wounding potato or tomato tissue. The increase in enzyme activity is associated with elevated amounts of the enzyme as determined by immunoblots. The specific wound-induced protein synthesis is preceded by an increase in the mRNA encoding this enzyme. The induced mRNA of ...

Postharvest Assessment of Lignifying Enzymes Activity, Flower Stem Lignification and Bending Disorder of Gerbera Cut Flower

Scape bending disorder is the most important factor affecting postharvest loss of gerbera cut flowers. One of the ultimate reasons for gerbera stem bending is lignin, with deformation structural functions and defensive mechanisms. This postharvest experiment was conducted to evaluate the role of phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) and peroxidase (POD) enzymes activity in stem bending of two gerbe...
