چکیده

Several years ago we reported that formaldehyde could be isolated when dimethylaminoethanol, dimethylglycine, sarcosine, or methanol was incubated with a whole liver homogenate (1). Dimethylaminoethanol differed from the other substrates in that it required both the supernatant and sediment fractions of the homogenate to effect this biochemical oxidation. We have now prepared methyl-labeled dimethylaminoethanol and examined its metabolism in the whole liver homogenate preparation.

Isolation and characterization of Lactobacillus species from intestinal contents of beluga (Huso huso) and Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus)

Lactic acid bacteria are characterized as gram-positive, usually non-motile, non-sporulating bacteria that produce lactic acid as a major or sole product of their fermentative metabolism. In this study, the presence of lactobacilli were investigated in the intestines of beluga ( Huso huso) and Persian sturgeon ( Acipenser persicus ), inhabiting Caspian sea. The obtained data showed that various...

Isolation and characterization of Phi class glutathione transferase partial gene from Iranian barley

Glutathione transferases are multifunctional proteins involved in several diverse intracellular events such as primary and secondary metabolisms, signaling and stress metabolism. These enzymes have been subdivided into eight classes in plants. The Phi class, being plant specific, is the most represented. In the present study, based on the sequences available at GenBank, different primers were d...

Isolation of Monoterpene Synthase Gene (NsTPS2) and Evaluation of Terpenoid Compounds in Black Cumin Medicinal Plant (Nigella sativa L.)

Black cumin (Nigella sativa) is a medicinal plant of the Ranunculacea family which raised attention due to its pharmaceutical properties. Medical significance of N. sativa mainly attributed to its oxygenated monoterpenes which are biosynthesized via the methyl erythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway located in plastids. In this study, the essential oil components of leaves, flowers, and developmenta...

Sphingomyelin metabolism in rat liver after chronic dietary replacement of choline by N-aminodeanol.

Sphingomyelin (SM) is a structural element of cell membranes and lipoproteins, and participates in signal transduction. To determine whether a choline analog (N-amino-N,N-dimethylaminoethanol, N-aminodeanol, NADe) can be substituted for choline in the SM of liver, rats (male, Sprague-Dawley-derived) were fed a diet that was low in choline and methionine, and contained 35.5 mmol of NADe/kg. Afte...
