Cadmium ions influence on the content of anthocyanins as non-plastid pigments and the activity of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (EC 4.3.1.24) as primary enzyme of their biosynthesis in two lettuce varieties (Lactuca sativa L.) with different anthocyanin content was investigated. The increases in anthocyanin content and enzymatic activity of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase of both lettuce plant variet...

abstract in this study the effect of combination of trichoderma harzianum bi and salicylic acid were studied on root knot nematode (meloidogyne javanica) disease on tomato under green house conditions. the roots of tomato seedlings at six-leaf stage were inoculated with suspensions of fungal antagonist (106 conidia/ ml), 5mm salicylic acid and 2000 second-stage juvenile (j2). combined applicati...

Influence of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum IMV B-7404 strain exometabolites on phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL, EC 4.3.1.24) activity in winter wheat seedlings has been studied. A significant increase of PAL activity at 4-6 hours after treatment of plant roots with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum IMVB-7404 strain exometabolites and in case of leaves infection with Bip...

L-Phenylalanine is one of the essential amino acids that cannot be synthesized in mammals in adequate amounts to meet the requirements for protein synthesis. Fungi and plants are able to synthesize phenylalanine via the shikimic acid pathway. L-Phenylalanine, derived from the shikimic acid pathway, is used directly for protein synthesis in plants or metabolized through the phenylpropanoid pathw...

Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase, L-ar-Aminooxy-/?-phenylpropionic Acid, Aromatic Amino Acids, Shikimic Acid, Fagopyrum esculentum L-a-Aminooxy-/?-phenylpropionic acid (AOPP), a potent competitive inhibitor of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), blocked light-induced phenylpropanoid synthesis in excised buckwheat hypocotyls and produced an up to 40-fold increase in the endogenous phenylalanine concen...

Ethylene enhanced the activity of phenylalanine ammonialyase in carrot (Daucus carota L., var. "Nauty") root tissue. Slight increase in enzyme activity was exhibited by root discs incubated in ethylene-free air. It was probably due to the ethylene formed within the sliced tissue. Addition of ethylene to the air stream increased phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity and the total protein content ...

a completely randomized design (crd) with three replications was conducted at greenhouse of urmia university in 2013 to study the effect of different methyl jasmonate concentrations (0, 0.1 and 0.5 mm) on the activity of enzymes polyphenol oxidase, phenylalanine ammonia lyase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, guaiacol peroxidase and total protein content in basil. activity of the enzymes and tot...

Because of its key role in secondary phenylpropanoid metabolism, Phe ammonia-lyase is one of the most extensively studied plant enzymes. To provide a basis for detailed structure-function studies, the enzyme from parsley (Petroselinum crispum) was crystallized, and the structure was elucidated at 1.7-A resolution. It contains the unusual electrophilic 4-methylidene-imidazole-5-one group, which ...

1. Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (EC 4.3.1.5) was purified to homogeneity from the acetone-dried powders of the mycelial felts of the plant pathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia solani. 2. A useful modification in protamine sulphate treatment to get substantial purification of the enzyme in a single step is described. 3. The purified enzyme shows bisubstrate activity towards L-phenylalanine and L-tyrosin...
