Nicotine is a major alkaloid accumulating in the vacuole of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), but the transporters involved in the vacuolar sequestration are not known. We here report that tobacco genes (NtMATE1 and NtMATE2) encoding transporters of the multidrug and toxic compound extrusion (MATE) family are coordinately regulated with structural genes for nicotine biosynthesis in the root, with re...
Maize Suppressor-mutator (Spm) transposable elements have been introduced into tobacco cells and a visual assay for Spm activity has been developed using a bacterial beta-glucuronidase gene. The Spm element is mobile in tobacco and can trans-activate excision of a transposition-defective Spm (dSpm) element either from a different site on the same transforming Ti plasmid or from a second plasmid...
Certain amino acids inhibit growth of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. var. xanthi), tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) carrot (Daucus carota), and soybean (Glycerine max L. co. Mandarin) cell cultures when nitrate or urea are the nitrogen sources but not when ammonia is the nitrogen source. These amino acids also inhibit development of nitrate reductase activity (NADH:nitrate oxidoreductase EC 1.6....
Effects of tobacco smoke and benzo[a]pyrene on human endothelial cell and monocyte stress responses.
Smoking is an important risk factor for atherosclerosis. We compared tobacco smoke filtrate with benzo[a]pyrene (a prominent xenobiotic component of tobacco smoke) for the capacity to induce stress proteins and cause cell death in human monocytes and vascular endothelial cells, two cell types that are involved in the formation of atherosclerotic lesions. Exposure to freshly prepared filtrates o...
Background: Tobacco use is a major cause of preventable death and disease in India. A nationally representative case-control study of smoking in India (2008) revealed that only 2% of smokers had spontaneously quit. This study was undertaken to assess tobacco quit rates among the youth in an urban health center and to determine barriers in quitting tobacco use. Methods: This cross sectional stud...
Polar auxin transport is a crucial process for control and coordination of plant development. Studies of auxin transport through plant tissues and organs showed that auxin is transported by a combination of phloem flow and the active, carrier-mediated cell-to-cell transport. Since plant organs and even tissues are too complex for determination of the kinetics of carrier-mediated auxin uptake an...
Recently, the biosynthesis of an unusual membrane phospholipid, N-acylphosphatidylethanolamine (NAPE), was found to increase in elicitor-treated tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) cells (K.D. Chapman, A. Conyers-Hackson, R.A. Moreau, S. Tripathy [1995] Physiol Plant 95: 120-126). Here we report that before induction of NAPE biosynthesis, N-acylethanolamine (NAE) is released from NAPE in cultured to...
Tobacco use is the greatest preventable cause of cancer in the United States, accounting for almost one third of all cancerrelated deaths and 90% of deaths from lung cancer. Despite widespread knowledge of these risks, tobacco use prevalence rates are 20% in the United States and up to 30% to 50% in the developing world (1, 2). Nicotine, the addictive chemical in tobacco, produces a biological ...
three bacteria from a tobacco industry effluent and one from a sewage sample were isolated on a medium comprising of 1% tobacco powder as sole source of nutrients. bacteria isolated from the industrial waste water were identified as bacillus cereus, b. alvei and b. circulans. while, lactobacillus sp. was isolated from the sewage sample. the bacteria were optimized for various growth conditions ...
transformation of plants using agrabacterium rhizogenes may affect secondary metabolite production as well as morphological changes. in this study, t-dna from ri plasmid in a. rhizogenes carrying pri15834-prt35s-gus was introduced into tobacco leaf segments to initiate development of transformed hairy roots. plant regeneration from transgenic roots used ms medium, and plants regenerated fro...
