Abstract Horseradish ( Armoracia rusticana ) provides human organisms with various effective treatments for improving health, and it constitutes a salubrious root used culinary purposes. This outcome derives from the chemical composition polyphenols content of horseradish. study's objective was to determine individual polyphenols, total phenolic (TPC) flavonoid (TFC) contents, colour parameters...

two peroxidases (ec. 1.11.1.7), pod i and pod ii were purified from the roots of cultivatedraphanus sativus l. var. cicil by one step ion-exchange chromatography after fractionation by acetone. the molecular weight of these enzymes were 43000 and 41000 daltons and rz 1.2 and 2.0 for pod i and pod ii, respectively. both enzymes consisted of a single polypeptide chain on sds-page. the maximum act...

Horseradish cultivars are highly heterozygous clones and maintained through asexual propagation, using root cuttings. For many years, horseradish was believed to be sterile therefore impossible improve by traditional sexual crosses. Prior the 20th century, only way select plant cuttings from most desirable plants. Moreover, development of new improved has also been somewhat limited lack viable ...

We have assigned the biosynthetic processing steps of cathepsin D to intracellular compartments which are involved in its transport to lysosomes in HepG2 cells. Cathepsin D was synthesized as a 51-kDa proenzyme. After formation of 51-55-kDa intermediates due to processing of N-linked oligosaccharides, procathepsin D was proteolytically processed to an intermediate 44-kDa and the mature 31-kDa e...
