GA3 mediated enhanced transcriptional rate and mRNA stability of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase 1 (NtHMGR1) in Nicotiana tabacum L. [PDF]
Our present study evaluated the underlying molecular-mechanism(s) associated with the observed enhanced transcript levels and concomitant functional activity of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase 1 (NtHMGR1), a rate-limiting enzyme of ...

Regulation of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase in rat leukocytes
Methods were developed for the assay of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (NADPH) activity in microsomes from rat leukocytes. The activity in freshly isolated leukocytes is low compared to rat liver but can be assayed reliably. The patterns of response of leukocyte reductase in the assay to variation in substrate concentration, protein concentration,

Integrated GWAS and transcriptomics in a Canadian waterhemp biotype reveal mesotrione resistance is polygenic and metabolically driven. Significant SNPs and 187 herbicide‐responsive genes point to enhanced redox homeostasis, glutathione‐linked detoxification, lipid/secondary metabolism, and oxidative stress responses. Resistance arises from coordinated,

High altitudes are challenging for the animals that inhabit these environments. The Xizang plateau frog (Nanorana parkeri) survives in high‐altitude environments through a synergistic strategy of metabolic remodeling and protein expression adjustment to optimize energy efficiency and enhance cellular protection.

ABSTRACT Microalgae are a highly diverse group of unicellular organisms that grow in a wide range of aquatic environments and are widely used as dietary supplements for both human and animal applications. Microalgae are rich in lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and other valuable bioactive components such as pigments, antioxidants and vitamins.

Indirect Assessment of Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA Reductase (NADPH) Activity in Liver Tissue
Abstract We describe an indirect method for assessing variation in 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (NADPH) activity in liver tissue. 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA and mevalonate concentrations in the tissue homogenate are estimated in terms of absorbances and the ratio between the two is taken as an index of activity of ...

Abstract Efforts are underway to increase the efficiency and precision of selection hop (Humulus lupulus L.) breeding using genomics. Little is known, however, about the genetic control of important traits like α‐and β‐acids contents, oil content, and cone morphological characteristics, all of which play an important role in determining the utility and
