Herbivore induction of the glucosinolate-myrosinase defense system: major trends, biochemical bases and ecological significance [PDF]
, 2009 Like many other plant defense compounds, glucosinolates are present constitutively in plant tissues, but are also induced to higher levels by herbivore attack.

Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1969 In order to obtain fungous myrosinase, Aspergillus sydowi IFO 4284 was cultured on a medium containing mustard seed extract for 2 weeks. Myrosinase in the broth was purified about 150 fold by precipitation with ammonium sulfate and chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and DEAE-Sephadex.

Differential Expression of Myrosinase Gene Families [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1993 In mature seeds of Brassica napus three major and three minor myrosinase isoenzymes were identified earlier. These myrosinases are known to be encoded by at least two different families of myrosinase genes, denoted MA and MB. In the work described in this paper the presence of different myrosinase isoenzymes in embryos, seedlings, and vegetative mature

Magnetic field-assisted blanching enhances sulforaphane synthesis in broccoli florets, revealed by UPLC-ESI-QTRAP-MS/MS [PDF]
Food Chemistry: XSulforaphane (SF) is generated from glucoraphanin hydrolysis catalyzed by endogenous myrosinase in Brassicaceae vegetables such as broccoli, with blanching critical to maximize SF formation.

Studies on Myrosinase. Part II
Journal of the agricultural chemical society of Japan, 1959 (1)動物(ほらがい肝臓)ミロスルファターゼはシニグリン, tetramethylsinigrin, tetraacetylsinigrinの何れにも作用してその硫酸エステル結合を切る事,之に対し植物(白からし)ミロシナーゼは,シニグリンには作用してその硫酸エステル結合及びチオグルコシッド結合を切るが, tetramethylsinigrin, tetraacetylsinigrinには全く作用しない事を知った. (2)阻害剤に対する性質も,植物ミロシナーゼのミロスルファターゼ作用と,動物ミロスルファターゼとでは,可成り異る事を明かにした.

Molecular Docking of Potential Inhibitors of Broccoli Myrosinase [PDF]
Molecules, 2018 Glucosinolates are secondary metabolites occurring in Brassicaceae plants whose hydrolysis may yield isothiocyanates, widely recognized as health-promoting compounds. Myrosinase catalyzes this conversion.

Optimisation of Recombinant Myrosinase Production in Pichia pastoris [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Myrosinase is a plant defence enzyme catalysing the hydrolysis of glucosinolates, a group of plant secondary metabolites, to a range of volatile compounds. One of the products, isothiocyanates, proved to have neuroprotective and chemo-preventive properties, making myrosinase a pharmaceutically interesting enzyme.
