Induction of myrosinase gene expression and myrosinase activity in radish hypocotyls by phototropic stimulation

Journal of Plant Physiology, 2003
The role of myrosinase (beta-thioglucoside glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.3.1) in the phototropic response in radish hypocotyls was investigated. Unilateral illumination with blue light abruptly up-regulated the activity of myrosinase, which releases bioactive 4-methylthio-3-butenyl isothiocyanate (MTBI) from inactive 4-methylthio-3-butenyl glucosinolate (MTBG)

Characterization of a new myrosinase in Brassica napus

Plant Molecular Biology, 1995
A full-length cDNA clone defining the new myrosinase gene family MC in Brassica napus was isolated and sequenced. Southern hybridization showed that the MC family probably consists of 3 or 4 genes in B. napus. MC genes are expressed in the developing seed, but not in the vegetative tissues investigated. In situ hybridizations to developing seeds showed

Characterization of a Brassica napus myrosinase pseudogene: myrosinases are members of the BGA family of ?-glycosidases

Plant Molecular Biology, 1993
Myrosinase isoenzymes are known to be encoded by two different families of genes denoted MA and MB. Nucleotide sequence analysis of a Brassica napus genomic clone containing a gene for myrosinase revealed it to be a pseudogene of the MA family. The gene spans more than 5 kb and contains at least 12 exons. The exon sequence of the gene is highly similar

Myrosinase Activity in Soil

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2003
Myrosinase (thioglucoside glucohydrolase; EC 3.2.3.1) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes glucosinolates to D ‐glucose and allelochemicals that have biological potential to suppress weed seed germination in soil.

Characterization of rapeseed myrosinase-binding protein

Planta, 1995
Myrosinase-binding proteins (MBPs) were purified from seeds of Brassica napus L. (oilseed rape). The proteins were characterized with respect to amino-acid composition, peptide sequence and isoelectric points. Gel electrophoresis and Western blotting of protein extracts from mature seeds showed the existence of at least ten proteins reacting with a ...
