The study of Zn2+ and Cu2+ effects on myrosinase activity and sulforaphane production in Lepidium draba [PDF]
مجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2016 Myrosinase is a β-thioglucoside glucohydrolase enzyme which catalyzses the separation of glucose from glucosinolates and produces an unstable intermediate, aglycone.

Distribution of Myrosinase in Rapeseed Tissues [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1991 Immunocytochemical studies on Brassica napus (rapeseed) tissues using a monoclonal antibody against myrosinase (thioglucoside glucohydrolase) showed that the enzyme was only present in a small number of cells. In the developing embryo, scattered myrosinase-containing cells were present in both cotyledons and axis.

Extended darkness induces internal turnover of glucosinolates in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Prolonged darkness leads to carbohydrate starvation, and as a consequence plants degrade proteins and lipids to oxidize amino acids and fatty acids as alternative substrates for mitochondrial ATP production.

Immunological characterization of rapeseed myrosinase [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1990 A purified 75‐kDa myrosinase and a crude rapeseed myrosinase fraction were used as antigens to produce mouse anti‐myrosinase monoclonal antibodies. The 75‐kDa myrosinase was also used to produce a polyclonal rabbit antiserum. The antiserum and one monoclonal antibody reacted with three distinct rapeseed polypeptides of 75, 70 and 65 kDa (M75, M70 and ...

A Simple Method for On-Gel Detection of Myrosinase Activity
Molecules, 2018 Myrosinase is an enzyme present in many functional foods and spices, particularly in Cruciferous vegetables. It hydrolyses glucosinolates which thereafter rearrange into bioactive volatile constituents (isothiocyanates, nitriles).
