Studies on myrosinases

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Enzymology, 1972
Myrosinases (EC 3.2.3.1) are glucosinolate (thioglucoside) hydrolases primarily occurring in plants of the Cruciferae family. 1. 1.|The separation of three myrosinase isoenzymes in Sinapis alba seed was achieved by DEAE-cellulose chromatography on Whatman DE-52. 2.

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 ...

Myrosinase Activity in Soil Extracts

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1996
AbstractMyrosinase (β‐thioglucoside glucohydrolase; EC 3.2.3.1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucosinolates to form a variety of potential allelochemicals. Although these allelochemicals may exert an influence on soil‐borne organisms, the extracellular preservation of plant‐derived myrosinase in soil has not been determined. Soil samples from a field of

Myrosinase activity of cruciferous vegetables

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1984
AbstractMyrosinase activity in partially purified extracts of 12 cruciferous vegetables and an acetone powder preparation of Sinapis alba L. (white mustard) was determined by the initial rate of glucose formation from glucosinolate hydrolysis using a coupled assay. Of the species studied Raphanus sativus L.

Tissue printing for myrosinase activity in roots of turnip and Japanese radish and horseradish: a technique for localizing myrosinases

Plant Science, 2001
A method for analyzing the tissue distribution of myrosinase activity in Brassicaceous plants was developed. This technique is based on 'tissue printing' to visualize enzyme activity. The freshly-cut surface (transverse direction) of the root of three species, Japanese radish (Raphanus sativus), turnip (Brassica campestris) and Japanese horseradish ...

Studies on myrosinases. II. Purification and characterization of a myrosinase from rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Enzymology, 1973
Abstract Myrosinases (EC 3.2.3.1) are a group of isoenzymes present in Cruciferaes which catalyze the hydrolysis of glucosinolates. The myrosinases from rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) have been purified and the main component isolated and characterized.

Comparison of Myrosinase Activity Assays

1987
Plant thioglucoside glucohydrolase (myrosinase EC 3.2.3.1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucosinolates to isothiocyanate, glucose and sulfate. We have purified myrosinase from white mustard seed (Sinapis alba) in high yields and with a considerable specific activity in a single step by affinity chromatography on Con-A Sepharose.

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

Glucosinolate profile and Myrosinase gene expression are modulated upon Plasmodiophora brassicae infection in cabbage.

Functional Plant Biology, 2020
Clubroot is a devastating disease of Brassicaceae caused by the biotrophic protist Plasmodiophora brassicae. The progression of clubroot disease is modulated by the glucosinolate (GSL) profile of the host plant. GSL is hydrolysed by the enzyme myrosinase

The glucosinolate–myrosinase system in an ecological and evolutionary context

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2005
Functional analysis of natural variation in the model species Arabidopsis thaliana has enabled the cloning of many glucosinolate biosynthesis and hydrolysis genes. Variation in these genes is central to understanding the ecological role of the glucosinolate-myrosinase defense system, and allows us to dissect the evolutionary and ecological forces that ...
