Myrosinase: insights on structural, catalytic, regulatory, and environmental interactions

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2019
Glucosinolate–myrosinase is a substrate-enzyme defense mechanism present in Brassica crops. This binary system provides the plant with an efficient system against herbivores and pathogens.

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 ...

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

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 ...

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.

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

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.

Effect of temperature and insect herbivory on the regulation of glucosinolate-myrosinase system in Lepidium latifolium.

Physiologia Plantarum : An International Journal for Plant Biology, 2020
The glucosinolate-myrosinase (GLS-MYR) system is an important component of plant-insect interactions. However, there is no report on its performance in field conditions where the plants are subjected to both abiotic and biotic pressures simultaneously ...
