Immunological characterization of rapeseed myrosinase [PDF]
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
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).

Inactivation of Thioglucosidase from Sinapis alba (White Mustard) Seed by Metal Salts
The glucosinolates which are specialized plant metabolites of Brassica vegetables are prone to hydrolysis catalyzed by an endogenous enzyme myrosinase (thioglycoside hydrolase, thioglucosidase) that exists in Brassica plant tissue causing volatile ...

Factors Influencing Sulforaphane Content in Broccoli Sprouts and Subsequent Sulforaphane Extraction
Broccoli sprouts contain 10–100 times higher levels of sulforaphane than mature plants, something that has been well known since 1997. Sulforaphane has a whole range of unique biological properties, and it is especially an inducer of phase 2 detoxication

Molecular Modelling of Broccoli Myrosinase and its Interaction with Different Ligands
Myrosinase (ß-thioglucosidase glucohydrolase (EC 3.2.3.1)) is a glycoprotein responsible for the hydrolysis of glucosinolates, a group of sulfur-containing secondary metabolites present in Brassicaceae plants.

Distribution of Myrosinase in Rapeseed Tissues [PDF]
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.
