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).

Inactivation of Thioglucosidase from Sinapis alba (White Mustard) Seed by Metal Salts
Molecules, 2020 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 ...

Arabidopsis cDNA Sequence Encoding Myrosinase [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1993 Myrosinase (0-thioglucosidase, thioglucoside glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.3.1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucosinolates, a class of sulfur-containing glycosides present in all Crucifers. Although intact glucosinolates are relatively nontoxic, their breakdown products (isothiocyanates, nitriles, or thiocyanates) have important biological influences on ...

Factors Influencing Sulforaphane Content in Broccoli Sprouts and Subsequent Sulforaphane Extraction
Foods, 2021 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
