Herbivore induction of the glucosinolate-myrosinase defense system: major trends, biochemical bases and ecological significance [PDF]
Like many other plant defense compounds, glucosinolates are present constitutively in plant tissues, but are also induced to higher levels by herbivore attack.

Isolation of Myrosinase Producing Microorganism [PDF]
Screening tests were undertaken to obtain microorganisms which produce myrosinase. One strain of microorganism indicated a strong capasity for producing myrosinase. The morphological and physiological characteristics of this strain were studied. The organism was identified as Enterobacter cloacae, no.

Micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography—Synchronous monitoring of substrate and products in the myrosinase catalysed hydrolysis of glucosinolates [PDF]
A micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MECC) method has been developed for monitoring the myrosinase catalysed hydrolysis of 2-hydroxy substituted glucosinolates and the simultaneous formation of the corresponding degradation products ...

Effect of stevia supplementation of kale juice spheres on their quality changes during refrigerated shelf life [PDF]
Kale is a vegetable with high contents of health–promoting compounds although its consumption as a beverage is highly limited due to its bitter flavour. Nonetheless, the bitter flavour of Brassicas may be masked by sweetening.

Broccoli sprouts are a convenient and rich source of the glucosinolate glucoraphanin, which can generate the chemopreventive agent sulforaphane through the catalytic actions of plant myrosinase or β-thioglucosidases in the gut microflora.

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.

Differential Expression of Myrosinase Gene Families [PDF]
In mature seeds of Brassica napus three major and three minor myrosinase isoenzymes were identified earlier. These myrosinases are known to be encoded by at least two different families of myrosinase genes, denoted MA and MB. In the work described in this paper the presence of different myrosinase isoenzymes in embryos, seedlings, and vegetative mature
