Synergistic Activity between Two Antifungal Proteins, the Plant Defensin NaD1 and the Bovine Pancreatic Trypsin Inhibitor [PDF]
mSphere, 2017 Defensins are a large family of small, cationic, cysteine-rich proteins that are part of the defense arsenal that plants use for protection against potentially damaging fungal infections.

The Plant Defensin, NaD1, Enters the Cytoplasm of Fusarium Oxysporum Hyphae [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2008 The plant defensin, NaD1, from the flowers of Nicotiana alata displays potent antifungal activity against a variety of agronomically important filamentous fungi including Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (Fov). To understand the mechanism of this antifungal activity, the effect of NaD1 on Fov fungal membranes and the location of NaD1 in treated ...

NaD1 forms oligomeric complexes with phosphatidylinositol to lyse cell membranes [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section A Foundations and Advances, 2014 Cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAPs) are innate defense molecules produced by essentially all living species and represent a rich source of novel therapeutic molecules for the treatment of human diseases including cancer. Although several CAPs (mainly from amphibians and vertebrates) have been shown to exhibit direct toxicity against tumor cells, the

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the plant defensin NaD1 [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section F Structural Biology and Crystallization Communications, 2011 Plant defensins are small (~5 kDa) basic cysteine-rich proteins that are being explored in important agricultural crops for their ability to confer enhanced disease resistance against fungal pathogens. NaD1, isolated from the flowers of the ornamental tobacco (Nicotiana alata), is a particularly well characterized antifungal defensin.

In the Nicotiana sylvestris CMSII mutant, a recombination‐mediated change 5′ to the first exon of the mitochondrial nad1 gene is associated with lack of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) NAD1 subunit [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1999 We previously reported that the Nicotiana sylvestris CMSII mutant mitochondrial DNA carried a large deletion. Several expressed sequences, most of which are duplicated, and the unique copy of the nad7 gene encoding the NAD7 subunit of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex (complex I) are found in the deletion.
