Background: Myrciaria dubia “camu-camu” a fruit-bearing shrub native to the Amazon, is known for its high vitamin C content. However, variations in biosynthesis and accumulation among different cultivars present challenges commercial production. This study aimed establish an efficient vitro regeneration protocol Vitahuayo cultivar through callus induction somatic embryogenesis. Methods: Stem leaf explants were cultured on Murashige Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 24-dichlorophenoxyacetic...
In plants, it is well-known that ascorbic acid (vitamin C) can be synthesized via multiple metabolic pathways but there still much to learned concerning their integration and control mechanisms. Furthermore, the structural biology of component enzymes has been poorly exploited. Here we describe first crystal structure for an L-galactose dehydrogenase [Spinacia oleracea GDH (SoGDH) from spinach], D-mannose/L-galactose (Smirnoff-Wheeler) pathway which converts into L-galactono-1,4-lactone. The...
Cyanobacteria are diverse photosynthetic microorganisms able to produce a myriad of bioactive chemicals. To make possible the rational exploitation these microorganisms, it is fundamental know their metabolic capabilities and have genomic resources. In this context, main objective research was determine genome features biochemical profile Synechococcus sp. UCP002. The cyanobacterium isolated from Peruvian Amazon Basin region cultured in BG-11 medium. Growth parameters, features, were...
Myrciaria dubia "camu-camu" is a native shrub of the Amazon that commonly found in areas are flooded for three to four months during annual hydrological cycle. This plant species exceptional its capacity biosynthesize and accumulate important quantities variety health-promoting phytochemicals, especially vitamin C [1], yet few genomic resources available [2]. Here we provide dataset de novo assembly functional annotation transcriptome from pool samples obtained seeds germination process...
The objectives were to determine seed biometrics, recording cellular respiration in the imbibition process, evaluate effect of inducing chemicals germination and early growth analysis. Cellular during was measured by reduction methylene blue Janus Green B. inductor five chemical compounds evaluated. Initial recorded stereoscopic. Results showed that seeds have an average weight 520 ± 172 mg, length 13.50 1.76 mm, width 10.61 1.14 thickness 4.68 0 62 mm. These variables significant...
Microalgae are photosynthetic organisms with cosmopolitan distribution (i.e., marine, freshwater and terrestrial habitats) possess a great diversity of species [1] consequently an immense variation in biochemical compositions [2]. To date genomic information is available mainly from the model green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [3]. Here we provide dataset de novo assembly functional annotation transcriptomes three native oleaginous microalgae Peruvian Amazon. Native Ankistrodesmus...
Ankistrodesmus falcatus strain UCP001 is a native oleaginous microalgae isolated from the Peruvian Amazon basin. In this study we sequenced, de novo assembled, and functionally annotated complete mitochondrial genome of (Accesion number MT701044). This mitogenome typical circular double stranded DNA molecule 41,048 bp in total length with G + C content 37.4%. The contains 49 genes, including 18 protein coding 5 ribosomal (rRNA) genes 26 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. A phylogenetic analysis...
Las microalgas son microorganismos fotosintéticos con gran potencial para abastecer las demandas energéticas mundiales. Sin embargo, los limitados conocimientos que se tienen de estos organismos, en particular a nivel molecular procesos metabólicos, han limitado su uso propósitos. En esta investigación ha realizado el análisis in silico la subunidad alfa acetil-Coenzima A carboxilasa heteromérica (αACCasa), una enzima clave biosíntesis lípidos Chlorella sp. y Scenedesmus Asimismo, medido...
The white-sands forests or varillales of the Peruvian Amazon are characterized by their distinct physical characteristics, patchy distribution, and endemism [1, 2]. Much research has been conducted on specialized plant animal communities that inhabit these ecosystems, yet soil microbiomes have to be studied. Here we provide metagenomic 16S rDNA amplicon data from three types in Allpahuayo-Mishana National Reserve near Iquitos, Peru. Composite samples were collected very low varillal,...
The tropical rainforest of a highly dissected low hill from the upper Itaya river basin belongs to western Amazonia region. Some investigations on biodiversity these rainforests were more focused animals and plants diversity. soils this region are composed moderately fertile sediments deposited recently initiation Andean orogenesis in Miocene until now. However, scientific information about soil microbial functional diversity is still missing. This report presents shotgun metagenomics...
