Ginkgolides and bilobalide, collectively termed terpene trilactones (TTLs), are terpenoids that form the main active substance of Ginkgo biloba. Terpenoids in mevalonate (MVA) biosynthetic pathway include acetyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase (AACT) kinase (MVK) as core enzymes. In this study, two full-length (cDNAs) encoding AACT (GbAACT, GenBank Accession No. KX904942) MVK (GbMVK, KX904944) were cloned from G. The deduced GbAACT GbMVK proteins contain 404 396 amino acids with corresponding...
Selenium (Se) is an important trace element in human and animal health. Approximately 0.5–1 billion people worldwide are facing Se deficiency which can result various endemic diseases. Cabbage one of the most popular vegetables accumulate through biofortification. Therefore, producing Se-enriched cabbage may be effective method to alleviate deficiency. In this study, effects different concentrations selenite application on growth nutritional quality were investigated results showed that was...
Abstract Broussonetia papyrifera, a valuable feed resource, is known for its fast growth, wide adaptability, high protein content and strong selenium enrichment capacity. Selenomethionine (SeMet), the main form in fortification B. safe animals this enhances nutritional value as resource. However, molecular mechanisms underlying SeMet synthesis remain unclear. This study identified three homocysteine S-methyltransferase genes from papyrifera genome. The phylogenetic tree demonstrated that...
Abstract Terpene trilactones (TTLs) have important medicinal value, but their low content in Ginkgo biloba leaves makes exploitation extremely costly, thereby limiting the development of TTL related industries. It was found that exogenous methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment increased accumulation TTLs, molecular mechanism is still unclear. Here, we identified two bHLH transcription factors G. biloba, with protein subcellular localizations nucleus. GbMYC2s expression strongly induced by MeJA...
Plant-specific TCP transcription factors play an essential role in plant growth and development. They can regulate leaf curvature, flower symmetry the synthesis of secondary metabolites. The flavonoids Ginkgo biloba are one main medicinally bioactivate compounds, which have pharmacological beneficial health effects for humans. In this study, a total 13 genes were identified G. biloba, 5 them belonged to PCF subclades (GbTCP03, GbTCP07, GbTCP05, GbTCP13, GbTCP02) while others CIN (GbTCP01,...
Broussonetia papyrifera is an important fodder tree that widely distributed in China. Enhancing the selenium (Se) content B. may help to improve nutritional value of feed. In this study, sodium selenite and selenate were foliar applied investigate mechanisms Se tolerance accumulation papyrifera. The results showed both forms significantly increased total content, proportion organic was higher treatment than control. addition, soluble sugar, phenolic acid flavonoid contents antioxidant enzyme...
Carotenoids, as natural tetraterpenes, play a pivotal role in the yellow coloration of peaches and contribute to human dietary health. Despite relatively clear understanding carotenoid biosynthesis pathway, regulatory mechanism miRNAs involved synthesis remain poorly elucidated. This study investigated total 14 carotenoids 40 xanthophyll lipids, including six differentially accumulated carotenoids: violaxanthin, neoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin, cryptoxanthin, (E/Z)-phytoene. An integrated...
Roman chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile L.) is renowned for its production of essential oils, which major components are sesquiterpenoids. As the important enzyme in sesquiterpenoid biosynthesis pathway, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A synthase (HMGS) catalyze crucial step mevalonate pathway plants. To isolate and identify functional genes involved sesquiterpene C. L., a HMGS gene designated as CnHMGS (GenBank Accession No. KU529969) was cloned from nobile. The cDNA sequence contained 1377...
To elucidate the effect of anthocyanidin synthase (ANS) gene on anthocyanin accumulation in fruit skin Prunus persica (L.) Batsch cv. 'Chunmei', this study cloned and characterized an ANS (PpANS) from peach. PpANS (GenBank accession No. KX760117) was encoded by a 1074 bp-long open reading frame (ORF) corresponding to polypeptide consisting 358 amino acids with molecular mass 40.45 kD isoelectric point 5.46. contains conserved 2-oxoglutarate- iron-dependent dioxygenases non-haem dioxygenase...
Terpene trilactones (TTLs) are the main medicinal compounds of Ginkgo biloba. Levopimaradiene synthase (LPS) is crucial enzyme that catalyzes TTLs biosynthesis in G. In this study, a novel LPS gene (designated as GbLPS2) was cloned from biloba leaves. The open reading frame GbLPS2 2520 bp length, encoding predicted polypeptide 840 amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis revealed highly homologous with reported proteins other plants. On basis genomic DNA (gDNA) template, 4308 gDNA sequence and 913...
The objective of this study was to explain the physiological mechanisms through which Na 2 SeO 3 mitigates growth and developmental inhibition pakchoi under HgCl stress.The results showed that treatment with (40 mg L -1 ) led reduced biomass, dwarfing, root shortening, tip necrosis in pakchoi.Compared control (CK), activities superoxide dismutase (SOD) peroxidase (POD) Hg increased, content malondialdehyde (MDA) also dramatically negatively impacted pakchoi.Low concentrations (0.2...
Objective This study aimed to describe preliminary experiences associated with removal of tracheobronchial foreign bodies (TFBs) by cystourethroscopy (CU). Methods We performed a retrospective analysis 127 paediatric cases TFB CU at our centre from January 2009 August 2016. Data that were extracted the medical records included age, sex, location and nature TFBs, operation time, complications. Results All TFBs successfully removed CU. The mean time procedure was 3.38 ± 2.86 minutes. A total...
Flavonoids are a kind of important secondary metabolites in plants. Usually, it was found fruits, vegetables, beans, tea and many other plants as combination (flavonoid glycosides) or free states form. It has role regulating plant growth development. Chalcone synthase (CHS, EC 2.3.1.74), the first key during process flavonoids synthesis, plays an Based on whole peach genome sequence, full length cDNA sequence chalcone gene (CHS) from Prunus persica isolated by RT-PCR technology. This 1254...
