A solid-phase enzyme immunoassay for the determination of immunoglobulin H (IgG) and IgM antibodies to cytomegalovirus is described. The gave reliable consistent results which were in concordance with those obtained by complement fixation test indirect immunofluorescence test. Antibodies herpes simplex varicella-zoster viruses did not interfere antibodies. In a few patients Epstein-Barr virus, also detected. False-positive antibody observed sera containing both rheumatoid factor IgG This...
A gamma-glutamyl kinase (ATP-L-glutamate 5-phosphotransferase) was purified about 85-fold from crude extracts of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PAO 1 by (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, molecular-sieving Sephadex G-150 and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The molecular weight this enzyme 84,000. preparation catalysed formation hydroxamate L-glutamate, ATP Mg2+ or Mn2+ with concomitant hydrolysis to ADP + Pi. L-Proline inhibited the activity 50% at 5 mM almost completely 30 mM. inhibition L-proline...
1. Cell-free extracts of Escherichia coli K12 catalyse the synthesis N-acetyl-l-phenylalanine from acetyl-CoA and l-phenylalanine. 2. The acetyl-CoA–l-phenylalanine α-N-acetyltransferase was purified 160-fold cell-free extracts. 3. enzyme has a pH optimum 8 catalyses acetylation Other l-amino acids such as histidine alanine are acetylated at slower rates. 4. A transacylase also E. its substrate specificity studied. 5. properties both these enzymes were compared with those other known amino...
Terpene synthases (TPSs) have diverse biological functions in plants. Though the roles of TPSs herbivore defense are well established many plant species, their role bacterial has been scarce and is emerging. Through functional genomics, here we report planta potato (Solanum tuberosum) terpene synthase (StTPS18) defense. Expression StTPS18 was highest leaves induced response to Pseudomonas syringae methyl jasmonate treatments. The recombinant exhibited bona fide (E,E)-farnesol activity...
SUMMARY Citral, a naturally occurring acyclic monoterpene aldehyde, is present in the essential oils of various plants, but only few produce it abundance. Despite its importance as key aroma molecule, knowledge regarding in‐planta biosynthesis citral and metabolic origin remains limited. Here, we have elucidated functions an alcohol dehydrogenase (CfADH1) aldoketo‐reductase (CfAKR2b) lemongrass ( Cymbopogon flexuosus ), one most cultivated aromatic crops for citral‐rich oil. Expression both...
Abstract Except for the genetic basis of citral-forming alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) in Litsea cubeba tree, and biochemical studies on enzymes from select plants, knowledge regarding in-planta biosynthesis citral its metabolic origin remains limited. Here, we have elucidated functions an ADH (CfADH1) aldoketo-reductase (CfAKR2b) lemongrass ( Cymbopogon flexuosus ), one most cultivated aromatic crops citral-rich essential oil. Expression both CfADH1 CfAKR2b showed correlation with...
