The hydroxynitrile lyase from almond: a lyase that looks like an oxidoreductase. (1/487)
BACKGROUND: Cyanogenesis is a defense process of several thousand plant species. Hydroxynitrile lyase, a key enzyme of this process, cleaves a cyanohydrin into hydrocyanic acid and the corresponding aldehyde or ketone. The reverse reaction constitutes an important tool in biocatalysis. Different classes of hydroxynitrile lyases have convergently evolved from FAD-dependent oxidoreductases, alpha/beta hydrolases, and alcohol dehydrogenases. The FAD-dependent hydroxynitrile lyases (FAD-HNLs) carry a flavin cofactor whose redox properties appear to be unimportant for catalysis. RESULTS: We have determined the crystal structure of a 61 kDa hydroxynitrile lyase isoenzyme from Prunus amygdalus (PaHNL1) to 1.5 A resolution. Clear electron density originating from four glycosylation sites could be observed. As concerns the overall protein fold including the FAD cofactor, PaHNL1 belongs to the family of GMC oxidoreductases. The active site for the HNL reaction is probably at a very similar position as the active sites in homologous oxidases. CONCLUSIONS: There is strong evidence from the structure and the reaction product that FAD-dependent hydroxynitrile lyases have evolved from an aryl alcohol oxidizing precursor. Since key residues implicated in oxidoreductase activity are also present in PaHNL1, it is not obvious why this enzyme shows no oxidase activity. Similarly, features proposed to be relevant for hydroxy-nitrile lyase activity in other hydroxynitrile lyases, i.e., a general base and a positive charge to stabilize the cyanide, are not obviously present in the putative active site of PaHNL1. Therefore, the reason for its HNL activity is far from being well understood at this point. (+info)Quantitative determination of flavonoids in the flowers and leaves of Prunus spinosa L. (2/487)
The content of flavonoids in the flowers and leaves of Prunus spinosa L. was determined by spectrophotometric and RP-HPLC method. Determinations included hydrolysis of flavonoid glycosides in extracts from raw materials and then quantitative analysis of the obtained aglycones. Results were calculated for the content of glycosides and statistical analysis of the obtained data was performed. (+info)The active site of hydroxynitrile lyase from Prunus amygdalus: modeling studies provide new insights into the mechanism of cyanogenesis. (3/487)
The FAD-dependent hydroxynitrile lyase from almond (Prunus amygdalus, PaHNL) catalyzes the cleavage of R-mandelonitrile into benzaldehyde and hydrocyanic acid. Catalysis of the reverse reaction-the enantiospecific formation of alpha-hydroxynitriles--is now widely utilized in organic syntheses as one of the few industrially relevant examples of enzyme-mediated C-C bond formation. Starting from the recently determined X-ray crystal structure, systematic docking calculations with the natural substrate were used to locate the active site of the enzyme and to identify amino acid residues involved in substrate binding and catalysis. Analysis of the modeled substrate complexes supports an enzymatic mechanism that includes the flavin cofactor as a mere "spectator" of the reaction and relies on general acid/base catalysis by the conserved His-497. Stabilization of the negative charge of the cyanide ion is accomplished by a pronounced positive electrostatic potential at the binding site. PaHNL activity requires the FAD cofactor to be bound in its oxidized form, and calculations of the pKa of enzyme-bound HCN showed that the observed inactivation upon cofactor reduction is largely caused by the reversal of the electrostatic potential within the active site. The suggested mechanism closely resembles the one proposed for the FAD-independent, and structurally unrelated HNL from Hevea brasiliensis. Although the actual amino acid residues involved in the catalytic cycle are completely different in the two enzymes, a common motif for the mechanism of cyanogenesis (general acid/base catalysis plus electrostatic stabilization of the cyanide ion) becomes evident. (+info)The complete nucleotide sequence of RNA 3 of a peach isolate of Prunus necrotic ringspot virus. (4/487)
The complete nucleotide sequence of RNA 3 of the PE-5 peach isolate of Prunus necrotic ringspot ilarvirus (PNRSV) was obtained from cloned cDNA. The RNA sequence is 1941 nucleotides and contains two open reading frames (ORFs). ORF 1 consisted of 284 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 31,729 Da and ORF 2 contained 224 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 25,018 Da. ORF 2 corresponds to the coat protein gene. Expression of ORF 2 engineered into a pTrcHis vector in Escherichia coli results in a fusion polypeptide of approximately 28 kDa which cross-reacts with PNRSV polyclonal antiserum. Analysis of the coat protein amino acid sequence reveals a putative "zinc-finger" domain at the amino-terminal portion of the protein. Two tetranucleotide AUGC motifs occur in the 3'-UTR of the RNA and may function in coat protein binding and genome activation. ORF 1 homologies to other ilarviruses and alfalfa mosaic virus are confined to limited regions of conserved amino acids. The translated amino acid sequence of the coat protein gene shows 92% similarity to one isolate of apple mosaic virus, a closely related member of the ilarvirus group of plant viruses, but only 66% similarity to the amino acid sequence of the coat protein gene of a second isolate. These relationships are also reflected at the nucleotide sequence level. These results in one instance confirm the close similarities observed at the biophysical and serological levels between these two viruses, but on the other hand call into question the nomenclature used to describe these viruses. (+info)Ethylene-responsive genes are differentially regulated during abscission, organ senescence and wounding in peach (Prunus persica). (5/487)
Ethylene-responsive genes from peach (Prunus persica, L. Batsch) were isolated by differential screening of a cDNA library constructed from abscission zones in which cell separation had been evoked by treatment with the ethylene analogue propylene. DNA and deduced protein sequences of four selected clones, termed Prunus persica Abscission zone (PpAz), revealed homology to thaumatin-like proteins (PpAz8 and PpAz44), to proteins belonging to the PR4 class of pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins (PpAz89), and to fungal and plant beta-D-xylosidases (PpAz152). Expression analyses conducted on embrioctomized and CEPA-treated fruitlets as well as on fruit explants have shown that PpAz8, PpAz44 and PpAz89 are preferentially transcribed in the cells of the fruit abscission zone rather than in the non-zone tissues. The PpAz152 transcript showed a different accumulation pattern being consistently and promptly induced by wounding and only slightly stimulated by propylene. By contrast, a complex pattern of transcript accumulation was found for the four genes in response to the wounding of leaves and during organ development and senescence. Based on this evidence, the existence of multiple regulatory pathways underlying the differential expression of the four PpAz genes in the different tissues and physiological processes is hypothesized. (+info)Flavonoids from the flowers of Prunus spinosa L. (6/487)
Eight flavonoids were isolated from the flowers of Prunus spinosa: kaempferol, quercetin, kaempferol 3-O-alpha-L-arabinofuranoside, quercetin 3-O-alpha-L-arabinofuranoside, kaempferol 3-O-alpha-L-ramnopyranoside, kaempferol 7-O-alpha-L-ramnopyranoside, kaempferol 3-O-beta-D-xylopyranoside, kaempferol 3-O-(2''-E-p-coumaroyl)-alpha-L-arabinofuranoside. The last three have been found for the first time in this plant. The structure of the compounds was determined by means of chemical and spectral methods (UV, IR, LSI MS, 1H NMR, 13C NMR). (+info)Distinct nuclear organization, DNA methylation pattern and cytokinin distribution mark juvenile, juvenile-like and adult vegetative apical meristems in peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch). (7/487)
Chromatin organization, nuclear DNA methylation and endogenous zeatin localization were investigated in shoot apical meristems (SAM) during juvenile and adult phases of peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch). The aim was to examine the extent to which these parameters could discriminate the juvenile and adult SAMs. Seedlings (juvenile, cannot flower), basal shoots (called juvenile-like, because they exhibit juvenile macroscopic traits) and apical shoots (competent to form flowers) of adult plants were chosen. Nuclear chromatin exhibited chromocentres that were peripherally distributed in SAMs of juvenile and juvenile-like shoots, but were diffusely spread in those of adult shoots. These patterns coincided with a peripheral labelling of DNA methylation in juvenile and juvenile-like meristem nuclei versus a diffuse labelling pattern in adult meristem nuclei. During vegetative growth (from March to June), the level of nuclear DNA methylation was higher in adult meristems than in juvenile and juvenile-like ones. The immunolocalization of zeatin in juvenile SAM was in the subapical region, but adult meristems exhibited a widespread localization or a signal confined within the boundaries of the central zone. The extent to which the acquisition of a strongly zonated pattern of these parameters as markers of floral competence in adult SAMs is discussed. (+info)Molecular characterisation of sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) genotypes using peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] SSR sequences. (8/487)
A total of 76 sweet cherry genotypes were screened with 34 microsatellite primer pairs previously developed in peach. Amplification of SSR loci was obtained for 24 of the microsatellite primer pairs, and 14 of them produced polymorphic amplification patterns. On the basis of polymorphism and quality of amplification, a set of nine primer pairs and the resulting 27 informative alleles were used to identify 72 genotype profiles. Of these, 68 correspond to unique cultivar genotypes, and the remaining four correspond to three cultivars that could not be differentiated from the two original genotypes of which they are mutants, and two very closely related cultivars. The mean number of alleles per locus was 3.7 while the mean heterozygosity over the nine polymorphic loci averaged 0.49. The results demonstrate the usefulness of cross-species transferability of microsatellite sequences allowing the discrimination of different genotypes of a fruit tree species with sequences developed in other species of the same genus. UPGMA cluster analysis of the similarity data divided the ancient genotypes studied into two fairly well-defined groups that reflect their geographic origin, one with genotypes originating in southern Europe and the other with the genotypes from northern Europe and North America. (+info)"Prunus" is a term that refers to a genus of plants, which includes many familiar fruits such as plums, cherries, peaches, and almonds. It's not a medical term, but rather a botanical one. The fruit of these plants are often used in food medicine due to their nutritional value and health benefits. For example, prunes (dried plums) are known for their laxative effects. However, the plant itself or its extracts can also have medicinal uses, mainly as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and cardioprotective agents.
I'm sorry for any confusion, but "Ilarvirus" is not a recognized term in medical terminology or in virology. It seems there might be a misunderstanding or a typo in your question. Ilarviruses are actually a genus of viruses in the family Bromoviridae, and they primarily infect plants. They are not associated with human or animal diseases. If you have any other questions or if there's a specific concept related to virology or medicine that you'd like me to clarify, please let me know!
Rosaceae is not a medical term but a taxonomic category in biology, specifically an family of flowering plants. However, many physicians and dermatologists are familiar with some members of this family because they cause several common skin conditions.
Rosaceae refers to a family of plants that include roses, strawberries, blackberries, and many other ornamental and edible plants. Some genera within this family contain species known to cause various dermatologic conditions in humans, particularly affecting the face.
The most well-known skin disorders associated with Rosaceae are:
1. Acne rosacea (or rosacea): A chronic inflammatory skin condition primarily affecting the central face, characterized by flushing, persistent erythema (redness), telangiectasia (dilated blood vessels), papules, pustules, and sometimes rhinophyma (enlarged, bulbous nose).
2. Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea: A subtype of rosacea characterized by persistent central facial erythema, flushing, and telangiectasia without papules or pustules.
3. Phymatous rosacea: A subtype of rosacea characterized by thickening skin, irregular surface nodularities, and enlargement, particularly of the nose (rhinophyma).
4. Ocular rosacea: Inflammation of the eyes and eyelids associated with rosacea, causing symptoms like dryness, grittiness, foreign body sensation, burning, stinging, itching, watering, redness, and occasional blurry vision.
While not a medical term itself, Rosaceae is an essential concept in dermatology due to the skin conditions it encompasses.
Pygeum is not a medical term itself, but it refers to the extract derived from the bark of the African plum tree (Prunus africana). Pygeum is commonly used in supplements and alternative medicines, particularly for treating symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH). The extract contains various compounds, including phytosterols, ferulic acid, and campesterol, which are believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and may help alleviate the urinary symptoms associated with BPH. However, it is essential to consult a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement regimen, as pygeum can interact with certain medications and may have side effects.
I apologize for any confusion, but "Rosales" is not a medical term. It is a botanical term used in the classification of plants. Rosales is an order of flowering plants that includes roses, as well as many other plants such as apples, cherries, almonds, and strawberries. The plants in this group are characterized by having flowers with multiple stamens and styles. I hope this clarifies any confusion. If you have any medical terms you would like defined, please let me know!
I'm sorry for any confusion, but "fruit" is not a medical term per se. It is a common term used to describe the part of a plant that develops from the ovary after flowering and contains seeds. However, in a nutritional or dietary context, "fruits" are often referred to as foods that are typically sweet and juicy, and come from plants' flowers. They are rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, making them an essential part of a healthy diet. But in a strict medical sense, there isn't a specific definition for "fruit."
F-box motifs are protein domains that are approximately 40-50 amino acids in length and are found in a variety of eukaryotic proteins. They are named after the first identified protein containing this domain, called F-box protein, which was discovered in fission yeast.
The F-box motif is characterized by a conserved sequence known as the F-box, which interacts with other proteins to form a larger complex called the Skp1-Cul1-F-box (SCF) protein complex. This complex plays a critical role in ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of specific target proteins by the 26S proteasome.
The F-box motif is typically found at the N-terminus of F-box proteins, which are themselves part of a larger family of proteins called F-box containing proteins (FBPs). There are three main types of FBPs: FBXWs, FBXLs, and FBXOs. Each type contains a different domain that recognizes specific motifs or sequences in target proteins, allowing for selective ubiquitination and degradation.
In summary, the F-box motif is a protein domain found in FBPs that plays a critical role in the regulation of protein stability through ubiquitination and subsequent degradation by the 26S proteasome.
Amygdalin is a naturally occurring compound found in the seeds of some fruits, such as apricots, and in certain nuts, including almonds. It is also known as "laetrile" and has been promoted as an alternative treatment for cancer. However, its effectiveness as a cancer treatment is not supported by scientific evidence, and it can have serious side effects, including cyanide poisoning. The use of amygdalin as a medical treatment is not approved by regulatory agencies in many countries, including the United States and Canada.
Self-incompatibility (SI) in flowering plants is a genetic mechanism that prevents self-fertilization and promotes outcrossing. It is a complex system that recognizes and rejects self-pollen, thus preventing the fusion of sperm and egg from the same plant. This ensures genetic diversity within plant populations and reduces the risk of inbreeding depression.
Self-incompatibility systems are classified into two main types: homomorphic and heteromorphic. Homomorphic SI is found in plants where all individuals have the same morphological appearance, but their pollen is rejected by genetically similar stigmas. Heteromorphic SI occurs in plants with distinct morphological differences between individuals (dimorphic or trimorphic), and pollen from one form is rejected by the stigma of another form.
The genetic basis for self-incompatibility involves a specific gene locus, called the S-locus, which contains two tightly linked genes: the pistil S gene (SP) and the pollen S gene (SR). The SP gene encodes a receptor kinase in the stigma that recognizes and interacts with the SR protein on compatible pollen grains. In self-incompatible interactions, the SP and SR proteins interact in a way that triggers a signal transduction cascade leading to the inhibition of pollen tube growth and subsequent rejection of self-pollen.
Self-incompatibility is an essential mechanism for maintaining genetic diversity and ensuring the long-term survival and adaptability of plant populations.
Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN) is a chemical compound with the formula H-C≡N. It is a colorless, extremely poisonous and flammable liquid that has a bitter almond-like odor in its pure form. However, not everyone can detect its odor, as some people lack the ability to smell it, which makes it even more dangerous. It is soluble in water and alcohol, and its aqueous solution is called hydrocyanic acid or prussic acid.
Hydrogen Cyanide is rapidly absorbed by inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact, and it inhibits the enzyme cytochrome c oxidase, which is essential for cellular respiration. This leads to rapid death due to hypoxia (lack of oxygen) at the cellular level. It is used industrially in large quantities as a pesticide, fumigant, and chemical intermediate, but it also has significant potential for use as a chemical weapon.
In the medical field, Hydrogen Cyanide poisoning can be treated with high-concentration oxygen, sodium nitrite, and sodium thiosulfate, which help to restore the function of cytochrome c oxidase and enhance the elimination of cyanide from the body.
Plum Pox Virus (PPV) is a member of the genus Potyvirus, which belongs to the family Potyviridae. It is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus that primarily infects stone fruit trees, including plums, peaches, nectarines, apricots, and cherries. The name "plum pox" comes from the characteristic symptoms observed in infected plum trees, which include pitting, discoloration, and deformation of the fruits, giving them a rough, pockmarked appearance similar to that of a plum.
The virus is primarily transmitted through the vector insects, such as aphids, that feed on the sap of infected plants. It can also be spread through grafting, budding, or contaminated tools and equipment. The incubation period for PPV can range from several weeks to several months, depending on the host plant and environmental conditions.
Plum Pox Virus is a significant concern for fruit growers worldwide, as it can cause substantial economic losses due to reduced fruit quality and yield. Currently, there are no effective treatments or cures for PPV infections, so prevention through the use of certified virus-free planting material and strict quarantine measures is essential to control its spread.
"Fragaria" is the genus name for plants in the family Rosaceae, which includes various species of strawberries. These plants are native to temperate regions of the world and are widely cultivated for their edible fruits. The term "Fragaria" itself does not have a specific medical definition, but certain compounds found in strawberries, such as flavonoids and vitamin C, have been studied for potential health benefits.
