Potato acid phosphatase, AcPase (E.C. 3.1.3.2) was entrapped in reverse micelles of cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in isooctane and chloroform (1:1). The activity was studied at different values of Wo = ([water]/[surfactant]). AcPase exhibited superactivity in the reverse
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) hydrolyzes a variety of monophosphate esters and plays an important role in phosphorus (P) metabolism. Several nutrients in food have been reported to affect intestinal ALP activity in animal models. Previous reports indicated that high levels of P or phosphate in diets
Specific activities for soluble (s) and membrane (m)-bound acid (ACP) and alkaline phosphatases (ALP) were determined in the midgut, hindgut, and Malpighian tubules for developing, prediapausing, and diapausing adult Colorado potato beetles, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say). High ACP activities were
The effect of three different classes of surfactants viz., anionic, cationic and neutral on catalytic activity of potato acid phosphatase (AcPase) was studied. Anionic surfactants bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate (AOT) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) inhibited AcPase activity completely at 3
A single chain Fv antibody fragment (scFv) was obtained from a synthetic phage-antibody library after four rounds of selection against purified preparations of potato leafroll luteovirus (PLRV). Nucleotide sequence analysis showed that the scFv belongs to the human V(H)3 family. DNA encoding the
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was used as an amplification tool in lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). Potato virus Х (PVX) was selected as a target analyte because of its high economic importance. Two conjugates of gold nanoparticles were applied, one with mouse monoclonal antibody against PVX and one
The effect of sucrose on tuber formation, calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) and phosphatase activities was analysed using in vitro cultured potato plants. In short treatments, sucrose induced CDPK and phosphatase activities. In long treatments, sucrose induced tuber formation in the absence of
The ability of food proteins to resist digestion in simulated gastric fluid (SGF) correlates with allergenic potential. The purpose of the current investigations was to determine whether this association is due solely to the failure of unstable proteins to elicit an immune response when administered
A purple acid phosphatase from sweet potato is the first reported example of a protein containing an enzymatically active binuclear Fe-Mn center. Multifield saturation magnetization data over a temperature range of 2 to 200 K indicates that this center is strongly antiferromagnetically coupled.
Purple acid phosphatase (PAP) was purified from sweet potato dry powder, which is used as a food additive. Spectrometric and enzymatic analyses, and analysis of the amino-terminal sequence indicated that the purified purple acid phosphatase was PAP1. High activity in neutral and acidic conditions,
Purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) are a family of binuclear metalloenzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphoric acid esters and anhydrides. A PAP in sweet potato has a unique, strongly antiferromagnetically coupled Fe(III)-Mn(II) center and is distinguished from other PAPs by its increased
Purple acid phosphatase from sweet potato is a homodimer of 110 kDa. Two forms of the enzyme have been characterized. One contains an Fe-Zn centre similar to that previously reported for red kidney bean purple acid phosphatase. Another isoform, the subject of this work, is the first confirmed
Sweet potato acid phosphatase was covalently coupled with glutaraldehyde to aminopropyl controlled-pore glass, and used as a pre-column enzyme reactor. The immobilized enzyme reactor (IMER) was continuously operated using an automated chromatographic detection system we developed. Functional
Infiltration of potato leaves with the phytopathogenic bacteria Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola induces local and systemic defense gene expression as well as increased resistance against subsequent pathogen attacks. By cDNA-AFLP a gene was identified that is activated locally in potato leaves in
1. Acid phosphatase (AcPase) from potato tubers was purified by tannic acid fractionation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, filtration on Bio-Gel P-150 and affinity chromatography on Con A-Sepharose. The enzyme was purified 260-fold and was electrophoretically homogeneous; its mol. mass is about 69
