Metallothioneins (MTs) are of low molecular mass, cysteine-rich proteins. They play an important role in the detoxification of heavy metals and homeostasis of intracellular metal ions, and protecting against intracellular oxidative damages. In this study a full-length cDNA of type 2 plant
Metallothioneins (MTs) are the cysteine-rich proteins with low molecular weight, which play important roles in maintaining intracellular ion homeostasis, detoxification of heavy metal ions and protecting against intracellular oxidative damages. In this study a novel ethephon-induced metallothionein
BACKGROUND
Over three thousand species of plants, including important food crops such as cassava, use cyanogenesis, the liberation of HCN upon tissue damage, as a defense against predation. Detoxification of cyanogenic food crops requires disruption of the cyanogenic pathway. Hydroxynitrile lyase is
An anaerobic, gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium strain SP17-B1, isolated from dog saliva, was taxonomically characterized on the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and genotypic characteristics. It was cultured in 4% (w/v) NaCl at a pH range of 5.0-8.0 (optimally at pH 7) and at 30°C-40 °C
