Actinomycin D stimulated phaseollin production in endocarp tissues of the French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), maximum production being obtained with 25 to 30 micrograms per milliliter of antibiotic. Under these conditions, net incorporation of (3)H-uridine into total cell ribonucleic acid was
The addition of an elicitor (glucan) to Phaseolus vulgaris cell suspension cultures increased the formation of the phytoalexin phaseollin. Intracellular pH and phosphate concentrations were studied with (31)P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy on elicitor-treated cells which were aerated during
(1) The regulation of the accumulation of the isoflavonoid-derived phytoalexin phaseollin in cell suspension cultures of Dwarf French Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris/ has been investigated. (2) An elicitor preparation from cell walls of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, the causal agent of anthracnose disease
Bean pod tissue (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. Top Crop) is induced to produce phaseollin when challenged with various microorganisms. The pods react in the same manner when challenged with 9-aminoacridine. This compound also caused an increase in concentrations of phenylalanine ammonia lyase, an
The enzyme L-phenylalanine ammonia-lyase was purified from leaves of Phaseolus vulgaris by Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration and Sepharose-4-B--succinyl-aminoethyl-L-phenylalanine affinity chromatography. L-Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase was specifically eluted from the affinity matrix with its substrate
Legumes are the predominant source of isoflavones considered to be phytoestrogens that mimic the hormone 17β-estradiol (E2). Due to the risks associated with hormone replacement therapy, there is a growing need for alternative sources of estrogenic formulations for the treatment of menopausal
Treatment of cell suspension cultures of Phaseolus vulgaris c.v. Immuna with an elicitor preparation heat-released from the cell walls of the phytopathogenic fungus Colletotrichum lindemuthianum resulted in rapid accumulation of the prenylated 5-hydroxyisoflavanone phytoalexin kievitone followed by
The intracellular localization of prenyltransferases involved in the biosynthesis of the phytoalexins glyceollin in soybean (Glycine max L.) and phaseollin in French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) has been investigated. By sucrose- and Percoll-gradient centrifugation of microsomes of an
Changes in the activity levels of mRNAs encoding phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and chalcone synthase, two characteristic enzymes of phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, in elicitor-treated cells of dwarf French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) have been investigated by immunoprecipitation of
Changes in the rate of synthesis of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and chalcone synthase, two characteristic enzymes of phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, have been investigated by direct immunoprecipitation of in vivo [35S]methionine-labelled enzyme subunits in elicitor-treated cells of dwarf French bean
Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and chalcone synthase catalyze the first reaction of phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and the first reaction of a branch pathway specific for flavonoid-isoflavonoid biosynthesis, respectively. These enzymes are key control elements in the synthesis of kievitone, phaseollin,
