A new osmotin-like protein gene from Solanum nigrum L. var indica (SindOLP) was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The full-length intron-less gene is 744 bp, encoding a mature protein of 247 amino acids with a molecular mass of 26 kDa. The protein has an N-terminal cleavable signal
BACKGROUND
Heterologous protein expression in microorganisms may contribute to identify and demonstrate antifungal activity of novel proteins. The Solanum nigrum osmotin-like protein (SnOLP) gene encodes a member of pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins, from the PR-5 sub-group, the last comprising
15-Norlubiminol and 15-norepilubiminol were obtained from Solanum aethiopicum as an inseparable 1:1 mixture in a relatively poor yield to that of the major phytoalexins, lubimin and epilubimin. Their structures were confirmed by chemical conversion starting from lubimin and epilubimin.
The simultaneous determination of dithiocarbamate (DTC) fungicide residues on fruits and vegetables was performed by liquid chromatography (LC) on a ZIC-pHILIC column coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). For each DTC subclass, i.e. dimethyldithiocarbamates (DMDs),
Along with the rapid development of glycomic tools, the study of lectin-carbohydrate interactions has expanded, opening the way for applications in the fields of analytic, diagnostic, and drug delivery. Chitin-binding lectins (CBLs) play roles in immune defense against chitin-containing pathogens.
An antifungal protein, designated MCha-Pr, was isolated from the intercellular fluid of bitter gourd (Momordica charantia) leaves during a screen for potent antimicrobial proteins from plants. The isolation procedure involved a combination of extraction, ammonium sulphate precipitation, gel
Sarcoptes scabiei, a parasite mite which causes scabies disease resulting in serious public health concern. The long-term scabies disease can lead to complications like septicemia, acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis, heart disease and secondary infections. Timely treatment to the affected
The Solanum abutiloides plant is highly resistant to soil-borne pathogens such as Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melongenae, Verticillium dahliae, and Ralstonia solanacearum. This species is utilized as a mating source of resistant cultivars and is also used as a rootstock. The root exudate of Solanum
Antifungal and anti-mycotoxigenic activity of 25 acetone leaf extracts of South African medicinal plants with potent antioxidant activity were investigated against three phytopathogenic fungal strains. The extracts exhibited varying degrees of in vitro anti-mycotoxigenic effect against
OBJECTIVE
The main objective of this study was to investigate the antifungal effect of Solanum torvum leaves against different field and storage fungi, and to identify its active compound. In addition, to evaluate in vitro and in vivo inhibitory efficacy on toxigenic strains of Aspergillus flavus
Steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) are a family of nitrogenous secondary metabolites produced in solanaceous plants. In our present study, γ-solamargine and its aglycone solasodine from Solanum nigrum were found to inhibit hyphae formation of Fusarium oxysporum. As phytoalexins, the formation of SGAs
Potato proteins are well known for their nutritional, emulsifying, foaming, gel forming or antioxidant properties that all make from them valuable protein source for food industry. Antifungal, antimicrobial and also antiviral properties, described for potato proteins in the review, enrich the
OBJECTIVE
Plants produce a variety of useful bioactive materials that have been used to cure different ailments of human beings. With the same idea in mind, the crude methanolic extract and various fractions of Solanum surrattense were screened for antibacterial, antifungal, phytotoxic and
A novel bacterial strain, S40T, with strong antifungal activity was isolated from the rhizosphere of green potato collected from Zealand, Denmark. Polyphasic analysis with a combined phenotypic, phylogenetic and genomic approach was used to characterize S40T. Phylogenetic
Specific roles of glycosylation appear to be protein-dependent. Plant aspartic proteases (APs) contain two or more consensus N-glycosylation sites; however, the importance of them is not well understood. StAPs (Solanum tuberosum aspartic proteases) are bifunctional proteins with both proteolytic and
