d-pinitol is the most commonly accumulated sugar alcohol in the Leguminosae family and has been observed to increase significantly in response to abiotic stress. While previous studies have identified genes involved in d-pinitol synthesis, no study has investigated transcript expression in planta.
Sugars and cyclitols leached from soybeans (Glycine max var Sparks) during imbibition were assayed as a function of time. Pinitol leached many times faster than carbohydrates. During the initial 20 minutes of imibition, the pinitol/carbohydrate ratio was 3.4, declining to 0.29 for fully imbibed
D-ononitol epimerase (OEP) catalyzes the conversion of D-ononitol to D-pinitol, which is the last step in the biosynthetic pathway, where myo-inositol is converted to pinitol in higher plants. In this study, OEP cDNA was isolated from Glycine max (GmOEP) and was functionally characterized, which
The xylem, in addition to transporting water, nutrients and metabolites, is also involved in long-distance signaling in response to pathogens, symbionts and environmental stresses. Xylem sap has been shown to contain a number of proteins including metabolic enzymes, stress-related proteins, signal
In Korea, soy (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) leaves are eaten as a seasonal vegetable or pickled in soy sauce. Ethyl acetate extracts of soy leaves (EASL) are enriched in pterocarpans and have potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. This study investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the
The mist culture system was conducted to study secreted polysaccharides from soybean ( Glycine max) roots grown for 15 days. Roots were rinsed with distilled water (DW) for 15 min, then with 30 mM oxalic acid (OXA) for 15 min to remove ionically bound sugar. Released sugars were further fractionated
During the first few days of nitrogen fixation activity by soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr) root nodules, d-chiro-inositol, myo-inositol, sucrose, alpha,alpha-trehalose, and maltose accumulate rapidly and reach concentrations several fold greater than concentrations in other plant organs.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common diabetic eye disease and a leading cause of blindness. The role of angiopoietin-2 a tyrosine kinase receptor is well-reported in angiogenesis during the onset of the disease. The purpose of this study is to screen out more potential herbal
Rhizobium japonicum bacteroids were isolated anaerobically from soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] nodules. The bacteroids, which were capable of acetylene reduction and respiration, were used to study the uptake of metabolites by a method which permits correction for nonspecific adsorption of
Metabolites in Bradyrhizobium japonicum bacteroids and in Glycine max (L.) Merr. cytosol from root nodules were analyzed using an isolation technique which makes it possible to estimate and correct for changes in concentration which may occur during bacteroid isolation. Bacteroid and cytosol
Soybeans are an important crop for agriculture and food, resulting in an increase in the range of its application. Recently, soybean leaves have been used not only for food products but also in the beauty industry. To provide useful and global metabolite information on the development of soy-based
The soybean plant (Glycine max) is widely used as an ingredient in various foods, nutraceuticals and cosmetics, due to their diverse bioactive compounds. Their metabolic compositions are likely affected by environmental conditions during growth. To investigate the influence of different
