Expression of polygalacturonase and cellulase, two hydrolytic enzymes of avocado (Persea americana, cv Hass) fruit which are synthesized de novo during ripening, and alcohol dehydrogenase, a known anaerobic protein, were studied under different O(2) regimes. Low O(2) concentrations (2.5-5.5%)
Nowadays, eutrophication is a very popular environmental problem in numerous waters around the world. The main reason of eutrophication is the enrichment of the nutrient, which results in the excessive growth of phytoplankton and some of them are toxic and harmful. Fortunately, some studies have
Germinated maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings were enclosed in modified triaxial cells in an artificial substrate and exposed to oxygen deficiency stress (4% oxygen, hypoxia) or to mechanical resistance to elongation growth (mechanical impedance) achieved by external pressure on the artificial substrate,
Either hypoxia, which stimulates ethylene biosynthesis, or temporary N starvation, which depresses ethylene production, leads to formation of aerenchyma in maize (Zea mays L.) adventitious roots by extensive lysis of cortical cells. We studied the activity of enzymes closely involved in either
Ethylene has been implicated in signaling cell death in the lysigenous formation of gas spaces (aerenchyma) in the cortex of adventitious roots of maize (Zea mays) subjected to hypoxia. Various antagonists that are known to modify particular steps in signal transduction in other plant systems were
The Gram-positive Streptomyces lividans TK24 is an attractive host for heterologous protein production because of its high capability to secrete proteins-which favors correct folding and facilitates downstream processing-as well as its acceptance of methylated DNA and its low In response to flooding/waterlogging, plants develop various anatomical changes including the formation of lysigenous aerenchyma for the delivery of oxygen to roots. Under hypoxia, plants produce high levels of nitric oxide (NO) but the role of this molecule in plant-adaptive response to hypoxia is
Cinnamoyl, p-coumaroyl, feruloyl, caffeoyl aloesin, and related compounds were isolated from Aloe species. The antiinflammatory and antioxidative activities of these compounds were examined based on the structure-activity relationship. It was suggested that the bioactivities may link to acyl ester
The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is a harsh environment characterized by low temperature, high altitude and hypoxia, although some native mammals may adapt well to the extreme climate. However, how animal gut microbial community structure and function adapt to extreme cold climates is not well understood.
The filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei is adapted to nutrient-poor environments, in which it uses extracellular cellulases to obtain glucose from the available cellulose biomass. We have isolated and characterized Trhxt1, a putative glucose transporter gene, as judged by the glucose accumulation
Sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) are conserved from yeast to mammalian cells and function in the regulation of sterol homeostasis. In fungi, the SREBP pathway has been implicated in the adaptation to hypoxia and in virulence. In Neurospora crassa and Trichoderma reesei, the SREBP
