sinapis arvensis/phosphatase

Photolyase/blue-light photoreceptor family of proteins includes cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer photolyase, (6-4) photolyase and blue-light photoreceptors that were recently discovered in Arabidopsis thaliana, Sinapis alba and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Recently, we identified two human genes, hCRY1

Mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seeds were cultivated for seven days on a solid nutrient medium supplemented with 040 microg microcystin-RR per ml. Microcystin-RR affected seedling growth (IC50 0.8 microg/ml) and microcystin concentrations > or =5.0 microg/ml produced malformed plants. The inhibition of

Chloroplast and etioplast RNA polymerase preparations each consist of a multi-subunit core and a set of three sigma-like transcription factors, SLF67, SLF52 and SLF29. Despite this structural similarity, the enzymes from either plastid type are functionally distinct, as is reflected by their

OBJECTIVE To study the effective fraction of the extract of seeds of Brassica alba, which inhibits experimental mice prostatic hyperplasia. METHODS An experimental model of prostatic hyperplasia of castrated male mice induced by testosterone propionate was made. Fractions I, II and III were prepared

OBJECTIVE To study the active components and their functionary mechanism of the extract of Brassica alba seeds, which inhibits experimental mice prostatic hyperplasia. METHODS Prostatic hyperplasia of castrated male mice induced by testosterone propionate, the penetrability of capillary vessel of

This study compares the histological, cytological and biochemical effects of the cyanobacterial toxins microcystin-LR (MCY-LR) and cylindrospermopsin (CYN) in white mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seedlings, with special regard to the developing root system. Cyanotoxins induced different alterations,

This work focuses on the comparative analysis of the effects of two cyanobacterial toxins of different chemical structure cylindrospermopsin (CYN) and microcystin-LR (MC-LR) on the white mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seedlings. Both cyanotoxins reduced significantly the fresh mass and the length of

A double-mutant cell line, which was unable to grow in a medium with NO 3 (-) as the sole nitrogen source and was resistant to 5-methyl-tryptophan (5MT), was selected from cell suspensions of Sinapis turgida Del. (Brassicaceae) by culturing the cells in AA medium (Toriyama and Hinata, 1985, Plant

Microcystins (MCs) are cyclic heptapeptides and protein phosphatase inhibitors produced by many species of cyanobacteria. MCs have been shown to cause adverse effects on animals as well as plants and therefore methods are needed for analysing MCs in different matrices. We assessed the effects of MC
