Characterization of PAP1-upregulated Glutathione S-transferase genes in Arabidopsis thaliana
Glutathione S-transferase (GST) plays an important role in the transport and accumulation of anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin in plants. In our previous study on Arabidopsis thaliana overexpressing the PRODUCTION OF ANTHOCYANIN PIGMENT 1 (PAP1) gene encoding an MYB transcription factor, the AtGSTF5 and AtGSTF6 genes encoding GST-like protein were up-regulated along with TRANSPARENT TESTA 19 (TT...
متن کاملTransgenic Arabidopsis Plants Expressing Tomato Glutathione S-Transferase Showed Enhanced Resistance to Salt and Drought Stress
Although glutathione S-transferases (GST, EC 2.5.1.18) are involved in response to abiotic stress, limited information is available regarding gene function in tomato. In this study, a GST gene from tomato, designated LeGSTU2, was cloned and functionally characterized. Expression profile analysis results showed that it was expressed in roots and flowers, and the transcription was induced by salt...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase activity and glutathione S-transferase mu expression in subjects with risk for colorectal cancer.
The glutathione S-transferases (alpha, mu, and pi), a family of Phase II detoxication enzymes, play a critical role in protecting the colon mucosa by catalyzing the conjugation of dietary carcinogens with glutathione. We investigated the efficacy of using the glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity of blood lymphocytes and GST-mu expression as biomarkers of risk for colorectal cancer. GST acti...
متن کاملAssociation between gastric mucosal glutathione-S-transferase activity, glutathione-S-transferase gene polymorphisms and Helicobacter pylori infection in gastric cancer.
AIM Helicobacter pylori infection, though common, leads to gastric cancer (GC) in less than 1% individuals, suggesting the role of host factors. We previously reported the role of glutathione-S-transferase (GST) polymorphisms, the gene encoding a carcinogen-detoxifying enzyme, in GC. This study was aimed to evaluate GST enzyme activity, GST polymorphism, glutathione (GSH) levels and H. pylori i...
متن کاملInduction of glutathione S-transferase activity in Triatoma infestans.
Several synthetic pesticides and allelochemicals used to treat Triatoma infestans adults by topic application showed some degree of cytosolic glutathione S-transferase (GST) induction. General inducers of detoxication systems such as phenobarbital and 3-methylcholantrene topically applied on T. infestans resulted in no GST induction. Meanwhile, general insecticide synergist such as piperonyl bu...
