A novel alpha-amylase inhibitor from amaranth (Amaranthus hypocondriacus) seeds.

The major alpha-amylase inhibitor (AAI) present in the seeds of Amaranthus hypocondriacus, a variety of the Mexican crop plant amaranth, is a 32-residue-long polypeptide with three disulfide bridges. Purified AAI strongly inhibits the alpha-amylase activity of insect larvae (Tribolium castaneum and Prostephanus truncatus) and does not inhibit proteases and mammalian alpha-amylases. AAI was sequ...

Purification, characterization, and complete amino acid sequence of a trypsin inhibitor from amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus) seeds.

A protein proteinase inhibitor was purified from a seed extract of amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus) by precipitation with (NH4)2SO4, gel-filtration chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography, and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. It is a 69-amino acid protein with a high content of valine, arginine, and glutamic acid, but lacking in methionine. The inhibitor has a rela...

Physiological and Molecular Characterization of Hydroxyphenylpyruvate Dioxygenase (HPPD)-inhibitor Resistance in Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S.Wats.)

Herbicides that inhibit hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) such as mesotrione are widely used to control a broad spectrum of weeds in agriculture. Amaranthus palmeri is an economically troublesome weed throughout the United States. The first case of evolution of resistance to HPPD-inhibiting herbicides in A. palmeri was documented in Kansas (KS) and later in Nebraska (NE). The objective o...

Biochemical Nature of a Natural α-Amylase Inhibitor from Wild Amaranth (Amaranthus paniculatus) Seeds

Endogenous á-amylase inhibitors exist widely in animals, plants and microorganisms. These inhibitors show remarkable structure variety with different modes of inhibition and specificity against different á-amylases. To explore the alpha-amylase inhibitors in wild amaranth, a novel proteinaceous inhibitor of á-amylase, named WAI-1, was purified and its structure and function were investigated in...

Action of Phytochrome During Prechilling of Amaranthus retroflexus L. Seeds.

Dark germination of Amaranthus retroflexus L. seeds at 35 degrees increased after several days of prechilling at 20 degrees or lower. Irradiation with far-red light for short periods during the early hours of a prechilling period at 10 degrees inhibited subsequent dark germination at 35 degrees . The inhibition was completely reversible with red light. Far-red irradiation in the latter part of ...
