Polyphenol Oxidases in Crops: Biochemical, Physiological and Genetic Aspects
Enzymatic browning is a colour reaction occurring in plants, including cereals, fruit and horticultural crops, due to oxidation during postharvest processing and storage. This has a negative impact on the colour, flavour, nutritional properties and shelf life of food products. Browning is usually caused by polyphenol oxidases (PPOs), following cell damage caused by senescence, wounding and the ...
متن کاملBiochemical and genetic characterization of wheat (Triticum spp.) kernel polyphenol oxidases
Genetic variability of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity was evaluated in hexaploid, tetraploid, and aneuploid wheat (Triticum spp.). A DNA probe to kernel-specific PPO hybridized to PPO clones from an immature wheat kernel cDNA library but not to clones from a seedling cDNA library. Recombinant protein and antibody were developed from the kernel-specific PPO. PPO transcript and antigenic prote...
متن کاملGenetic and Physiological Aspects
It has long been known that diploid strains of yeast are more resistant to 7-rays than haploid cells, and that this is in part due to heterozygosity at the mating type (MAT) locus. It is shown here that the genetic control exerted by the MAT genes on DNA repair involves the a1 and a2 genes, in a R M E l independent way. In rad18 diploids, affected in the error-prone repair, the a/a effects are ...

متن کاملPlant Polyphenol Oxidases: Isolation and Characterization
Polyphenol oxidases are found both in prokaryotic and eukaryotic microorganisms, in mammals, invertebrates and plants. Most plants have multiple forms of PPO. The more recent articles regarding the polyphenol oxidases from different plants are reviewed. The main characteristics considered were the sources, structure and properties of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) as well as the inhibitors of this en...
