Betaine accumulation and betaine-aldehyde dehydrogenase in spinach leaves.
Spinach leaf discs accumulated betaine when exposed to a mannitol solution of -20 bars. The accumulation was 12 micromoles per gram original fresh weight in a 24-hour period.Betaine-aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.8) was assayed in various subcellular fractions prepared from spinach leaves, and it was found only in the soluble fraction. This cytosolic enzyme was purified 175-fold, and its prop...
متن کاملModulation of the reactivity of the essential cysteine residue of betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH) catalyses the irreversible NAD(P)(+)-dependent oxidation of betaine aldehyde to glycine betaine. In the human opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa this reaction is an obligatory step in the assimilation of carbon and nitrogen when bacteria are growing in choline or choline precursors. As with every aldehyde dehydrogenase studied so far, BADH posses...
متن کاملIsolation and Characterization of the Betaine Aldehyde Dehydrogenase Gene in Ophiopogon japonicus
Betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH) catalyzes the last step in the synthesis of the glycine betaine from choline. The BADH gene from turfgrass Ophiopogon japonicus has not been reported. In this study, we first isolated the full length cDNA of betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase gene (OjBADH) from O. japonicus using Reverse TranscriptasePolymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) and Rapid Amplification of...
متن کاملCloning and sequence analysis of the safflower betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase gene.
In response to salinity or drought stress, many plants accumulate glycine betaine, which is a regulator of osmosis. In plants, the last step in betaine synthesis is catalyzed by betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH), a nuclear-encoded chloroplastic enzyme. Based on the conserved oligo amino acid residues of the published BADH genes from other higher plant species, a cDNA sequence, designated Ct...
