Ferulic Acid-Sucrose Esters from Immature Anthers of Tulipa cv. “Apeldoorn”

چکیده
Tulipa, Liliaceae, Hydroxycinnamic Acid Conjugates, Ferulic Acid Esters, Sucrose Two ferulic acid conjugates have been isolated from the extract of immature anthers of Tulipa cv. “Apeldoorn” and their structures elucidated using chromatography, electron impact mass spectrometry, and NMR spectroscopy. These two conjugates are 6,3'-diferuloylsucrose and 6,3',4'triferuloylsucrose. High performance liquid chromatographic analysis of the extract showed that these esters are transient major constituents of the phenylpropanoid pattern of the immature anthers and are present in the ratio of 1:2. Previous investigations showed that these components are accumulated in the loculus.

Cucurbitaceae, Cucurbita maxima, Tracer Experiments, Potash Fusion, Sporopollenin The results of tracer experiments performed with anthers of Tulipa cv. Apeldoorn have already shown that a high level of incorporation into the sporopollenin fraction was achieved, when [14C]phenylalanine was applicated as a precursor. In order to investigate whether the substantial incorporation of [14C]phenylala...
متن کاملPurification of Chalcone Synthase from Tulip Anthers and Comparison with the Synthase from Cosmos Petals
Chalcone synthase was isolated from both anthers of Tulipa cv. “Apeldoorn” and petals of Cosmos sulphureus Cav. After certain prepurification steps, the enzymes were further purified using gel chromatography on Sephadex G-200 followed by repeated hydroxylapatite absorption chromatography. Both the enzymes showed the same chromatographic properties. After gel chromatography as well as after the ...

Two novel anthocyanins, delphinidin 3-O-(6-O-(2-O-acetyl-α-rhamnopyranosyl)-β-glucopyranoside) and delphinidin 3-O-(6-O-(3-O-acetyl-α-rhamnopyranosyl)-β-glucopyranoside), were identified from the anthers of Tulipa gesneriana. These and delphinidin 3-O-(6-O-(α-rhamnopyranosyl)-β-glucopyranoside) made up over 80% of the anthocyanin content in the dark purple anthers and could be responsible for t...

Three separate experiments were conducted to investigate the interplay between three phytohormones and sucrose for the change of flower color composition and the plant secondary metabolites in Tulipa. The variations of the physiological and morphological characteristics, with ABA at 5 and 10 mg/L (as experiment one), GA3 at 300 and 500 mg/L (as experiment two), 50 and 10...
متن کاملPartial Purification and Some Properties of a Hydroxycinnamoyl Glucosyltransferase from Tomato Fruits
A glucosyltransferase was isolated from immature “cherry” tomatoes and was partially purified (200-fold) by ammonium sulphate precipitation and successive chromatography on Sephadex G-100 and DEAE-cellulose columns. The enzyme utilised the free hydroxycinnamic acids and UDP-glucose in the formation of their respective glucosides (pH 8.0) and glucose esters (pH 7.0); but did not accept the CoA t...
