Effect of Chemical Mutagen on Some Biochemical Properties of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni
Induced mutagenesis causes an increase variation of some products with limited genetic resources. In this study, the antioxidant enzymes activity, biochemical properties and glycoside content of Stevia were assessed by EMS (chemical mutagen) based on two experiments as factorial with completely randomized design with three replications. The results of the first experiment showed that some prope...
متن کاملBiocontrol Activities of Gamma Induced Mutants of Trichoderma harzianum against some Soilborne Fungal Pathogens and their DNA Fingerprinting
Background: Random induced mutation by gamma radiation is one of the genetic manipulation strategies to improve the antagonistic ability of biocontrol agents. Objectives: This study aimed to induce mutants with more sporulation, colonization rate leading to enhanced antagonistic ability (in vitro assay) comparing to wild type (WT) and the assessment of genetic differences (in situ evaluat...
متن کاملIn vitro Interaction of HSV-1 ORF P with Both Thymidine Kinase (TK) and an Unidentified Cellular Protein
Herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) is a neurotropic pathogen of humans that establishes latent infection in the sensory ganglia innervating the site of primary infection. A number of genes control HSV-1 pathogenicity and latency. Open reading frame P (ORF P) is one of these genes that might have a role in latency and pathogenesis. A complication in the analysis of the role of ORF P in the HSV-...
متن کاملEvidence that the 'active centre' of the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase involves an interaction between three distinct regions of the polypeptide.
The nucleotide sequence of the coding region of the thymidine kinase gene from each of three mutant strains of herpes simplex virus type 1 and from the parental strain, SC16, has been determined. The mutants were known to express thymidine kinase enzymes with distinct substrate binding properties. Consideration of the lesions in the genes responsible for these altered biochemical properties. Co...
متن کاملStudy of Organic Solvent Tolerance and Increased Antibiotic Resistance Properties in E. coli gyrA Mutants
Ciprofloxacin is one of the most widely used antibiotics for the treatment of several infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, like E. coli. Changes in gyrA, encoding GyrA subunit of DNA gyrase, cause the resistance to ciprofloxacin. Some ciprofloxacin resistant gyrA mutants acquired constitutive expression of marRAB operon due to the gaining mutations in marR, a repressor of this operon...
