Biosynthesis of malonate in roots of soybean seedlings.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many plants accumulate malonate, but it was shown earlier that malonate does not accumulate as a deadend product of metabolism in soybean (Glycine max v. Hodgson tissues. The metabolism of malonate in the soybean plant at the whole tissue and enzymic level was followed, and the pathway of malonate biosynthesis in young soybean root tissue was shown to be via acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase.

AMELIORATION OF NICKEL TOXICITY IN SOYBEAN PLANTS BY GIBBERELLIN AND ASCORBIC ACID
The interactive effects of nickel (Ni) and ascorbic acid (AsA) and gibberellin (GA3) on soybean seedlings (Glycine max L. cv. Union × Elf) were examined. Seven-day old hydroponically-grown seedlings were exposed to NiCl2, 6H2O (0.5 mM), either with or without AsA (1 mM) or GA3 (0.05 mM) or AsA (1 mM) plus GA3 (0.05 mM), for five days. Nickel toxicity symptoms, such as formation of reddish-brown...
متن کاملNaringenin Inhibits the Growth and Stimulates the Lignification of Soybean Root
The flavanone naringenin, an intermediate in flavonoid biosynthesis, was tested for its effect on root growth, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) and peroxidase (POD) activities, as well as phenolic compounds and lignin contents in soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) seedlings. Three-day-old seedlings were cultivated in half-strength Hoagland nutrient solution (pH 6.0), with or without 0.1 to 0.4 m...
متن کاملSoybean LEC2 Regulates Subsets of Genes Involved in Controlling the Biosynthesis and Catabolism of Seed Storage Substances and Seed Development
Soybean is an important oilseed crop and major dietary protein resource, yet the molecular processes and regulatory mechanisms involved in biosynthesis of seed storage substances are not fully understood. The B3 domain transcription factor (TF) LEC2 essentially regulates embryo development and seed maturation in other plants, but is not functionally characterized in soybean. Here, we characteri...
متن کاملThe Effects of Heavy Metals and Root Immersion on Isoflavonoid Metabolism in Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.).
Modest increases in the concentration of medicarpin, 6-fold in leaves and 4-fold in roots, were observed in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) seedlings treated with 1 mM metal salts for 72 h. However, medicarpin-3-O-glucoside-6"-O-malonate (MGM) and formononetin-7-O-glucoside-6"-O-malonate (FGM) levels were up to 50-fold lower in metal-treated compared to control roots. Approximately 10% of the "mis...
متن کاملIdentification of a Highly Specific Isoflavone 7-O-glucosyltransferase in the soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.).
Isoflavone conjugates [7-O-β-D-glucosides and 7-O-(6″-malonyl-β-D-glucosides) of daidzein and genistein] accumulate in soybean roots and serve as the stored precursors of isoflavones (aglycons), which play very important roles in the rhizobia-mediated nodulation of this plant. Thus far, the isoflavone 7-O-glucosyltransferase (GmIF7GT or GmUGT1) has been biochemically characterized and is believ...
