چکیده

A citrus cDNA encoding a class II acidic chitinase was isolated from a nonembryogenic cell line of sweet orange using the tobacco cDNA clone PROB3. Northern blot analysis revealed that the corresponding mRNA is expressed in young, green bark but not in leaves, roots, or flavedo.

Induced Acidic chitinase Expression and Scab-Resistant in Wheat Under Field Condition

Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium graminearum is responsible for billions of dollars in agriculture losses. The goal of the present study was evaluation the expression of acidic chitinase, one of PR proteins, in wheat defense response against different FHB induced treatments in 'Falat' as a highly susceptible and 'Sumai3' as a tolerant cultivar. These treatments contained fungi extr...

Cloning of a class III acidic chitinase from chickpea.

From chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), one ,f3-1,3-glucanase and two chitinases were purified and characterized (Vogelsang and Barz, 1993). The P-l,S-glucanase and one chitinase each with a basic isoelectric point (class I) were shown to be localized in vacuoles, whereas the second class 111 acidic chitinase revealed an extracellular localization (Mackenbrock et al., 1992). Here we report on the c...

Cloning , Expression , and Characterization f an from Leucaena leucocephala de Wit Antifungal Chitinase JSist

Chitinase cDNAs from Leucaena leucocephala seed]ings were cloned by PCR amplification with degenerate primers based on conseryed class I chitinase sequences and cDNA library screening. Two closely related chitinase cDNAs were sequenced and inferred to encode precursor proteins of 323 (KBI) and 326 (KB2) amino acids. Expression of the KB2 chitinase from a pET32a plasmid in Origami (DE3) Escheric...

Cloning and Characterization of cbhII Gene fromTrichoderma parceramosum and Its Expressionin Pichia pastoris

The genomic and cDNA clones encoding cellobiohydrolase II (CBHII) have been isolated and sequenced from a native Iranian isolate of Trichoderma parceramosum, a high cellulolytic enzymes producer isolate. This represents the first report of cbhII gene from this organism. Comparison of genomic and cDNA sequences indicates this gene contains three short introns and also an open reading frame codin...

Antifungal Activity of Heterologous Expressed Chitinase 42 (Chit42) from Trichoderma atroviride PTCC5220

The cDNA from the mycoparasitic fungus Trichoderma atroviride PTCC5220 encoding a 42 kDa chitinase (Chit42) was isolated. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA fragment as having a 1263 bp open reading frame that encodes a 421 amino acid polypeptide, and a high homology was found withother reported Chit42 belonging to the Trichoderma sp. The 22 amino acid N-terminal sequence is a putative s...
