Mutant strains of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942 that are resistant to the herbicides norflurazon and fluridone were analyzed. These herbicides inhibit phytoene desaturase, a key enzyme in the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway. In three mutants the phenotype was related to specific point mutations in pds, the gene encoding phytoene desaturase. Since the resistance was manifested in...
خاموشی ژن تحت القای ویروس (vigs) virus-induced gene silencing فناوری است که از مکانیسم دفاعی ضد ویروسی برای خاموشی ژن در سطح rna استفاده می کند. vigs فرآیند خاموشی rna را از طریق آلوده سازی گیاه با ویروس های نوترکیب حامل ژن هدف بکار می اندازد و mrna های میزبانی مشابه را هدف قرار می دهد. هدف از این مطالعه بررسی امکان خاموش سازی ژن (pds) phytoene desaturase در گوجه فرنگی( lycopersicum esculentum ...
Three different phytoene desaturase genes, from Rhodobacter capsulatus, Erwinia uredovora, and Synechococcus PCC 7942, have been functionally complemented with a gene construct from E. uredovora which encodes all enzymes responsible for formation of 15-cis phytoene in Escherichia coli. As indicated by the contrasting reaction products detected in the pigmented E. coli cells after co-transformat...
A non-radioactive cell-free assay was developed to quantitatively determine inhibition of plant-type phytoene desaturase by bleaching herbicides. An active desaturase was prepared from an appropriately cloned E. coli transformant. Another E. coli transformant was used to produce the required phytoene. Phytofluene and zeta-carotene, the products of the desaturase reaction, were either determined...
The phytoene-related desaturases are the key enzymes in the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway. The gene encoding phytoene desaturase in the deinoxanthin synthesis pathway of Deinococcus radiodurans was identified and characterized. Two putative phytoene desaturase homologues (DR0861 and DR0810) were identified by analysis of conserved amino acid regions, and the former displayed the highest ident...
The green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii provides a tractable genetic model to study herbicide mode of action using forward genetics. The herbicide norflurazon inhibits phytoene desaturase, which is required for carotenoid synthesis. Locating amino acid substitutions in mutant phytoene desaturases conferring norflurazon resistance provides a genetic approach to map the herbicide binding site. W...
Astaxanthin is a high-value carotenoid which is used as a pigmentation source in fish aquaculture. Additionally, a beneficial role of astaxanthin as a food supplement for humans has been suggested. The unicellular alga Haematococcus pluvialis is a suitable biological source for astaxanthin production. In the context of the strong biotechnological relevance of H. pluvialis, we developed a geneti...
Pepper leaves treated with the herbicide J852 show an accumulation of phytoene and zeta-carotene, whereas treatment with norflurazon led to an accumulation of only phytoene. The effects of these herbicides were examined in vitro after the expression of carotenoid desaturases in Escherichia coli. Whereas norflurazon is a potent inhibitor of phytoene desaturase (PDS) (I(50) = 0.12 microM) but not...
Carotenoids are constituents of the photosynthetic apparatus and essential for plant survival because of their involvement in protection of chlorophylls against photooxidation. Certain classes of herbicides are interfering with carotenoid biosynthesis leading to pigment destruction and a bleached plant phenotype. One important target site for bleaching herbicides is the enzyme phytoene desatura...
