Identification of essential amino acid residues in a sterol 8,7-isomerase from Zea mays reveals functional homology and diversity with the isomerases of animal and fungal origin.

A putative 8,7SI (sterol 8,7-isomerase) from Zea mays, termed Zm8,7SI, has been isolated from an EST (expressed sequence tag) library and subcloned into the yeast erg2 mutant lacking 8,7SI activity. Zm8,7SI restored endogenous ergosterol synthesis. An in vitro enzymatic assay in the corresponding

Toxic interactions between fungicides that inhibit ergosterol biosynthesis and phosphorothioate insecticides in the male rat and bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus).

The potential for toxic interactions between ergosterol biosynthesis-inhibiting fungicides (EBIFs), used in U.S. agriculture or clinically, and phosphorothioate insecticides was assessed in adult male rats and adult male bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) by measuring inhibition of plasma butyryl

Characterization of Zea mays endosperm C-24 sterol methyltransferase: one of two types of sterol methyltransferase in higher plants.

We report the characterization of a higher-plant C-24 sterol methyltransferase by yeast complementation. A Zea mays endosperm expressed sequence tag (EST) was identified which, upon complete sequencing, showed 46% identity to the yeast C-24 methyltransferase gene (ERG6) and 75% and 37% amino acid

The study of interactive effects of pollutants: a biomarker approach.

Only registered users can translate articles

Biochemical biomarkers, such as inhibition of serum butyryl cholinesterase (BuChE) and brain acetyl cholinesterase (AChE), have been useful in studies of interactive effects of pesticides in birds. Examples of interactions due to increased activation or decreased detoxication are reviewed. Studies

Kinetics of fumonisin B₁ formation in maize ears inoculated with Fusarium verticillioides.

Only registered users can translate articles

The kinetics of fumonisin B₁ (FB₁) biosynthesis have been examined in ears of four botanical varieties Zea mays var. indentata, Zea mays var. indurata, Zea mays var. saccharata and Zea mays var. everta inoculated with F. verticillioides isolates at silking stage. The level of mycotoxin accumulated

Fungal growth and fusarium mycotoxin content in isogenic traditional maize and genetically modified maize grown in France and Spain.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fungi of the genus Fusarium are common fungal contaminants of maize and are also known to produce mycotoxins. Maize that has been genetically modified to express a Bt endotoxin has been used to study the effect of insect resistance on fungal infection of maize grains by Fusarium species and their

A comparative study to evaluate natural attenuation, mycoaugmentation, phytoremediation, and microbial-assisted phytoremediation strategies for the bioremediation of an aged PAH-polluted soil.

Only registered users can translate articles

Biological treatments are considered an environmentally option to clean-up polluted soil with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). A pot experiment was conducted to comparatively evaluate four different strategies, including natural attenuation (NA), mycoaugmentation (M) by using Crucibulum
