EST analysis reveals putative genes involved in glycyrrhizin biosynthesis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Glycyrrhiza uralensis is one of the most popular medicinal plants in the world and is also widely used in the flavoring of food and tobacco. Due to limited genomic and transcriptomic data, the biosynthetic pathway of glycyrrhizin, the major bioactive compound in G. uralensis, is currently

The antioxidative activity of traditional Japanese herbs.

The objective of this research was to examine the radical scavenging activity of traditional Japanese herbs. Samples used in the experiments were gennoshoko (Geranium nepalense var. thunbergii), yomogi (Artemisia vulgaris var.indica), senburi (Swertia japonica), iwa-tobacco (Conandron ramondioides),

Chemical composition of essential oils from the underground parts of Glycyrrhiza echinata L. accessions growing wild in Northern Iran.

Glycyrrhiza echinata L. is a perennial plant of considerable commercial importance in medicine, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and tobacco industries and the production of food additives as flavoring and sweetening agent. This study, variation on composition and yield of essential oil from the

Molecular cloning and characterization of two cDNAs for Glycyrrhiza glabra squalene synthase.

Only registered users can translate articles

Two cDNAs (GgSQS1 and GgSQS2) encoding squalene synthase have been isolated from licorice, Glycyrrhiza glabra L., and characterized. The deduced amino acid sequence of GgSQS1 was 88%, 81%, 78%, 45-44%, and 45-41% identical to those of GgSQS2, Nicotiana, Arabidopsis, mammal and yeast squalene

Molecular cloning and functional expression of cDNAs for Glycyrrhiza glabra squalene synthase.

Only registered users can translate articles

We have isolated two cDNAs (GgSQS1 and GgSQS2) encoding squalene synthase of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. by cross-hybridization with that of Arabidopsis thaliana squalene synthase under conditions of low stringency. Their nucleotide sequences contained an open reading frame for a polypeptide of 413 amino

Activation of rapid signaling pathways and the subsequent transcriptional regulation for the proliferation of breast cancer MCF-7 cells by the treatment with an extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra root.

Only registered users can translate articles

Glycyrrhiza glabra root is one of the common traditional Chinese medicines and used as flavoring and sweetening agents for tobaccos, chewing gums, candies, toothpaste and beverages. While glycyrrhizin is one of the main components in the extract of G. glabra root and has been characterized, the

Selection of Reference Genes for qRT-PCR Analysis in Medicinal Plant Glycyrrhiza under Abiotic Stresses and Hormonal Treatments

Only registered users can translate articles

Best known as licorice, Glycyrrhiza Linn., a genus of herbaceous perennial legume, has been used as a traditional herbal medicine in Asia and a flavoring agent for tobacco and food industry in Europe and America. Abiotic stresses and hormonal treatments can significantly impact the

Risk and safety assessment on the consumption of Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza sp.), its extract and powder as a food ingredient, with emphasis on the pharmacology and toxicology of glycyrrhizin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Licorice (or 'liquorice') is a plant of ancient origin and steeped in history. Licorice extracts and its principle component, glycyrrhizin, have extensive use in foods, tobacco and in both traditional and herbal medicine. As a result, there is a high level of use of licorice and glycyrrhizin in the

Tissue-specific and stress-enhancing expression of the TR promoter for mannopine synthase in transgenic medicinal plants.

Only registered users can translate articles

Transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisher) and foxglove (Digitalis purpurea L.) were obtained with binary vector systems based on a disarmed Agrobacterium tumefaciens and on a virulent A. rhizogenes. The chimeric neomycin phosphotransferase II (NPT-II) gene
