canavalia ensiformis/ニコチン

Jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis) is a valuable green manure and cover-crop species. In late summer of 2002, jack bean plants showing severe stunting, leaf mosaic, mottling, distortion, and general yellowing were observed in fields located in Maracay, Aragua State, Venezuela. Sap from symptomatic

Urease activity of tobacco XD cells (1U cells) had undergone a 4-fold increase (4U cells) during a year of growth on urea (Skokut and Filner 1980 Plant Phvsiol 65: 995-1003). A clone of 4U cells gave rise to 12U cells during another year of growth on urea. The doubling time of 12U cells on urea is

Tobacco plants were transformed with gene constructs encoding prepro-ConBr (Canavalia brasiliensis lectin). Transgenic plants confirmed by PCR expressed the recombinant protein as revealed by Western blot. However, the apparent molecular mass of the recombinant polypeptide (ca. 34 kDa) was higher

A number of A/T-rich sequences and a CATGCAT/A sequence are contained in the 5'-upstream regions of the genes encoding concanavalin A (Con A) and canavalin, two major seed storage proteins of Canavalia gladiata D.C. To study the role of these sequences in the seed-specific gene expression, we

P-proteins are structural phloem proteins discussed to be involved in the rapid sealing of injured sieve elements. P-proteins are found in all dicotyledonous and some monocotyledonous plants, but additional crystalloid P-proteins, known as forisomes, have evolved solely in the Fabaceae. Both types

Urease from Canavalia ensiformis seeds was the first enzyme ever to be crystallized, in 1926. These proteins, found in plants, bacteria and fungi, present different biological properties including catalytic hydrolysis of urea, and also enzyme-independent activities, such as induction of exocytosis,

Antibodies were raised against carrot (Daucus carota) cell wall beta-fructosidase that was either in a native configuration (this serum is called anti-betaF(1)) or chemically deglycosylated (anti-betaF(2)). The two antisera had completely different specificities when tested by immunoblotting. The

OBJECTIVE H. pylori infection is an important etiologic impetus usually leading to gastric disease and urease enzyme is the most crucial role is to protect the bacteria in the acidic environment of the stomach. Then urease inhibitors would increase sensitivity of the bacteria in acidic

Concanavalin A (ConA) is a well characterized and extensively used lectin accumulated in the protein bodies of jack bean cotyledons. ConA is synthesized as an inactive precursor proConA. The maturation of inactive proConA into biologically active ConA is a complex process including the removal of an

Macromolecular crystal growth experiments, using satellite tobacco mosaic virus (STMV) and canavalin from jack beans as samples, were conducted on a US Space Shuttle mission designated International Microgravity Laboratory--1 (IML-1), flown January 22-29, 1992. Parallel experiments using identical

Differential mobility analysis (DMA) is a technique suited for size analysis as well as preparative collection of airborne nanosized airborne particles. In the recent decade, the analysis of intact viruses, proteins, DNA fragments, polymers, and inorganic nanoparticles was possible when combining
