capsicum pubescens/phosphatase

The DING protein family consists of proteins of great biological importance due to their ability to inhibit carcinogenic cell growth. A DING peptide with Mr ∼7.57 kDa and pI ∼5.06 was detected in G10P1.7.57, a protein fraction from Capsicum chinense Jacq. seeds. Amino acid sequencing of the peptide

This study sought to characterize the distribution of phenols and antioxidant activities in hot short pepper (Capsicum frutescens var. abbreviatum) and their inhibition of cyclophosphamide-induced oxidative stress in rat's brain. The total phenol content and antioxidant activities of pepper flesh

Obesity is a notable risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes, augmenting the concern of obese diabetes (ObD). Anti-obesity and antioxidant effects of red pepper seeds extract (RPSE) have increased our expectations that RPSE would also improve the pathological phenotypes of obese diabetes.

Red pepper seed, a by-product of red pepper, has been reported to have antioxidant and antiobesity activities. However, its role in diabetes has not yet been highly investigated. Glucose homeostasis is mainly maintained by insulin, which suppresses glucose production in the liver and enhances

By using plastic sheet and nylon mesh to partition the root systems of maize and capsicum in a maize-capsicum intercropping system, this paper studied the relationships between soil biological factors and nutritive status in the intercropping system, with no partitioning and maize monoculture and

In an attempt to determine a cold defense mechanism in plants, we have attempted to characterize changes occurring in the expression of cold-regulated transcript levels in the hot pepper (Capsicum annum), using cDNA microarray analysis, combined with Northern blot analysis. After analysing a 3.1 K

Symptoms of water-soaked lesions and soft rot were first observed in June 2011 on bell pepper fruits (Capsicum annuum cv. Annuum) in the two main regions of pepper production in Malaysia (Cameron Highlands and Johor State). Economic losses exceeded 40% in severely infected fields and greenhouses

Rats were fed by stomach tube with 50 mg/kg B.W./day capsaicin (Sigma) or 0.5 gm/kg B.W./day capsicum fruit crude extract for 60 days. The influences of capsaicin or capsicum upon body weight, rectal temperature, food and water consumptions, haematological parameters, plasma chemistry, urine

The measurement of gene expression can provide important information about gene function and the molecular basis for developmental processes. We analyzed the transcriptomes at three different developmental stages of pepper flower [sporogenous cell division, stage (B1); pollen mother cell meiosis,

A novel hypersensitive resistance (HR) in Capsicum baccatum var. pendulum against the bacterial spot of pepper pathogen, Xanthomonas gardneri, was introgressed into C. annuum cv. Early Calwonder (ECW) to create the near-isogenic line designated as ECW-70R. A corresponding avirulence gene avrBs7, in
