palmitoleic acid/タバコ属

Palmitoleic acid (16:1Δ⁹) is one kind of ω-7 fatty acids (ω-7 FAs) widely used in food, nutraceutical and industry. However, such high-valued ω-7 FA only has a trace level in mature seeds of cotton and other common oil crops. We found that palmitoleic acid (>10.58 Mol%) was specially

The stress induced by allelochemicals present in stem aqueous extract (SAE) of Nicotiana plumbaginifolia on alterations in growth, ultrastructure on Cassia tora L., and mitotic changes on Allium cepa L. were inspected. Application of SAE at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 2, and 4%) expressively

To examine the processes of plant cytoplasmic fatty acid desaturation and glycerolipid biosynthesis, the protein coding sequence of the endoplasmic reticulum cytochrome b(5)-dependent, Delta-9 fatty acid desaturase gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was introduced into Nicotiana tabacum via

Nicotiana tabacum tissue was transformed with a rat stearyl-CoA desaturase gene. Gas chromatographic analysis showed an increase in monounsaturated 16 and 18 carbon fatty acids in selected transformed calli and leaves. Fractionation of lipid classes indicated that palmitoleic acid was found in the

Palmitoleic acid (16:1delta9), an unusual monounsaturated fatty acid, is highly valued for human nutrition, medication and industry. Plant oils containing large amounts of palmitoleic acid are the ideal resource for biodiesel production. To increase accumulation of palmitoleic acid in plant tissues,

Stearoyl-ACP Δ⁹ desaturase (SAD) catalyzes the synthesis of monounsaturated oleic acid or palmitoleic acid in plastids. SAD is the key enzyme to control the ratio of saturated fatty acids to unsaturated fatty acids in plant cells. In order to analyze the regulation mechanism of soybean oleic acid
