glucuronic acid/옥수수

The metabolism of myo-inositol-2-(14)C, d-glucuronate-1-(14)C, d-glucuronate-6-(14)C, and l-methionine-methyl-(14)C to cell wall polysaccharides was investigated in excised root-tips of 3 day old Zea mays seedlings. From myo-inositol, about one-half of incorporated label was recovered in ethanol

A new category of beta-(1----4)-xylan xylanohydrolases that exhibit a specific capacity to hydrolyze glucuronoxylans was characterized using heteroxylans prepared from Vigna (Vigna angularis Ohwi et Ohashi cv. Takara) and maize (Zea mays L.) cell walls together with appropriate derivatives as

The structure of the arabinogalactan obtained from the buffer-homogenate of Zea mays L. (hybrid B73 x Mo17) shoots has been studied. The purified polysaccharide was investigated by methylation analysis before and after controlled acid hydrolysis. Arabinogalactan-1 consists of arabinose, galactose,

A non-reducing trisaccharide, alpha-D-mannopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-alpha-D-glucuronopyranosyl-(1 --> 2)-myo-inositol (MGI) accumulated in the spent medium of cell-suspension cultures of 'Paul's Scarlet' rose (Rosa sp.) predominantly during the period of rapid cell growth. This trisaccharide was also

A mutant strain of the bacterium Pseudomonas sp. ATCC 31461 that exhibited elevated production of the polysaccharide gellan on glucose or corn syrup as a carbon source was isolated. Gellan production by the mutant strain was about twofold higher than its parent strain on glucose or corn syrup after

The secreted slime from root cap cells of corn (Zea mays, cv. SX-17) was studied. Production of slime by excised root tips is stimulated by the addition of 40 mM sucrose or fucose and half-strength Hoagland's solution to the incubation medium. Secreted slime was recovered from aqueous solution by

Plant roots exude viscous polysaccharides, called mucilage. One of the suggested roles of mucilage is immobilization of toxic metal cations, including aluminum (Al), in the rhizosphere. Mucilage exuded from roots of Melastoma malabathricum (Al accumulator) was characterized in comparison with that

The structure of a glucuronoarabinoxylan in Zea mays L. (hybrid B73 x Mo17) shoot cell walls has been studied. The water-insoluble fraction of Zea shoot cell walls, pretreated with purified Bacillus subtilis (1 --> 3), (1 --> 4)-beta-d-glucan 4-glucanohydrolase, was treated with purified B. subtilis

1,4-Phenylenebis(methylene)selenocyanate (p-XSC) inhibits chemically induced tumors in several laboratory animal models. To understand its mode of action, we synthesized p-[14C]XSC, examined its excretion pattern in female CD rats and also the nature of its metabolites. p-[14C]XSC was synthesized
