glucuronic acid/glycine max

Evidence is presented for the presence of a new lectin activity in soybean seeds [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] that has specificity towards the 4-O-methyl-D-glucurono-L-rhamnan exopolysaccharide produced by certain strains of Rhizobium japonicum. Bacterial agglutination and precipitin reactions

The study investigated the protective effects of kaempferol galactoside (KG) components in mice, which were separated from Jindai soybean leaves (JDL) and mainly composed by two kaempferol galactosides. Further, KG-related metabolites in serum of mice were identified by Tof-MS. Results showed that

The exact mechanism(s) of infection and symbiotic development between rhizobia and legumes is not yet known, but changes in rhizobial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) affect both infection and nodule development of the legume host. Early events in the symbiotic process between Bradyrhizobium japonicum and

CONCLUSIONS Chemical analyses and glycome profiling demonstrate differences in the structures of the xyloglucan, galactomannan, glucuronoxylan, and rhamnogalacturonan I isolated from soybean ( Glycine max ) roots and root hair cell walls. The root hair is a plant cell that extends only at its tip.

Hemicellulose is a major component of primary plant cell walls. Many of the glycosyl residues found in hemicellulose are derived from the sugar precursor UDP-glucuronic acid, which can be converted into UDP-arabinose, UDP-apiose, UDP-galacturonic acid, and UDP-xylose. The enzyme controlling the

We detected UDP-glucuronic acid:soyasapogenol glucuronosyltransferase (UGASGT) activity in the microsomal fraction from germinating soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) seed. A microsomal fraction was isolated from germinating soybean seed and treated with various detergents to solubilize the enzyme.

Phosphorus (P) is one the least available essential plant macronutrients in soils that is a major constraint on plant growth. Soybean (Glycine max L.) production is often limited due to low P availability. The better management of P deficiency requires improvement of soybean's P use
