INDOLE-3-ACETYLffl19-INOSITOL HYDROLASE _ FROM VEGETATIVE TISSUE OF ZEA MAYS L. «j’g/ //' By Prudence J. Hall The presence of conjugates of the plant growth hormone indole-3- acetic acid (IAA) in vegetative tissue of plants in excess of the free acid is postulated to play a role in maintenance of endogenous hormone levels. In shoots of Zea mays L. seedlings, esters of IAA predominate and it is believed that these esters are enzymatically hydrolyzed to provide free IAA to the growing shoot. One ester has been isolated from corn shoots and was identified as indole-3-acetylgmyQ-inositol (IAInos). This dissertation describes the partial purification and characterization of an enzyme from corn shoots which hydrolyzes myo—inositol esters of IAA. The enzyme was partially purified by column chromatography using abaminohexyl agarose, hydroxylapatite, and Sephadex 6-100. In addition to the hydrolysis of IAInos, the enzyme preparation hydrolyzed the methyl esters of IAA and naphthyleneacetic acid, and the synthetic ester, a-naphthyl acetate. The rate of enzymatic hydrolysis was unaffected by added cofactors, sulfhydryl reagents, and metal cations, except for Mn2+which was somewhat inhibitory. Glycerol appeared to inhibit the appearance of free IAA, but other experiments demonstrated the possibility of a transesterification reaction. The hydrolysis of IAInos can be demonstrated in extracts from seeds and roots in addition to shoots. Additional data is presented Prudence J. Hall demonstrating the localization of enzymatic activity in the coleoptilar portion of the shoot. A calculation based on published data showed that the relative amount of esterified IAA in coleoptiles as opposed to mesocotyls parallels the distribution of enzymatic activty. IAA esterified to myg-inositol is present in substrate preparations as chemically and biologically resolvable isomers. Examination of substrate in reaction mixtures before and after enzymatic hydrolysis demonstrated that the chemically resolvable isomers disappeared at different rates. This leads to the suggestion that the endogenous rate of hydrolysis of IAInos is controlled in part by the abundance of some isomers relative to others. While the presence of hormone conjugates in plant tissues is recog- nized, and many studies have been published on their characterization and synthesis, the data presented in this dissertation constitutes the first report of an enzyme hydrolyzing a conjugate of IAA.

Jones, Professor of Botany, Oberlin College and to Rich, Ethan, Eric and Kitty 11 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to acknowledge the assistance of the members of my guidance committee, Norman Good, Derek Lamport and William Wells. I have appreciated their comments and advice. The guidance, encouragement and support of my major professor, Robert S. Bandurski, is gratefully acknowledged. It has been a priviledge to work in his laboratory. The interest and support of all those people in Dr. Bandurski's laboratory in the years I have been there - especially Aga Schulze, Jerry Cohen, Volker Magnus, Bill Pengelly and John Chisnell, must be acknowledged. Their friendship and their willingness to share their ideas have been most appreciated. I also acknowledge the support and encouragement of my husband and sons. They have encouraged me throughout my graduate studies and have helped out in every way.

Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date tfew '??7 DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT Sinapine is a bitter phenolic choline ester that is ubiquitous in crucifer seeds. It occupies about 1-4% of the dry matter of rapeseed. Elimination of sinapine from the seeds would improve the flavor, palatability and nutritional properties of rapeseed meal for its utilization as supplemental protein source for animal feed. UDP-glucose.sinapic acid glucosyltransferase (SGT; EC 2.4.1.120) is a key enzyme involved in biosynthesis of both sinapine in seed and sinapoylmalate in vegetative tissues of many members of Brassicaceae. Both esters are strongly UV-absorbing but their physiological functions in plants are unknown.

Read Full License Page 1/25 Abstract Background The GDSL esterase and lipase families play important roles in abiotic stress, pathogen defense, seed development and lipid metabolism. Identifying the lipase activity of a putative GDSL lipase is necessary to determine its function. Systematic analysis of the GDSL gene family is still lacking in Citrullus lanatus. Results In this study, we identied 65 watermelon GDSL-type esterase/lipase genes and divided these genes into 6 clades based on phylogeny. The phylogenetic relationship of watermelon GDSL genes compared with Arabidopsis thaliana GDSL esterases/lipases was also determined, and these genes were divided into four groups related to morphological development, abiotic stress response, pathogen defense, and secondary metabolism. The chromosomal location of these genes revealed that they are distributed unevenly across all 11 watermelon chromosomes. Analysis of duplication events suggested that segmental duplication and tandem duplication were the major driving forces of GDSL family evolution.

    TOWSON UNIVERSITY OFFICE OF GRADUATE STUDIES BIOINFORMATICS TOOLS AND ANALYSIS TO IDENTIFY CANDIDATE LETHAL GENES IN ROOT-KNOT NEMATODE (RKN) AND ITS COMPARISON WITH SOYBEAN CYST NEMATODE (SCN) INFECTION IN SOYBEAN By Ahmed I. Ismail A dissertation in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Doctor of Science in Information Technology. Department of Computer and Information Science Towson University Baltimore, MD 21252 August 2013 ii iii Acknowledgment I would never have been able to finish my dissertation without the guidance of my committee members, help from friends, and support from my family and wife. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Nadim Alkharouf, for his excellent guidance, caring, patience, and providing me with an excellent atmosphere for doing research. I would like to thank Dr. Benjamin F. Matthews, for his assistance, guidance, patiently corrected my writing, and for providing me with the microarray data to be analyzed in our experiment. Special thanks go to Dr. Hammel and Dr. Hong, who were willing to participate in my final defense committee and for their valuable discussions and accessibility. I would like to thank Omar Darwish, who as a good friend was always willing to help and give his best suggestions. It would have been a lonely lab without him. I would also like to thank my parents, younger brother, and younger sister. They were always supporting me during the long years of my education and encouraging me with their best wishes. Finally, I would like to thank my wife. She was always there cheering me up and stood by me through the good times and bad.

  • Sinapine Esterase Ü. Specificity and Change of Sinapine Esterase Activity During Germination of Raphanus Sativus
    Sinapine Esterase ü . Specificity and Change of Sinapine Esterase Activity During Germination of Raphanus sativus Dieter Strack, Gerhild Nurmann, and Gesine Sachs Botanisches Institut der Universität zu Köln, Gyrhofstr. 15, D-5000 Köln 41 Z. Naturforsch. 35 c, 963-966 (1980); received September 3,1980 Raphanus, Brassicaceae, Esterase, Sinapine, Choline Esters Following a 20 to 24 h lag-phase after sowing, the onset of both rapid degradation of sinapine (sinapolycholine) and rapid increase in sinapine esterase activity in cotyledons of Raphanus sativus was observed. After 2 days of germination maximal enzyme activity was reached and declined in subsequent germination stages as rapidly as it had appeared. Esterases, active against indophenyl acetate, showed highest activity in dry seeds, declining to more than 50% between the 1st and 3rd day of germination. Starch gel electrophoresis showed that all protein extracts contained a multiplicity of esterases, active against ar-naphthyl acetate. When gels were incubated with sinapine, one new band appeared, stainable with diazotized /»-nitroaniline. This band represents sinapine esterase activity. Tests for substrate specificity towards cinnamic acid choline esters showed highest enzyme activity with sinapine. Studies on the occurrence of sinapine esterase in other Brassicaceae revealed that the enzyme activity coincides with the occurrence and degradation of sinapine. Introduction Materials and Methods Most seeds of the Brassicaceae contain sinapine Plant material and culture conditions (sinapoylcholine) [1]. It was shown for Sinapis alba Seeds o f Raphanus sativus L. var. sativus, cv. Saxa that this compound is accumulated during the main were purchased from Zwaan u. Co’s u.
