  1. 1. Influence of the light harvesting proteins Lhbc3 and Lhbc5 on photosynthesis of plants lacking Lhbc1 and Lhbc2.

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysiologisk botanik; Umeå universitet/Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC)

    Author : Hanhan Xia; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Photosynthesis is one of the most important biological processes on earth, producing carbohydrates and oxygen. The light is captured with the aid of light harvesting proteins. Light harvesting complex proteins in PSII are important both in light absorption and dynamic regulation. READ MORE

    Keywords : myrosinase; glucosinolate; ascorbic acid; arabidopsis thaliana; isothiocyanate;

    Abstract : Glucosinolates are sulphur and nitrogen containing secondary metabolites which are present in the order Brassicales. These compounds are hydrolysed by enzymes called myrosinases upon tissue damage and serve to protect plants against insects and pathogens. READ MORE

  5. 4. Rye cell wall β-glucosidase: subcloning, expression and purification of recombinant protein from E.coli

    University essay from Institutionen för livsvetenskaper

    Author : Nicolas Rochereau; [2007]
    Keywords : rye; defense system; β-glucosidase; subcloning; his-tag; thioredoxin-tag; E.coli; Ni-NTA; western blot;

    Abstract : Several plant defense systems consist of enzymes that act on glucosides and produce a toxic compound. In the intact plant tissue the substrate and enzyme are kept apart. The system studied here consists of the substrate 2-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-4-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one and the enzyme glucan 1,3-β-glucosidase in rye. READ MORE
