Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The effect of pH on the over-all reaction and analysis of the reaction products suggest that the glucosylation of the sterol has a pH optimum of 8 to 9, and the pH optimum for the acylated steryl glucoside is 6.5 to 7.5.
Abstract: Mitochondrial preparations from pea root (Pisum sativum L. var. Alaska) cauliflower inflorescence (Brassica cauliflora Gars.) and avocado inner mesocarp (Persea americana Mill. var. Fuerte), and chloroplast preparations from spinach leaf (Spinacia oleracea L. var. Bloomsdale) incorporate glucose into steryl glucoside and acylated steryl glucoside when either uridine diphosphate-glucose or uridine diphosphate-galactose is supplied as precursor. In the case of pea root mitochondria, galactosyl diglycerides are not formed from either nucleotide sugar. In the case of spinach chloroplasts only 3% of the metabolized uridine diphosphate-galactose is found as steryl glycosides. Time course experiments indicate that the steryl glucoside is the precursor of the acylated steryl glucoside. The effect of pH on the over-all reaction and analysis of the reaction products suggest that the glucosylation of the sterol has a pH optimum of 8 to 9, and the pH optimum for the acylation of the steryl glucoside is 6.5 to 7. The synthesis of steryl glucoside and acylated steryl glucoside, catalyzed by acetone powders of pea root mitochondria, is stimuated by added sitosterol and stigmasterol.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Roots and shoots excised from sorghum seedlings incorporated the label of p -hydroxymandelonitrile-1- 14 C but not the label into the cyanogenic glucoside, dhurrin, but Tyrosine-U- 14C significantly labelled the glucosides only in shoots.

TL;DR: A new cyanogenic glucoside, triglochinin ( O -[β- d -glucopyranosyl]-1-cyano-1-hydroxy-4,5-dicarboxy-1,3-pentadiene), was isolated from the flowers of Triglochin maritimum L.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Nicotinic acid glucoside was incorporated into nicotine with the same efficiency as nicotinIC acid, but the rate of the incorporation was markedly reduced when unlabelled nicotinic Acid was also fed, suggesting that the glucosides is not involved in the direct route of nicotine biosynthesis.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is suggested that the integument is the primary site for the biosynthesis of the glucoside in the animal, as it is exerted in the biosynthetic chain leading from tyrosine to protocatechuic acid.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A new glucoside, purpurein, was isolated from fresh June bark of Salix purpurea as discussed by the authors, which is a diastereoisomer of grandidentin with p-coumaroyl substitution.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The structure of salicortin, an important component of the bark and leaves of all Populus and Salix species, was proved to be ω-(1-hydroxy-6-oxo-2-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid ester) by means of hydrogenolysis, acid and alkaline hydrolysis, and IR, NMR and mass spectra as discussed by the authors.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of simple phenolic glycosides on the activity of IAA-oxidase isolated from gherkin seedlings was studied in experimentsin vitro. But the effect was limited to the case when β-glycosidase was present: the phenols released from their bound form increased or decreased the IAA level.
Abstract: The effect of phenols and simple phenolic glycosides on the activity of IAA-oxidase isolated from gherkin seedlings was studied in experimentsin vitro. Phenol stimulated the enzyme system activity, eugenol and quinol were proven as inhibitors. Simple phenolic glycosides (arbutin, gein and phenol glucoside) influenced IAA-oxidase activity only if β-glycosidase was present: rree phenols released from their bound form increased or decreased the IAA level. The potential fegulatory effect of simple phenolic glycosides on the IAA level in plants has been discussed; this effect is thought to be mediated by free phenols and by influence on the IAA-oxidase system.

This shows the flavanone nature of this substance [2].
