PHOTOTROPISM IN PHYCOMYCES MUTANTS LACKING β-CAROTENE 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Abstract. β-carotene and riboflavin are considered as the major candidates for the photoreceptor for physiological responses to blue light in Phycomyces and a number of other organisms. Mutants of Phycomyces blocked in all six steps of the biosynthesis of β-carotene from phytoene contain no detectable β-carotene (less than 4 times 10-5 of wild-type amount) but exhibit phototropic responses identical to wild-type. Moreover, wild-type Phycomyces , while abundant in trans -β-carotene, contains no detectable cis -β-carotene, sometimes proposed as a photoreceptor candidate on the basis of the close similarity of the cis -species absorption spectrum in the near UV region to many action spectra for blue-light responses. These results indicate that β-carotene cannot be the photoreceptor for phototropism in Phycomyces. 相似文献

Traditional hydrodistillation (HD), supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), organic solvent extraction (SE), and water microwave assisted hydrodistillation (MAHD) techniques were compared and evaluated for their effectiveness in the isolation of rosemary essential oil. The microwave assisted hydrodistillation technique was optimized in terms of both delivered power and time duration. The extracts/distillates were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Microwave distillation, which exploits the physical action of microwaves on plants, showed a series of advantages over the other approaches: low cost, use of water in sample pre-treatment step, greatly reduced isolation time, and attainment of high quality essential oil distillate. Moreover, the absence of environmental impact of this innovative technique was also emphasized. 相似文献

The accurate, experimental charge density distribution, ρ( r ), of the potent antimalarial drug dihydroartemisinin (DHA) has been derived for the first time from single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction data at T=100(2) K. Gas‐phase and solid‐state DFT simulations have also been performed to provide a firm basis of comparison with experimental results. The quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) has been employed to analyse the ρ( r ) scalar field, with the aim of classifying and quantifying the key real‐space elements responsible for the known pharmacophoric features of DHA. From the conformational perspective, the bicyclo[3.2.2]nonane system fixes the three‐dimensional arrangement of the 1,2,4‐trioxane bearing the active O? O redox centre. This is the most nucleophilic function in DHA and acts as an important CH???O acceptor. On the contrary, the rest of the molecular backbone is almost neutral, in accordance with the lipophilic character of the compound. Another remarkable feature is the C? O bond length alternation along the O‐C‐O‐C polyether chain, due to correlations between pairs of adjacent C? O bonds. These bonding features have been related with possible reactivity routes of the α‐ and β‐DHA epimers, namely 1) the base‐catalysed hemiacetal breakdown and 2) the peroxide reduction. As a general conclusion, the base‐driven proton transfer has significant non‐local effects on the whole polyether chain, whereas DHA reduction is thermodynamically favourable and invariably leads to a significant weakening (or even breaking) of the O? O bond. The influence of the hemiacetal stereochemistry on the electronic properties of the system has also been considered. Such findings are discussed in the context of the known chemical reactivity of this class of important antimalarial drugs. 相似文献

The total charge density distribution rho(r) of the colossal magnetoresistive transition metal sulfide FeCr(2)S(4) was evaluated through a multipole formalism from a set of structure factors obtained both experimentally, by means of single crystal high-quality x-ray diffraction data collected at T=23 K, and theoretically, with an extended-basis unrestricted Hartree-Fock periodic calculation on the experimental geometry. A full topological analysis, followed by the calculation of local energy density values and net atomic charges, was performed using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules. The experimental and theoretical results were compared. Good agreement was found for the topological properties of the system, as well as for the atomic net charges and the nature of the chemical bonds. An analysis of the electron density rho(r), its Laplacian nabla(2)[rho(r)], and the total energy density H(r) at the bond critical points was employed to classify all the interactions that resulted as predominantly closed shell (ionic) in nature. The topological indicators of the bonded interactions for Fe are distinct from those for Cr. The Fe-S bond distances were found to be 0.145 A shorter than the ideal values computed on the basis of Shannon's crystal radii, much shorter than the Cr-S distances with respect to their ideal Shannon lengths. Concomitantly, rho(r) and |H(r)| at the bond critical points are greater for Fe-S interactions, indicating that the local concentration of charge density in the internuclear region is larger for the tetrahedrally coordinated iron than for the octahedrally coordinated chromium. The isosurface in the real space for nabla(2)[rho(r)]=0 was plotted for both iron and chromium, pointing out the local zones of valence shell charge concentration and relating them to the partial d-orbital occupancy of the two transition metal atoms. 相似文献

Flavonoids are a large class of naturally occurring aromatic secondary plant metabolites. They constitute one of the most characteristic classes found in nature and more than 4000 flavonoids have been identified and divided into several subclasses. Flavonoids have several effects on human health, mainly related to their antioxidant activity. As a result of the increased interest in the biologically active compounds in food, many research studies have investigated the detection and quantification of antioxidants. Citrus plants are of great interest since they accumulate large amounts of flavonoids and fruit and juices of these species are consumed in large quantities. Despite the extensive research performed on Citrus flavonoids, many compounds still remain unidentified. In this work, flavonoids of five citrus juices: lemon, grapefruit, bergamot, orange, and mandarin were analyzed by microHPLC coupled on-line with an MS detector equipped with an ESI source operating in negative mode. The use of microcolumn HPLC greatly enhanced detection performance. In total, 20 flavonoids of two different subclasses (flavanone and flavone glycosides) were identified with the help of retention data and MS spectral information. 相似文献

Understanding how spin information is transmitted from paramagnetic to non-magnetic centers is crucial in advanced materials research and calls for novel interpretive tools. Herein, we show that the spin density at a point may be seen as determined by a local source function for such density, operating at all other points of space. Integration of the local source over Bader''s quantum atoms measures their contribution in determining the spin polarization at any system''s location. Each contribution may be then conveniently decomposed in a magnetic term due to the magnetic natural orbital(s) density and in a reaction or relaxation term due to the remaining orbitals density. A simple test case, 3B1 water, is chosen to exemplify whether an atom or group of atoms concur or oppose the paramagnetic center in determining a given local spin polarization. Discriminating magnetic from reaction or relaxation contributions to such behaviour strongly enhances chemical insight, though care needs to be paid to the large sensitivity of the latter contributions to the level of the computational approach and to the difficulty of singling out the magnetic orbitals in the case of highly correlated systems. Comparison of source function atomic contributions to the spin density with those reconstructing the electron density at a system''s position, enlightens how the mechanisms which determine the two densities may in general differ and how diverse may be the role played by each system''s atom in determining each of the two densities. These mechanisms reflect the quite diverse portraits of the electron density and electron spin density Laplacians, hence the different local concentration/dilution of the total and (α–β) electron densities throughout the system. Being defined in terms of an observable, the source function for the spin density is also potentially amenable to experimental determination, as customarily performed for its electron density analogue. 相似文献

The advantages of using a narrow-bore column in headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatographic (HS-SPME-GC) analysis are investigated. An automated rapid HS-SPME-GC method for the determination of volatile compounds in a complex sample (bergamot essential oil) was developed. A low-capacity (7 microm) SPME fibre was employed, enabling a short equilibration time (15 min). The absorbed volatile compounds were then separated in 12.5 min on a 10 m x 0.1 mm I.D. capillary. The fast GC method was characterized by relatively moderate GC parameters (head pressure: 173 kPa; temperature program rate: 12 degrees C/min). The employment of the low-capacity fibre also suited the reduced sample capacity of the capillary employed, hence column overloading was avoided. Analytical repeatibility was determined in terms of retention times (maximum RSD: 0.32%) and peak areas (maximum RSD: 9.80%). The results obtained were compared to those derived from a conventional HS-SPME-GC (a 30 microm SPME fibre and 0.25 mm I.D. capillary were used) application on the same sample. In this respect, a great reduction of analytical time was obtained both with regard to the conventional SPME equilibration and GC run times, which both required 50 min. Peak resolution was altogether comparable in both applications. Although a slight loss in terms of sensitivity was observed in the rapid approach (generally within the 25-50% range), this did not impair the detection of all peaks of interest. Finally, the selectivities of the 30 and 7 microm fibres were evaluated and, as expected, these were in good agreement. 相似文献
