Conteúdo: | Lipoxygenases (E.C. 1.13.11.12) catalyze the peroxidation of compounds that possess a cis, cis-1,4-pentadiene structure. Their principal substrates in higher plants are the di- and tri-unsaturated fatty acids, linoleic (C18:2) and linolenic (C18:3) acids. Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are also known to catalyze the cooxidation of chlorophylls and carotenoids (Axelrod et al, 1987; Vick and Zimmermann, 1987). LOXs are apparently ubiquitous in higher plants and animals and are often (or always?) present as multiple forms or isozymes (Axelrod et al, 1981; Mack et al, 1987; Schewe et al, 1986). Loxs have been of interest because of their importance in flavor and aroma biogenesis and the importance of LOX metabolites in mammalian physiology (Hatanaka et al, 1987; Vick and Zimmerman, 1987; Parker, 1987). In this study we report the expression and some properties of different LOX isozymes in various tissues of mutant and wild type soybean lines.
