Pollen And Seed Morphology Of Velezia L. (Caryophyllaceae) Genus In Turkey, İlham Eröz Poyraz, Ebru Ataşlar

Turkish Journal of Botany

In this study, pollen and seed morphology of Velezia L. (Caryophyllaceae) species in Turkey were investigated by light and scanning electron microscopy. The genus is represented by 5 species in Turkey: V. tunicoides P.H.Davis, V. hispida Boiss., V. quadridentata Sibth. & Sm., V. pseudorigida Hub.-Mor. and V. rigida L. Endemism ratio of the genus is 60%, which shows that Turkey is the gene center for this genus. The pollen grains of Velezia species are radially symmetrical and isopolar, oblate-spheroidal, operculate, and polypantoporate, pores with conical spinules on operculum. Pollen ornamentation, pore numbers, exine thickness, pore diameter, operculum ornamentation, and spinule …

Re-Evaluated Conservation Status Of Salvia (Sage) In Turkey I: The Mediterranean And The Aegean Geographic Regions, Ferhat Celep, Musa Doğan, Ahmet Kahraman Jan 2010

Re-Evaluated Conservation Status Of Salvia (Sage) In Turkey I: The Mediterranean And The Aegean Geographic Regions, Ferhat Celep, Musa Doğan, Ahmet Kahraman

Turkish Journal of Botany

The precise evaluation of the conservation status of endemic and rare species is necessary in order to prevent their extinction. According to our current taxonomic revision of Turkish Salvia L., the Mediterranean and Aegean geographic regions of Turkey have 60 taxa, 32 of which are endemic (mainly local endemics), 5 of which are non-endemic rare, and the remaining 23 taxa are widely distributed. The rate of endemism is 53% in the area. The destruction of habitat through human encroachment such as urbanisation, land clearing, overgrazing, pollution, and road and dam constructions is the principal threat in the study area. Based …

Cellular Distribution Of Activity For Three Enzymes With Maltose Binding Protein As Fusion Partner And The Structural Implications, Özde F. Ütkür, Berna Sariyar Akbulut, Amable Hortaçsu

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The bacterial SEC pathway is commonly used for secretion of heterologous proteins in E. coli by fusing them to transported proteins to facilitate downstream processing. While some proteins are translocated very efficiently, some reside in the cytoplasm. In this work, maltose binding protein (MBP) was fused to 3 cytoplamic enzymes from Thermus thermophilus (serine protease, 251 residues; glucose isomerase, 381 residues; pullulanase, 718 residues) to study the protein transport from the cytoplasm by quantifying the distribution of activities in different cellular compartments. Pullulanase activity was harvested exclusively in the periplasm; however, glucose isomerase activity was harvested exclusively in the cytoplasm. …

Template Synthesis And Characterization Of 16-Membered Octaazamacrocyclic Complexes: A Photoelectron Spectroscopic Study, Abul Kalam, Vishnu Tripathi, Shekhar Srivastava, Yogesh Pandey, Anil Kumar, Alok Gupta, Sharat Srivastava, Ankoor Purohit

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A novel series of complexes of the type [MLX_2] where M= Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II); X= C^- or NO_3^- were synthesized by template condensation of hydrazine hydrate, acetaldehyde, 2,4-pentanedione, and thiocarbohydrazide in the presence of divalent metal salt in methanolic solution. The complexes were characterized with the help of elemental analysis, conductance measurements, magnetic measurements, electronic, NMR, XPS, and infrared and far infrared spectral studies. Electronic spectra along with magnetic moments suggest 6-coordinated octahedral geometry for these complexes. The low value of molar conductance indicates them to be non-electrolytes.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Three acylhydrazone-based compounds were designed as novel neutral sensors for anions, and synthesized by simple steps in good yields. Their anion recognition properties were studied by UV-vis and ^1H-NMR spectroscopy.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Biotransformation of danazol (17\beta-hydroxy-17\alpha-pregna-2,4-dien-20-yno-[2,3-d] isoxazole) (1) on fermentation with Fusarium solani yielded 17\beta-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)-17\alpha -pregn-4-en-20-yn-3-one (2) and 17\beta -hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)-17\alpha-pregna-1,4-dien-20-yn-3-one (3), while the fermentation of 1 with Gibberella fujikuorii yielded compound 2 only. The structures of these compounds were deduced on the basis of modern spectroscopic techniques. Prolyl endopeptidase inhibition activities of danazol (1) and its transformed products 2 and 3 are also studied.
