callus quantitative real-time PCR enzyme expression analysis in calli from cultures grown in different media. Transcript level of callus tissues grown at 0.0052 mM and 0.0264 mM Se-enriched media is lower than that of the control callus. In contrast, a high level of Se (0.132 mM) in the medium causes an approximately 4.26times higher level of SMT transcript in callus than the control Astragalus chrysochlorus

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Astragalus chrysochlorus selenocysteine methyltransferase gene expression and antioxidant enzyme activities in Astragalus chrysochlorus are selenium-induced. Transcript level of callus tissues grown at 0.0052 mM and 0.0264 mM Se-enriched media is lower than that of the control callus. In contrast, a high level of Se (0.132 mM) in the medium causes an approximately 4.26times higher level of SMT transcript in callus than the control up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism an increase of SMT gene expression leads to a rise in APX and POX, but a suppression of CAT and GR enzymes activities in Astragalus chrysochlorus. Selenium might be involved in the antioxidant metabolism in Astragalus chrysochlorus Astragalus chrysochlorus
physiological function selenocysteine methyltransferase (SMT) is responsible for forming methylselenocysteine (MeSeCys) Astragalus chrysochlorus
