  • Han, S.E.; Seo, Y.S.; Kim, D.; Sung, S.K.; Kim, W.T.
    Expression of MdCAS1 and MdCAS2, encoding apple beta-cyanoalanine synthase homologs, is concomitantly induced during ripening and implicates MdCASs in the possible role of the cyanide detoxification in Fuji apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) fruits (2007), Plant Cell Rep., 26, 1321-1331.

Activating Compound

EC Number Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
4.4.1.9 ethylene

Malus domestica
4.4.1.9 additional information CAS1 and CAS2 mRNAs are coordinately induced during the ripening process of apple fruits, enzyme activity is also enhanced as the fruit ripens, although this increase is not as dramatic as the mRNA induction pattern, genes also activated effectively by mechanical wounding Malus domestica

Application

EC Number Application Comment Organism
4.4.1.9 agriculture CAS1 and CAS2 encode Fuji apple beta-CAS homologs, overall nucleotide sequence identity is 89%, whereas coding regions are 93% identical at the nucleotide level and 94% identical at the amino acid level, CAS may play a role in cyanide detoxification in ripening apple fruits Malus domestica
