Disease relevance of Liliaceae

 

High impact information on Liliaceae

 

Chemical compound and disease context of Liliaceae

  • BACKGROUND: Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA), a mannose-specific lectin from snowdrop bulbs, is a tetrameric member of the family of Amaryllidaceae lectins that exhibit antiviral activity towards HIV [6].
 

Biological context of Liliaceae

  • DNA sequences of the rbcL gene were analyzed for 8 species from Trilliaceae sensu lato (Trillium kamtschaticum, T. sessile, Daiswa polyphylla, Kinugasa japonica, Paris tetraphylla, Scoliopus bigelovii, S. hallii, and Medeola virginiana) and 10 other species from Liliaceae sensu lato [7].
  • Three mannose-specific lectins exhibiting considerable similarities in NH2-terminal amino acid sequence were isolated from leaves of the Chinese daffodil Narcissus tazetta (Family Amaryllidaceae) [8].
 

Associations of Liliaceae with chemical compounds

 

Gene context of Liliaceae

  • Primary transcripts of ndhD of Liliaceae and Aloaceae require editing of the start and 20th codons [14].
  • Rhizomes of five identified plants of the Paris species, Liliaceae, and Rhizoma Paridis which are sold as a crude drug named "Zao Xiu," "Qiyeyizhihua" or other names in nine different markets in China were tested for their effects on cultured cardiomyocytes [15].
  • Twenty of 23 primer pairs were also functional in three monocot species of the Liliaceae [onion (Allium cepa L.) and garlic (Allium sativum L.)], and the Poaceae [oat (Avena sativa L.)] [16].
  • Phytochemical investigation of Hippeastrum vittatum growing in Egypt. Part II. Isolation and identification of new alkaloids [17].
  • Antiplasmodial and antioxidant isofuranonaphthoquinones from the roots of Bulbine capitata [18].
