Disease relevance of Vicia faba

 

High impact information on Vicia faba

  • To analyze sugar transport processes during seed development of fava bean, we cloned cDNAs encoding one sucrose and one hexose transporter, designated VfSUT1 and VfSTP1, respectively. sugar uptake activity was confirmed after heterologous expression in yeast [5].
  • A role for sugar transporters during seed development: molecular characterization of a hexose and a sucrose carrier in fava bean seeds [5].
  • CO(2)-triggered chloride release from guard cells in intact fava bean leaves. Kinetics of the onset of stomatal closure [6].
  • The interaction between one particular rhizobial symbiotic genotype and fava bean seems to be highly specific for nodulation and linked to the efficiency of nitrogen fixation [7].
  • Rats consuming lupin or faba bean globulins excreted significantly more nitrogen, particularly as urea through the urine [8].

Gene context of Vicia faba

  • The results are consistent with a causal role of divicine/isouramil in the genesis of the hemolytic crisis occurring in G6PD-deficient subjects after fava bean ingestion [17].
  • Concanavalin A (Con A) and agglutinins from the pea (PSA), lentil (LCH), and fava bean (VFA) constitute a group of D-mannose/D-glucose binding legume lectins [18].
  • In the present study, plasma lipid concentrations were determined at different times after admission in sera from G6PD-deficient children during haemolytic crisis induced by fava bean ingestion [19].
  • The incidence of the haemolytic episodes was found to peak in April, while the fava bean season extends from February to June [20].
  • Normal levels of antioxidant enzymes were found in all subjects examined both with positive and negative histories of haemolytic crisis after fava bean or drug ingestion [21].
