| Abstract | A lipoxygenase-free soybean mutant line (H70) induced by gamma ray was selected and its detailed information about the lipoxygenase was analyzed by comparison of DNA sequence. Soybean seeds contain three lipoxygenase enzymes, which induce a beany or grassy flavor. The elimination of lipoxygenases can reduce the poor stability and off-flavors of soybean oil and protein products. In this study, we selected a soybean mutant (H70) in which the three lipoxygenases had been mutated using gamma rays. To obtain detailed information about the lipoxygenase, we investigated the sequences of the Lox1, Lox2 and Lox3 genes in H70 compared to the original cultivar, Hwanggum. Comparisons of the sequences of the Lox1 and Lox2 genes in H70 with those in a line with normal lipoxygenase (HG) showed that the mutations in these genes affected a highly conserved group of six histidine residues necessary for enzymatic activity. Lox1 in H70 contained a 74 bp deletion in exon 8, creating a stop codon that prematurely terminates translation. A single point mutation (T-A) in exon 8 of Lox2 changed histidine (H532, one of the iron-binding ligands essential for Lox2 activity) to glutamine. The mutation in the Lox3 gene in H70 was a single-point mutation in exon 6 (A-G), which changed the amino acid from histidine to arginine. This amino acid alteration in Lox3 was located in the N-terminal barrel, which might play a role in molecular recognition during catalysis and/or proteolysis. These results suggest that gene analysis based on DNA sequencing could be useful for elucidating the lipoxygenase content in soybean mutant lines. Additionally, the soybean mutant line selected in this study could be used to develop soybean cultivars with improved flavor. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
