The preparation of synthetic mustard oil glycosides and the specificity of the myrosinase system by Robert D Gaines A THESIS Submitted to the Graduate Faculty I N PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry Montana State University © Copyright by Robert D Gaines (1960) Abstract: Synthetic mustard oil glycosides were prepared and characterized IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THE SPECIFICITY OF THE GLYCOSIDIC ENZYME FOUND IN THE MYROSI NASE SYSTEM. THESE GLYCOSIDES CONTAINED IN THE GLYCONE MOIETY GLUCOSE, GALACTOSE, MANNOSE AND XYLOSE. THE SYNTHETIC GLUCOSE COMPOUND WAS FOUND TO BE IDENTICAL WITH THE NATURALLY OCCURRING MUSTARD OIL GLUCOS I DE, GLUCOTROPAEOL I N. During purification of the myrosinase system, there was observed TWO ACTIVE FRACTIONS, A THIOGLUCOSIDASE AND A FACTOR POSSESSING SULFA-TASE ACTIVITY. A BRIEF CHARACTERIZATION OF THE LATTER FACTOR WAS MADE AND INDICATED A DEFINITE SPECIFICITY FOR SULFATE ESTERS OF THE TYPE EXISTING IN THE MUSTARD OIL COMPOUNDS. The SPECIFICITY OF THE MUSTARD THIOGLUCOSIDASE WAS FOUND NOT TO BE AS ABSOLUTE AS PREVIOUS REPORTS HAD INDICATED. THE ENZYME SHOWED A DEFINITE PREFERENCE FOR THE GLUCOSE MOIETY AS THE GLYCONE GROUP, BUT IT POSSESSED AN OVERALL ACTIVITY VERY SIMILAR TO THE β-GLUCOSIDASE OF ALMOND EMULSIN. IT WAS FOUND THAT THE MUSTARD ENZYME WOULD, UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, HYDROLYZE β-GLUCOSIDES AND β-THIOGLUCOSIDES, IN ADDITION TO THE MUSTARD OIL DERIVATIVES. THESE RESULTS WERE INTERPRETED AS MEANING THAT THE ACTUAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A THIOGLUCOSIDASE AND A GLUCOSIDASE IS PROBABLY RATHER LIMITED.
