Application

Sinigrin, a glucosinolate, is used as a systrate to identify, differentiate and characterize myrosinase(s)/thioglucoside glucohydrolase(s)/thioglucosidase(s). Sinigrin is used as a reference material in procedures for the isolation and identification of glucosinolates.

Biochem/physiol Actions

A β-D-thioglucopyranoside occurring in black mustard seeds and horseradish root. Substrate for thioglucosidase.

The present study investigated the function of sinigrin in angiotensin II (Ang II)‑induced renal damage. The results demonstrated that systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were increased in Ang II‑challenged rats, and sinigrin treatment inhibited their increase. The levels of blood

The forces that maintain genetic diversity among individuals and diversity among species are usually studied separately. Nevertheless, diversity at one of these levels may depend on the diversity at the other. We have combined observations of natural populations, quantitative genetics

Although reciprocal evolutionary responses between interacting species are a driving force behind the diversity of life, pairwise coevolution between plant competitors has received less attention than other species interactions and has been considered relatively less important in explaining ecological patterns.

Sinigrin (SIN) and allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) are compounds found in high concentrations in Brassica family vegetables, especially in Brussels sprouts. Recently, they have been used as a nutrition supplement for their preventive and medicinal effect on some types of cancer
