| Research Abstract |
Oleuropein, a secoiridoid glycoside, found in several Oleaceae species such as the olive tree and privet tree. The activated iridoid glycoside has adverse effects against herbivores by decreasing the nutritive value of plant protein. Nevertheless the activation pathway has not been clearly proven yet. To investigate the physiological function of iridoid glycoside in chemical defense, we purified a β-GH from olive fruit and characterized the enzymatic activity of an olive β-GH and cloning the cDNA of olive β-GH
