Mechanism of the Hydroxylation Reactions Catalyzed By 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate Dioxygenase and Hydroxymandelate Synthase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) and Hydroxymandelate synthase (HMS) carry out highly similar complex dioxygenation reactions using the substrates, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate (HPP) and dioxygen.

A Chemical Probe for Increasing Leaf Tocopherol Levels by Coordinated Modulation of Biosynthesis, Competition and Storage

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2204-2219, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant biofortification with phytonutrients typically relies on metabolic engineering strategies known as ‘push’ (enhancing biosynthetic flux), ‘block’ (inhibiting competing pathways) and ‘pull’ (promoting metabolite storage). Here, we describe a novel synthetic compound, X57, that simultaneously targets biosynthesis, competition and storage to

Role of the N-terminus in human 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase activity

open access: yesThe Journal of Biochemistry, 2019
Abstract4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) is a key enzyme in tyrosine catabolism, catalysing the oxidation of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate to homogentisate. Genetic deficiency of this enzyme causes type III tyrosinaemia. The enzyme comprises two barrel-shaped domains formed by the N- and C-termini, with the active site located in the C-terminus ...

Metaproteome Analysis of Short‐Term Thermal Stress in Three Sympatric Coral Species Reveals Divergent Host Responses

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Short‐term thermal stress triggers distinct molecular responses in three sympatric coral species with contrasting thermal resilience. Proteomic and metabolomic profiling reveal both species‐specific and limited shared pathways underlying these stress responses.

Structure of the Human 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvic Acid Dioxygenase Gene (HPD)

open access: yesGenomics, 1994
4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid dioxygenase (HPD) is an important enzyme in tyrosine catabolism in most organisms. The activity of this enzyme is expressed mainly in the liver and developmentally regulated in mammals, and a genetic deficiency in this enzyme in humans and mice leads to hereditary tyrosinemia type 3.

Projected Warming of the Southern Ocean Disrupts Embryonic Development and Hatch Timing in Antarctic Fish

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.
Embryos are particularly sensitive to thermal challenge. Antarctic fish embryos raised at projected Southern Ocean temperatures hatch during the winter, have a high incidence of morphological abnormalities, have shorter body lengths, and express genes indicative of cellular stress.
