The Arabidopsis NPR1 Protein Is a Receptor for the Plant Defense Hormone Salicylic Acid

open access: yesCell Reports, 2012
Salicylic acid (SA) is an essential hormone in plant immunity, but its receptor has remained elusive for decades. The transcriptional coregulator NPR1 is central to the activation of SA-dependent defense genes, and we previously found that Cys521 and ...

Acid α-galactosidase is involved in D-chiro-inositol accumulation during tartary buckwheat germination

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2015
Tartary buckwheat seed and especially its sprouts are rich in D-chiro-inositol (DCI). The research was to evaluate when DCI was most accumulated in tartary buckwheat sprouts. In addition, we explored the activity and expression pattern of α-galactosidase

C–C (alkynylation) vs C–O (ether) bond formation under Pd/C–Cu catalysis: synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of 4-alkynylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2011
The Pd/C–CuI–PPh3 catalytic system facilitated C–C bond formation between 4-chlorothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines and terminal alkynes in methanol with high selectivity without generating any significant side products arising from C–O bond formation between the
