Grassland Research, EarlyView.Alpine plants use specialized cuticular waxes to survive extreme cold, UV radiation, and drought. This study explores how these waxes adapt to environmental stress, revealing their chemical diversity, biosynthesis, and ecological roles. Understanding these adaptations can inspire innovations in climate‐resilient crops and UV‐protective bioproducts ...

The ester hydrolytic and synthetic activities of X-prolyl dipeptidyl peptidase from Streptococcus thermophilus : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2003 X-prolyl dipeptidyl peptidase (EC 3.4.14.11), or PepX, is a dipeptidase found in most dairy lactic acid bacteria that hydrolyses N-terminal dipeptides from larger peptides where proline is the residue penultimate to the scissile bond.

Agpat6—a novel lipid biosynthetic gene required for triacylglycerol production in mammary epithelium
Journal of Lipid Research, 2006 In analyzing the sequence tags for mutant mouse embryonic stem (ES) cell lines in BayGenomics (a mouse gene-trapping resource), we identified a novel gene, 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase (Agpat6), with sequence similarities to previously ...

Identification of BAHD-acyltransferase enzymes involved in ingenane diterpenoid biosynthesis. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary The plant family Euphorbiaceae is an abundant source of structurally complex diterpenoids, many of which have reported anticancer, anti‐HIV, and anti‐inflammatory activities. Among these, ingenol‐3‐angelate (1a; tradename: Picato®), isolated from Euphorbia peplus, has potent antitumor activity.
