The Oxidosqualene Cyclase from the Oomycete Saprolegnia parasitica Synthesizes Lanosterol as a Single Product [PDF]
The first committed step of sterol biosynthesis is the cyclisation of 2,3-oxidosqualene to form either lanosterol (LA) or cycloartenol (CA). This is catalyzed by an oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC). LA and CA are subsequently converted into various sterols by

Resistens over for sædskiftesygdomme i frøbælgplanter - er det muligt? [PDF]
Sædskiftesygdomme i frøbælgplanter holdes traditionelt nede med flere dyrkningsfrie år mellem samme art. I FØJO-projektet GRAINLEG, der er et samarbejde mellem DJF Flakkebjerg, KVL og Toft Planteforædling, arbejder vi med at forbedre resistensen overfor ...

Cross-regulations between N-metabolism and Nitric Oxide (NO) signaling during plant immunity
Plants are sessile organisms that have evolved a complex immune system which helps them cope with pathogen attacks. However, the capacity of a plant to mobilize different defense responses is strongly affected by its physiological status. Nitrogen (N) is

A molecular insight into algal-oomycete warfare: cDNA analysis of Ectocarpus siliculosus infected with the basal oomycete Eurychasma dicksonii [PDF]
Brown algae are the predominant primary producers in coastal habitats, and like land plants are subject to disease and parasitism. Eurychasma dicksonii is an abundant, and probably cosmopolitan, obligate biotrophic oomycete pathogen of marine brown algae.
