C-26 and C-30 apocarotenoids from seeds of Ditaxis heterantha with antioxidant activity and protection against DNA oxidative damage

, 2006
The hexane extracts of seeds of Ditaxis heterantha afforded two new apocarotenoids whose structures corresponded to methyl 3-oxo-12?-apo- ?-caroten-12?-oate (1) (heteranthin) and methyl 3?,6?- epoxy-5?-hydroxy-4,5-dihydro-8?-apo-?-caroten-8?-oate (2 ...

Desiccation tolerance in the resurrection plant Barbacenia graminifolia involves changes in redox metabolism and carotenoid oxidation

Frontiers in Plant Science
Desiccation tolerance in vegetative tissues enables resurrection plants to remain quiescent under severe drought and rapidly recover full metabolism once water becomes available.

Structural substitutions on the methoxybenzene ring retain the biological activity of the zaxinone mimics MiZax3

Frontiers in Plant Science
The plant growth regulator zaxinone is essential for proper rice growth and development. Additionally, zaxinone and its two synthetic mimics, MiZax3 and MiZax5, have been shown to significantly promote crop growth and reduce infestation by the root ...

Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase 1 and Its Application for the Production of C13-Apocarotenoids in Microbial Cell Factories: A Review

C13-apocarotenoids are naturally derived from the C9–C10 (C9′–C10′) double-bond cleavage of carotenoids by carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs). As high-value flavors and fragrances in the food and cosmetic industries, the sustainable production of ...

Tomato carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases 1A and 1B: Relaxed double bond specificity leads to a plenitude of dialdehydes, mono-apocarotenoids and isoprenoid volatiles

, 2014
The biosynthetic processes leading to many of the isoprenoid volatiles released by tomato fruits are still unknown, though previous reports suggested a clear correlation with the carotenoids contained within the fruit.

Isolation and phytotoxicity of apocarotenoids from Chenopodium album. Journal of Natural Products

, 2004
Two new compounds (1, 2) and 16 apocarotenoids (3-18) were isolated from the weed Chenopodium album. The structures of new apocarotenoids were determined to be (3R,6R,7E,9E,11E)-3-hydroxy-13- apo-R-caroten-13-one (1) and (6S,7E,9E,11E)-3-oxo-13-apo-R ...
