Modification of plant cell walls with hydroxycinnamic acids by BAHD acyltransferases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
In the last decade it has become clear that enzymes in the “BAHD” family of acyl-CoA transferases play important roles in the addition of phenolic acids to form ester-linked moieties on cell wall polymers.

Altered Metabolism in Knockdown Lines of Two HXXXD/BAHD Acyltransferases During Wound Healing in Potato Tubers

open access: yesPlants
Suberin biosynthesis involves the coordinated regulation of both phenolic and aliphatic metabolisms. HXXXD/BAHD acyltransferases occupy a unique place in suberization, as they function to crosslink phenolic and aliphatic monomers during suberin assembly.

The Unique Role of the ECERIFERUM2-LIKE Clade of the BAHD Acyltransferase Superfamily in Cuticular Wax Metabolism

open access: yesPlants, 2017
The elongation of very-long-chain fatty acids is a conserved process used for the production of many metabolites, including plant cuticular waxes. The elongation of precursors of the most abundant cuticular wax components of some plants, however, is ...

Identification and Characterization of Five BAHD Acyltransferases Involved in Hydroxycinnamoyl Ester Metabolism in Chicory [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Chicory (Cichorium intybus) accumulates caffeic acid esters with important significance for human health. In this study, we aim at a better understanding of the biochemical pathway of these bioactive compounds. Detailed metabolic analysis reveals that C.

Identification and characterization of BAHD hydroxycinnamoyltransferases in the fern Neoblechnum brasiliense. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant J
Significance Statement Nine BAHD acyltransferases have been identified and characterized in the fern Neoblechnum brasiliense transferring hydroxycinnamoyl units onto various alcohol and amine acceptor substrates. Kinetic characterization showed that shikimic and quinic acids for ester formation as well as 3‐hydroxyanthranilic acid and tryptamine for ...

Silencing of a BAHD acyltransferase in sugarcane increases biomass digestibility [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) covers vast areas of land (around 25 million ha worldwide), and its processing is already linked into infrastructure for producing bioethanol in many countries.

Identification of BAHD-acyltransferase enzymes involved in ingenane diterpenoid biosynthesis. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Summary 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.

Differential phylogenetic expansions in BAHD acyltransferases across five angiosperm taxa and evidence of divergent expression among Populus paralogues

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background BAHD acyltransferases are involved in the synthesis and elaboration of a wide variety of secondary metabolites. Previous research has shown that characterized proteins from this family fall broadly into five major clades and contain two ...
