Two BAHD Acyltransferases Catalyze the Last Step in the Shikonin/Alkannin Biosynthetic Pathway [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2020
Several Boraginaceae plants produce biologically active red naphthoquinone pigments, derivatives of the enantiomers shikonin and alkannin, which vary in acyl groups on their side chains. Compositions of shikonin/alkannin derivatives vary in plant species, but the mechanisms generating the diversity of shikonin/alkannin derivatives are largely unknown ...

Mechanistic basis for the emergence of EPS1 as a catalyst in salicylic acid biosynthesis of Brassicaceae [PDF]

Nature Communications
Salicylic acid (SA) production in Brassicaceae plants is uniquely accelerated from isochorismate by EPS1, a newly identified enzyme in the BAHD acyltransferase family.

Comparative Proteomic Analysis of Self-Compatible <i>Turnera</i> Mutants Suggests <i>Glutathione S-Transferase 8</i> Is Involved in Overcoming S-Morph Female Self-Incompatibility Response. [PDF]

Plant Direct
ABSTRACT Distyly is a reproductive system, characterized by the presence of two floral morphs, which promotes outcrossing via physical and biochemical means. In distylous Turnera, the mating type of the S‐morph is determined by two genes: YUC6 (male) and BAHD (female).

Crystal Structure of Vinorine Synthase, the First Representative of the BAHD Superfamily [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
Vinorine synthase is an acetyltransferase that occupies a central role in the biosynthesis of the antiarrhythmic monoterpenoid indole alkaloid ajmaline in the plant Rauvolfia. Vinorine synthase belongs to the benzylalcohol acetyl-, anthocyanin-O-hydroxy-cinnamoyl-, anthranilate-N-hydroxy-cinnamoyl/benzoyl-, deacetylvindoline acetyltransferase (BAHD ...

A BAHD neofunctionalization promotes tetrahydroxycinnamoyl spermine accumulation in the pollen coats of the Asteraceae family [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2018
In eudicotyledons, accumulation of trihydroxycinnamoyl spermidine that is restricted to the pollen wall constitutes an evolutionary conserved trait. However, the role of this compound, which is synthetized by the BAHD enzyme spermidine hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (SHT), is still a matter of debate.

Identification and characterization of a set of monocot BAHD monolignol transferases [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2022
Abstract Plant BAHD acyltransferases perform a wide range of enzymatic tasks in primary and secondary metabolism. Acyl-CoA monolignol transferases, which couple a CoA substrate to a monolignol creating an ester linkage, represent a more recent class of such acyltransferases.

Identification of BAHD acyltransferases associated with acylinositol biosynthesis in Solanum quitoense (naranjilla)

Plant Direct, 2022
Abstract Plants make a variety of specialized metabolites that can mediate interactions with animals, microbes, and competitor plants. Understanding how plants synthesize these compounds enables studies of their biological roles by manipulating their synthesis in vivo as well as producing them in vitro. Acylsugars

BAHD acyltransferase from dragon fruit enables production of phyllocactin in engineered yeast. [PDF]

FEMS Yeast Res
Abstract Microbial fermentation can provide a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional plant extraction to produce natural food colours. Betalains are a class of yellow to red water-soluble pigments. Even though over 80 betalain variants are known, betanin is the only betalain available as a food colourant on the market.
