Structural identification of catalytic His158 of PtMAC2p from Pseudozyma tsukubaensis, an acyltransferase involved in mannosylerythritol lipids formation

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs) are extracellular glycolipids produced by the basidiomycetous yeast strains. MELs consist of the disaccharide mannosylerythritol, which is acylated with fatty acids and acetylated at the mannose moiety.

Engineered Production of Hydroxycinnamoyl Tyramine Conjugates Limits the Growth of the Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae in Arabidopsis

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroxycinnamoyl tyramine conjugates are phenolamides produced by plants in response to pathogen attack and biotic stresses. Their proposed mechanisms of action include cytotoxicity towards pathogens, cell wall reinforcement to restrict pathogen proliferation, and signaling activity to trigger general stress responses.

Phenolic compounds in species of the Blechnaceae

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 282-291, January 2026.
The occurrence of caffeic acid derivatives in 32 species of Blechnaceae revealed differences in the presence of rosmarinic acid and blechnic acid B, a novel compound in ferns. Abstract Rosmarinic acid and other caffeic and 4‐coumaric acid derivatives are widespread in land plants.

White Light Enhances Adhesive Strength Between Epidermal and Inner Tissues of Pea Epicotyls via Accumulation of Cell Wall‐Bound p‐Coumaric Acid

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT The epidermal and inner tissues of stem organs adhere via the cell wall, and the adhesion of both tissues is involved in the structural integrity of the stem. We have developed a method to quantitatively measure adhesive strength between these tissues.

Red Clover HDT, a BAHD Hydroxycinnamoyl-Coenzyme A:L-3,4-Dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) Hydroxycinnamoyl Transferase That Synthesizes Clovamide and Other N-Hydroxycinnamoyl-Aromatic Amino Acid Amides

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Red clover leaves accumulate high levels (up to 1 to 2% of dry matter) of two caffeic acid derivatives: phaselic acid (2-O-caffeoyl-L-malate) and clovamide [N-caffeoyl-L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA)].

Polyacylated Delphinidin Biosynthesis Catalysed by PhF3′5′H‐PhBGLU12‐PhSCPL2 Determines the Blue Pigmentation in Cineraria (Pericallis hybrida)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 12, Page 5585-5599, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The polyacylation modification of anthocyanins constitutes a pivotal step for plants to develop persistent bright blue floral pigmentation, but the biosynthesis and regulatory mechanisms of polyacylated anthocyanin remain poorly understood.

Cooperation between a root fungal endophyte and host‐derived coumarin scopoletin mediates Arabidopsis iron nutrition

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 857-871, October 2025.
Summary Iron acquisition is a critical challenge for plants, especially in iron‐deficient soils. Recent research underscores the importance of root‐exuded coumarins in modulating the root microbiome community structure and facilitating iron uptake. However, interactions between root‐associated fungi and coumarins in plant iron nutrition remain unknown.

Transcriptional dynamics of the developing sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) fruit: sequencing, annotation and expression profiling of exocarp-associated genes [PDF]

, 2014
The exocarp, or skin, of fleshy fruit is a specialized tissue that protects the fruit, attracts seed dispersing fruit eaters, and has large economical relevance for fruit quality.
