Functional Characterization of a Hydroxyacid/Alcohol Hydroxycinnamoyl Transferase Produced by the Liverwort Marchantia emarginata

Molecules, 2017
The aerial organs of most terrestrial plants are covered by a hydrophobic protective cuticle. The main constituent of the cuticle is the lipid polyester cutin, which is composed of aliphatic and aromatic domains.

Genomics and biochemical analyses reveal a metabolon key to β-L-ODAP biosynthesis in Lathyrus sativus

Nature Communications, 2023
Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) is a rich source of protein cultivated as an insurance crop in Ethiopia, Eritrea, India, Bangladesh, and Nepal. Its resilience to both drought and flooding makes it a promising crop for ensuring food security in a changing

DataSheet_1_A BAHD acyltransferase contributes to the biosynthesis of both ethyl benzoate and methyl benzoate in the flowers of Lilium oriental hybrid ‘Siberia’.pdf

, 2023
Lily is a popular flower worldwide due to its elegant appearance and pleasant fragrance. Floral volatiles of lily are predominated by monoterpenes and benzenoids. While a number of genes for monoterpene biosynthesis have been characterized, the molecular

Engineering Alfalfa to Produce 2-O-Caffeoyl-L-Malate (Phaselic Acid) for Preventing Post-harvest Protein Loss via Oxidation by Polyphenol Oxidase

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Many plants accumulate high levels of hydroxycinnamoyl esters and amides in their tissues, presumably to protect against biotic and abiotic stress. Red clover (Trifolium pretense) leaves accumulate high levels [5–15 mmol/kg fresh weight (FW)] of caffeic ...

The Fungal Pathogen Fusarium graminearum Can Hydrolyse Tryptamine‐Derived Hydroxy‐Cinnamic Acid Amide Defence Compounds, and Generates Highly Increased Auxin Levels in Wheat via Copper Amine‐Oxidases

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Fusarium graminearum can cleave tryptamine‐derived hydroxycinnamic acid amides and convert the released tryptamine into auxin, suppressing plant defence responses; aoxΔ7—septuple knockout of copper amine oxidases blocks auxin formation. ABSTRACT The important cereal pathogen Fusarium graminearum is not only able to produce trichothecene toxins, like ...

Biotransormations with plant coenzyme A-dependent acyltransferases [PDF]

, 2008
The acylation of plant natural products is widely observed in nature and this modification often confers novel bioactivities. In nature, each of these acylations is selectively catalysed by a coenzyme A-dependent acyltransferase and biotransformations ...

Apple scar skin viroid causes dapple and scar skin apple diseases by disrupting phenylpropanoid‐mediated metabolic pathways

New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
Dapple apple and scar skin apple diseases are closely associated with suppression of anthocyanin biosynthesis and enhancement of suberin biosynthesis. Apple scar skin viroid (ASSVd) infection represses anthocyanin biosynthesis in apple callus. Abstract Apple scar skin viroid (ASSVd) causes dapple and scar skin apple diseases, posing serious threats to ...

An acyltransferase gene that putatively functions in anthocyanin modification was horizontally transferred from Fabaceae into the genus Cuscuta

Plant Diversity, 2016
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) refers to the flow of genetic materials to non-offspring, and occasionally HGT in plants can improve the adaptation of organisms in new niches due to expanded metabolic capability.
