Identification and characterization of BAHD hydroxycinnamoyltransferases in the fern Neoblechnum brasiliense [PDF]
The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 1, April 2026.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 ...

Comparative Proteomic Analysis of Self‐Compatible Turnera Mutants Suggests Glutathione S‐Transferase 8 Is Involved in Overcoming S‐Morph Female Self‐Incompatibility Response [PDF]
Plant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2025.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).

Identification of BAHD‐acyltransferase enzymes involved in ingenane diterpenoid biosynthesis [PDF]
New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 6, Page 2591-2600, September 2025.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.

Phylogenomic and synteny analysis of BAHD and SCP/SCPL gene families reveal their evolutionary histories in plant specialized metabolism [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological SciencesPlant chemical diversity is largely owing to a number of enzymes which catalyse reactions involved in the assembly, and in the subsequent chemical modifications, of the core structures of major classes of plant specialized metabolites. One such reaction is acylation. With this in mind, to study the deep evolutionary history of BAHD
