Identification of a catalase-phenol oxidase in betalain biosynthesis in red amaranth (Amaranthus cruentus) [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Betalains are a group of nitrogen-containing pigments that color plants in most families of Caryophyllales. Their biosynthesis has long been proposed to begin with hydroxylation of L-tyrosine to L-DOPA through monophenolase activity of tyrosinase, but ...

The evolution of betalain biosynthesis in Caryophyllales [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2019 SummaryWithin the angiosperm order Caryophyllales, an unusual class of pigments known as betalains can replace the otherwise ubiquitous anthocyanins. In contrast to the phenylalanine‐derived anthocyanins, betalains are tyrosine‐derived pigments which contain the chromophore betalamic acid. The origin of betalain pigments within Caryophyllales and their

“La Vie en Rose”: Biosynthesis, Sources, and Applications of Betalain Pigments [PDF]
Molecular Plant, 2018 Betalains are tyrosine-derived red-violet and yellow pigments found exclusively in plants of the Caryophyllales order, which have drawn both scientific and economic interest. Nevertheless, research into betalain chemistry, biochemistry, and function has been limited as comparison with other major classes of plant pigments such as anthocyanins and ...

Transcriptome and Metabolic Profiling Provides Insights into Betalain Biosynthesis and Evolution in Mirabilis jalapa [PDF]
Molecular Plant, 2018 Betalains are tyrosine-derived pigments that occur solely in one plant order, the Caryophyllales, where they largely replace the anthocyanins in a mutually exclusive manner. In this study, we conducted multi-species transcriptome and metabolic profiling in Mirabilis jalapa and additional betalain-producing species to identify candidate genes possibly ...

Soybean Cyst Nematode‐Resistant Protein AATRhg1 Affects Amino Acid Homeostasis and Betalain Accumulation [PDF]
Plant DirectAmino acid transporters play crucial roles in plant nitrogen metabolism but also in defense responses. AATRhg1, an apparent amino acid transporter encoded by Glyma.18g022400 (Rhg1‐GmAAT) at the soybean Rhg1 locus, contributes to resistance to soybean ...
