Does abscisic acid affect strigolactone biosynthesis? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Strigolactones are considered a novel class of plant hormones that, in addition to their endogenous signalling function, are exuded into the rhizosphere acting as a signal to stimulate hyphal branching of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and germination

Ethylene-activated PpERF105 induces the expression of the repressor-type R2R3-MYB gene PpMYB140 to inhibit anthocyanin biosynthesis in red pear fruit.

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2020
Ethylene induces anthocyanin biosynthesis in most fruits, including apple, strawberry, and plum. However, ethylene inhibits anthocyanin biosynthesis in pear, but the underlying molecular mechanism has not been characterized.

Cis‐unsaturated sphingolipids support growth of sphingoid base‐deficient yeast but impair plasma membrane integrity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Sphingoid base structures, the sphingolipid backbones, vary among species. We established yeast cells in which the native sphingoid base was replaced with plant‐type bases containing cis or trans double bonds. This is, to our knowledge, the first eukaryotic model mostly composed of sphingolipids containing cis‐unsaturated sphingoid base, providing a ...

Efficient biosynthesis of heterodimeric C3-aryl pyrroloindoline alkaloids

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The hexahydropyrrolo[2, 3-b]indole (HPI) framework is found in many natural products. Here, the authors discover a P450 enzyme and develop a whole-cell biocatalysis system that produces the HPI naseseazine C (NAS-C) and 30 NAS-C analogs, several of which

Pathological convergence of APP and SNCA deficiency in hippocampal degeneration of young rats

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
The common pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) has been supported by biochemical, genetic and molecular evidence. Mitochondrial dysfunction is considered to be the common pathology in early AD and PD.

The role of the phosphopantetheinyltransferase enzyme, PswP, in the biosynthesis of antimicrobial secondary metabolites by Serratia marcescens Db10 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Phosphopantetheinyltransferase (PPTase) enzymes fulfil essential roles in primary and secondary metabolism in prokaryotes, archaea and eukaryotes. PPTase enzymes catalyse the essential modification of the carrier protein domain of fatty acid synthases ...

Regulation of Lignin Biosynthesis and Its Role in Growth-Defense Tradeoffs

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Plant growth-defense tradeoffs are fundamental for optimizing plant performance and fitness in a changing biotic/abiotic environment. This process is thought to involve readjusting resource allocation to different pathways.

Microbial profile of the appendix niche in acute appendicitis: a novel sampling approach

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study utilized a novel sampling method, ERAT (i.e. endoscopic retrograde appendicitis treatment)‐guided lumen aspiration, to obtain samples from the appendix, and shotgun metagenomic sequencing was performed for in situ characterization of the appendix microbiome in patients with acute appendicitis.

In Vitro CRISPR/Cas9 System for Efficient Targeted DNA Editing

open access: yesmBio, 2015
The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) system, an RNA-guided nuclease for specific genome editing in vivo, has been adopted in a wide variety of organisms.

Carbocations and the Complex Flavor and Bouquet of Wine: Mechanistic Aspects of Terpene Biosynthesis in Wine Grapes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Computational chemistry approaches for studying the formation of terpenes/terpenoids in wines are presented, using five particular terpenes/terpenoids (1,8-cineole, α-ylangene, botrydial, rotundone, and the wine lactone), volatile compounds (or their ...
