Phenylpropanoid Biosynthesis [PDF]
The general phenylpropanoid metabolism generates an enormous array of secondary metabolites based on the few intermediates of the shikimate pathway as the core unit. The resulting hydroxycinnamic acids and esters are amplified in several cascades by a combination of reductases, oxygenases, and transferases to result in an organ and developmentally ...

Salicylic Acid: Biosynthesis and Signaling.
Salicylic acid (SA) is an essential plant defense hormone that promotes immunity against biotrophic and semibiotrophic pathogens. It plays crucial roles in basal defense and the amplification of local immune responses, as well as the establishment of ...

MYB-Mediated Regulation of Anthocyanin Biosynthesis
Anthocyanins are natural water-soluble pigments that are important in plants because they endow a variety of colors to vegetative tissues and reproductive plant organs, mainly ranging from red to purple and blue. The colors regulated by anthocyanins give

Ginsenosides in Panax genus and their biosynthesis
Ginsenosides are a series of glycosylated triterpenoids which belong to protopanaxadiol (PPD)-, protopanaxatriol (PPT)-, ocotillol (OCT)- and oleanane (OA)-type saponins known as active compounds of Panax genus. They are accumulated in plant roots, stems,

Oxytetracycline Biosynthesis [PDF]
Oxytetracycline (OTC) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that acts by inhibiting protein synthesis in bacteria. It is an important member of the bacterial aromatic polyketide family, which is a structurally diverse class of natural products. OTC is synthesized by a type II polyketide synthase that generates the poly-beta-ketone backbone through successive ...

Effects of cadmium stress on seed germination and physiological-biochemical characteristics in okra: a comparative study of red and green varieties [PDF]
Previous study has demonstrated that okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) is capable of accumulating cadmium (Cd) in both plants and fruits. However, there is still little known about the physiological responses of different okra cultivars to Cd ...

Salicylic Acid Biosynthesis in Plants
Salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone that is best known for mediating host responses upon pathogen infection. Its role in plant defense activation is well established, but its biosynthesis in plants is not fully understood.

Repressors of anthocyanin biosynthesis.
Anthocyanins play a variety of adaptive roles in both vegetative tissues and reproductive organs of plants. The broad functionality of these compounds requires sophisticated regulation of the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway to allow proper localization,
