Thiohistidine Biosynthesis

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2013
Ergothioneine and ovothiol A are sulfur-containing histidine derivatives produced by microorganisms including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Trypanosoma cruzi or Erwinia amylovora and may also play important roles in human physiology. Based on our recent identification of thiohistidine biosynthetic enzymes from Mycobacterium smegmatis and ...

The nicotinamide hypothesis revisited—plant defense signaling integrating PARP, nicotinamide, nicotinic acid, epigenetics, and glutathione

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NIA) are proposed as stress signaling compounds in plants. Oxidative stress may lead to single strand breaks (SSB) in DNA, which activate poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP). NIC and NIA are then formed from NAD. NIC and NIA can promote epigenetic changes leading to the expression of defense genes specific for the ...

Maritime pine PpMYB8 directly co-regulates secondary cell wall architecture and the associated Phe-biosynthesis pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Plants rely on the biosynthesis of L-Phenylalanine as building block for the synthesis of proteins but also as precursor for a tremendous range of plant-derived compounds essential for its grown, development and defense.

Single cis‐elements in brassinosteroid‐induced upregulated genes are insufficient to recruit both redox states of the BIL1/BZR1 DNA‐binding domain

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phytohormone brassinosteroid‐induced gene regulation by the transcription factor BIL1/BZR1 involves redox‐dependent DNA‐binding alternation and interaction with the transcription factor PIF4. The reduced BIL1/BZR1 dimer binds preferred cis‐elements, while oxidation alters its oligomerization state and disrupts DNA‐binding ability.

Long-chain alkanol–alkyl carboxylic acid-based low-viscosity hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents for one-pot extraction of anthraquinones from Rhei Radix et Rhizoma

open access: yesJournal of Pharmaceutical Analysis, 2022
Natural long-chain alkanol and alkyl carboxylic acid were used to prepare novel hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDESs). These HDESs are liquid at room temperature and have low viscosity (

Further characterization of Dothistromin genes in the fungal forest pathogen Dothistroma septosporum : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science in Molecular Genetics at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Dothistroma septosporum is a forest pathogen that causes a disease called Dothistroma needle blight. The symptoms are thought to be due to the accumulation of dothistromin toxin produced by D. septosporum.

Chemoresistome mapping in individual breast cancer patients unravels diversity in dynamic transcriptional adaptation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study used longitudinal transcriptomics and gene‐pattern classification to uncover patient‐specific mechanisms of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer. Findings reveal preexisting drug‐tolerant states in primary tumors and diverse gene rewiring patterns across patients, converging on a few dysregulated functional modules. Despite receiving the

Diverse biological effects of glycosyltransferase genes from Tartary buckwheat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) is an edible cereal crop whose sprouts have been marketed and commercialized for their higher levels of anti-oxidants, including rutin and anthocyanin. UDP-glucose flavonoid glycosyltransferases (UFGTs)

Biosynthesis of valinomycin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1974
Received 29 March 1974 1. Introduction Valinomycin is a cyclododecadepsipeptide consis- ting of three residues each of L-valine, ~-D-hydroxy- isovaleric acid, D-valine and L-lactic acid joined to- gether by alternating amide and ester linkages [1 ]. The results on the biosynthesis of gramicidin S [2], tyrocidine [3] and alamethicin [4] suggest that ...

Biosynthesis of alamethicin [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1976
1. Introduction Alamethicin is a cyclic octadecapeptide containing 2-methylalanine (aminoisobutyric acid, Aib), an unusual component. All other constituent amino acids are in the Lform. It has the structure [I] : 1 2 3 4 5 Pro - Aib - Ala - Aib - Ala I Gin 18 (y) - Glu - Aib - Aib - Val 17 16 15 ...
