Mutations in coenzyme Q10 biosynthetic genes [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2007 Although it was first described in 1989, our understanding of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) deficiency is only now coming of age with the recent first description of the underlying molecular defects. The diverse clinical presentations, classifiable into four major syndromes, raise the question as to whether the deficiencies are primary or secondary.

Anthocyanin biosynthetic genes in Brassica rapa [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2014 Anthocyanins are a group of flavonoid compounds. As a group of important secondary metabolites, they perform several key biological functions in plants. Anthocyanins also play beneficial health roles as potentially protective factors against cancer and heart disease.

Identification of target genes of the bZIP transcription factor OsTGAP1, whose overexpression causes elicitor-induced hyperaccumulation of diterpenoid phytoalexins in rice cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Phytoalexins are specialised antimicrobial metabolites that are produced by plants in response to pathogen attack. Momilactones and phytocassanes are the major diterpenoid phytoalexins in rice and are synthesised from geranylgeranyl diphosphate, which is
