Biosynthetic Pathways of Brassinolide in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Abstract Our previous studies on the endogenous brassinosteroids (BRs) in Arabidopsis have provided suggestive evidence for the operation of the early C6-oxidation and the late C6-oxidation pathways, leading to brassinolide (BL) in Arabidopsis.

Biosynthetic pathway of desmosines in elastin [PDF]
1. Elastins purified by various methods from the ligamentum nuchae and the lungs of cattle of various ages were analysed for amino acid compositions and lysine-derived cross-links. 2. In fully mature elastins from adults the main cross-links were desmosine, isodesmosine and lysinonorleucine and the so-called aldol-condensation product. Trace amounts of

Characterization of gossypol biosynthetic pathway [PDF]
Significance Cotton is an important crop, and terpenoids form the largest group of natural products. Gossypol and related sesquiterpene aldehydes in cotton function as phytoalexins against pathogens and pests but pose human health concerns, as cotton oil is still widely used as vegetable oil. We report the isolation and identification
