Novel Biocatalysts from Specialized Metabolism
Enzymes are increasingly valuable as biocatalysts in synthetic chemistry. Many novel biocatalysts have emerged from the study of secondary metabolism, where rare and unusual reactions take place. In this review, we explore biocatalysts that address various synthetic challenges, including cyclization, C−H functionalization, and cross‐coupling, among ...

Acetylation‐Deacetylation‐Driven Natural Product Biosynthesis
This review summarizes the role of acetylation‐deacetylation in natural product biosynthesis, including acetylation followed by deacetylation after several biosynthetic steps, acetylation‐mediated rearrangement, acetylation‐triggered elimination, and the acetylation cycle as a regulatory mechanism. These processes are vital for the formation of complex

Do Fungicides Affect Alkaloid Production in Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don. Seedlings?
The presence of endophytes in plants is undeniable, but how significant their involvement is in the host plant biosynthetic pathways is still unclear. The results reported from fungicide treatments in plants varied. Fungicide treatment in Taxus was found
