Genome‐based discovery of pachysiphine synthases in Tabernaemontana elegans
Significance Statement While pachysiphine is a monoterpene indole alkaloid of high interest and the precursor of an anti‐Alzheimer compound, its biosynthesis involving the epoxidation of tabersonine remains uncharacterized. By sequencing and assembling the genome of Tabernaemontana elegans, we identified two P450s exhibiting a pachysiphine synthase ...

La protection de la propriété intellectuelle sur le vivant : historique et débats actuels autour des variétés végétales [PDF]
The concept of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) is a very old one, dating at least as for back as the Ancient Greek times. Many examples con be identified as of the XVth century, and most of the European countries hod developed IPR systems by the end ...

SUMMARY Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs) are well known for their ability to catalyze diverse oxidation reactions, playing a significant role in the biosynthesis of various natural products. In the realm of monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs), one of the largest groups of alkaloids in nature, CYPs are integral to reactions such as hydroxylation,

Abstract An attractive flower from the island of Madagascar has in part saved the lives of thousands of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Random mutations and alterations to the genome led to the evolution of genes encoding enzymes, which would provide the periwinkle flower an arsenal of secondary metabolites to survive within the ...

Quantitative analysis of metabolic pathways in Catharanthus roseus hairy roots metabolically engineered for terpenoid indole alkaloid overproduction [PDF]
The important anticancer pharmaceuticals, vinblastine and vincristine, are produced by Catharanthus roseus. Given their cytotoxicity, these valuable alkaloids are produced in very small quantities within the aerial parts of the plant.

Summary In Catharanthus roseus, monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) are produced through the cooperation of four cell types, with final products accumulating in specialized cells known as idioblasts and laticifers. To explore the relationship between cellular differentiation and cell type‐specific MIA metabolism, we analyzed the expression of MIA ...
