A conserved strategy of chalcone isomerase-like protein to rectify promiscuous chalcone synthase specificity [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2020
Chalcone synthase is the first committed enzyme in the plant flavonoid biosynthesis pathway, yet shows low product specificity in vitro. Here Waki et al.

Molecular mechanism underlying regulation of chalcone synthase by chalcone isomerase-like protein [PDF]

Nature Communications
Flavonoids are essential for plant growth and environmental adaptation. Chalcone synthase (CHS) directs metabolic flux into flavonoid biosynthesis, but its catalytic promiscuity limits the biosynthetic efficiency.

E183K Mutation in Chalcone Synthase C2 Causes Protein Aggregation and Maize Colorless [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Flavonoids give plants their rich colors and play roles in a number of physiological processes. In this study, we identified a novel colorless maize mutant showing reduced pigmentation throughout the whole life cycle by EMS mutagenesis. E183K mutation in

Comparative Molecular Mechanisms of Biosynthesis of Naringenin and Related Chalcones in Actinobacteria and Plants: Relevance for the Obtention of Potent Bioactive Metabolites

Antibiotics, 2022
Naringenin and its glycosylated derivative naringin are flavonoids that are synthesized by the phenylpropanoid pathway in plants. We found that naringenin is also formed by the actinobacterium Streptomyces clavuligerus, a well-known microorganism used to

Analysis of Chalcone Synthase and Chalcone Isomerase Gene Expression in Pigment Production Pathway at Different Flower Colors of Petunia Hybrida [PDF]

Journal of Cell and Molecular Research, 2016
Variegation in flower color is commonly observed in many plant species and also occurs on petunia (Petunia hybrida) as an ornamental plant. Variegated plants are highly valuable in the floricultural market.
