Cross‐reaction of chalcone synthase and stilbene synthase overexpressed in Escherichia coli [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1999
Chalcone synthase (CHS) and stilbene synthase (STS) are related plant polyketide synthases belonging to the CHS superfamily. CHS and STS catalyze common condensation reactions of p‐coumaroyl‐CoA and three C2‐units from malonyl‐CoA but different cyclization reactions to produce naringenin chalcone and resveratrol, respectively.

Valerophenone synthase-like chalcone synthase homologues in Humulus lupulus

Biologia plantarum, 2003
Valerophenone synthase homologue of chalcone synthase (CHS) is the first key enzyme described to be involved in the biosynthesis of bitter acids, the compounds produced in hop lupulin glands valuable for the taste of beer. The complete sequence of a novel homologue of CHS chs 4 was isolated from hop.
