Biosynthesis and Translocation of Diosgenin in Costus speciosus
Journal of Plant Physiology, 1987Summary Radio-actively labelled free and conjugated diosgenin was isolated from different parts such as stem, leaf, seeds, flowers, and rhizomes of Costus speciosus after feeding 14C mevalonate, diosgenin, and diosgenin glycoside through different parts in separate sets of experiments.

Diosgenin as a triterpene with numbers of pharmaceutical applications has been identified in Trigonella foenum-graceum. In this survey, in order to scale up the amount of diosgenin in Fenugreek as a promising alternative of yam, ∆24-reductase as a rate limiting enzyme in diosgenin biosynthesis pathway has been overexpressed by utilizing pBI121 ...

Dioscorea zingiberensis is the main plant source of diosgenin, a precursor for the production of steroid hormones used in the pharmaceutical industry. The extraction process of diosgenin from D. zingiberensis can generate high-acid and high-strength wastewater on a large scale and can threaten the environment.

Biosynthesis of diosgenin from 26-hydroxycholesterol in dioscorea floribunda
Phytochemistry, 1970Abstract 26-Hydroxycholesterol-26- 14 C was converted by a Dioscorea floribunda plant to diosgenin. This result suggests that oxygenation at C-26 may be the first step in the biosynthesis of diosgenin from cholesterol. No diosgenin was formed from kryptogenin-26- 14 C by D.

Biosynthesis of diosgenin in Dioscorea tubers
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1961Abstract The incorporation of radioacetate into diosgenin by homogenates of Dioscorea floribunda has been demonstrated by rigorous purification of the isolated sapogenin. Mevalonic acid is not incorporated into diosgenin to any significant extent under these conditions.

Cholesterol serves as a key precursor for many high-value chemicals such as plant-derived steroidal saponins and steroidal alkaloids, but a plant chassis for effective biosynthesis of high levels of cholesterol has not been established. Plant chassis have significant advantages over microbial chassis in terms of membrane protein expression, precursor ...
