Mutant-based model of two independent pathways for carotenoid-mediated chloroplast biogenesis in Arabidopsis embryos [PDF]
Chloroplasts are essential for autonomous plant growth, and their biogenesis is a complex process requiring both plastid and nuclear genome. One of the essential factors required for chloroplast biogenesis are carotenoids.

Interplay of the two ancient metabolites auxin and MEcPP regulates adaptive growth. [PDF]
The ancient morphoregulatory hormone auxin dynamically realigns dedicated cellular processes that shape plant growth under prevailing environmental conditions. However, the nature of the stress-responsive signal altering auxin homeostasis remains elusive.

Sucrose intake elevates erythritol in plasma and urine in male mice.
BACKGROUND Elevated serum erythritol is a predictive biomarker of diabetes and cardiovascular incidence and complications. Erythritol is synthesized endogenously from glucose, but little is known regarding the origin of elevated circulating erythritol in

Maltosyl-erythritol, a Major Transglycosylation Product of Erythritol byBacillus stearothermophilusMaltogenic Amylase [PDF]
This study was done to modify erythritol to change its physicochemical and sensory properties. Erythritol, a four-carbon sugar alcohol, was transglycosylated by Bacillus stearothermophilus maltogenic amylase with maltotriose as a donor molecule. The presence of various transglycosylation products of erythritol was confirmed by TLC and high performance ...
